Aren't they all water-cooled now?  I was riding water-cooled MX bikes back in the 80's.

In the early eighties the ATK and Can-Am's were about the only MX bikes still air-cooled, by '84 or '85 all of the major manufacturers had switched to water-cooling except in the small, entry-level bikes.  I think you can still buy the little scoots air-cooled but I don't think anything over a 200 CC is available with air-cooling.

At first I was against water cooling thinking it was just another component to fail on the track but after owning one and feeling the consistent power I wouldn't want an air-cooled bike anymore.

As always, my 02ยข, take it for what it's worth.
