If you see fine deep fins on the exterior of the the piston sleeve and cylinder head it's air cooled. A motor with no fins look for a water pump and radiator or heat exchanger . That engine will be water cooled.

Mainly by air but there are exeptions. The Velocette had a water cooled 2 stroke as did the Gardner high speed 2 stroke diesel.

The same way as 4-stroke engines - air or water, depending on the design.

Some are air cooled and some are water cooled. It depends on the engine.

Most are air-cooled, but there are some water-cooled exceptions. Water-cooled engines allow for more horse-power. Harley-Davidson has a fairly decent explanation of the mechanics on their website if you look at their add for the V-rod.

The 2 stroke on my scooter was liquid cooled but also had a fan for when it got really hot.
