Q1 What kind of intercooler is used in the 850/70 family?

Air-cool (radiator type) or Liquid cool (i.e. coolant)?

I've looked in my 850R engine bay and couldn't see any obvious

sign of an air-cooler so I suspect the air is cooled by the

coolant eh? Am I right? Unless it uses an aircooler but it's

painted all black and ugly that I didn't notice it.

Q2 Does it use a Dump Valve? or is the pressure not high enough

to require one?

It seems that the manual doesn't tell the owner so much details
about the engine. Please comment on the above questions. Thanks!
