That is odd. :?: You're a true China Rider, recracer; you identified all of the oddball parts.

Crazy.

The text says air cooled in one spot and water cooled in another. In this case both may be correct but not accurate. :?

The new BMW boxers are A/C-L/C hybrids, but the heads are L/C as that's where the heat is. :idea:

Rotax aviation engines are the same. L/C heads A/C cylinders.

The Chinese 'engineers' puzzle me. I shy away from products engineered by the Chinese and prefer accurate clones. They are better copiers than innovators in this arena. :wink:

X2.

I only trust the Chinese to make a faithful copy of a Japanese engine. I become skeptical whenever the Chinese start to innovate, especially with hybrid engines! 8O

That certainly is an interesting engine, Racer. Thank you for sharing your find with us.

This is the type engine I trust the Chinese to manufacture.

I wish Shineray would export some bikes to the United States with this engine!
