5	The worm up performance is better this results in low cylinder wear	The worm up performance is poor this results in greater cylinder wear
6	Size of engine is small and weight is less as there is no water jacket, radiator and water pump	Size and weight of engine is increased to use of due radiator and water pump
7	Air cooled engine must be installed in front side of the vehicle	Water cooled engine can be installed anywhere on the vehicle
