Hi andto the forum.

I am pretty sure that the motor requires a separate external coolant pump to circulate the coolant.

Unfortunately, as all of the bike conversions I have seen use air cooled motors, there are no details or information on the forum regarding the liquid cooling that I am aware of, so you will need to do some research to figure out what exactly will be required.
