how does the forced air cooling work on a 150?

Can some one tell me how this works

I see the fan on the side , and some sort of snorkle at the left front of the clutch housing

the there is an exit I guess under the head by the exhaust pipe

where does the air go in and where should I be able to feel the air from the cooling system exiting?

My buggy seems to run warm, though I have no way of knowing if its really warm til I check the cyl head temps

buugy is a xykd150-3 150cc

thanks

yep the fan pushes air down around cylinder and head to keep engine cooler i can fill air coming from out around the opening were exhaust bolts up on mine,i'm sure it leaves out in other place to.
the snorkel like thing you are seeing on the cvt cover is separate
the fins on the variator pulls air in cvt cover to keep belt and clutch cooler,it is important to to keep that filter clean so you won't burn up a belt, alot of heat builds up in there.
after riding a while and letting it idle stick your hand back at the clutch end of cvt cover there is a opening there and you will fill warm coming out.
also there is a opening middle ways of cvt cover to.
there are different thing you can do to get better air flow in cvt that little foam filter that comes in them aren't worth diddly
