Question suzuki lt230 air cooled conversion

Hey, does anyone know if i can make my air cooled lt230, a liquid cooled lt230. and if its possible how would i go about installing a new radiator. Also has anyone tried the big bore kit that turns the 230 into a 260.

dont know about the liquid cooled idea. but i have a my 230 bored to a 270 and boy was it worth it. thing must go atleast 10mph faster and scary torque increase. it was to keep the front down in a race so i used a 13 tooth front srocket instead of the stock 12 so i got even more speed and it still has more torque than with a stack bore

Forget trying to liquid cool it. Not only do you need to mount a radiator, but you would need a water pump of some sort, and a new jug with water passages as well. I have never heard of anyone offering such a kit. Now I am pretty sure that is an air AND oil cooled engine. You might be able to find a way to add a small oil cooler that would help dissipate heat.
