If you put a good heavy duty oil cooler on it, it should be fine.

Not familiar with Sport Quads but most Honda Utilities are air cooled but also have an oil cooler with electric fan. IMHO, I've never had a hitch with the oil cooled system on my Forman, never over heated either. I know of quite a few felleas that have to deal with coolant leaks and stuff, so although its supposed to make the engine more reliable, it is another system to have to deal with if it breaks.
