|
The explaination, as I understand it:
They have Camshafts, with small pneumatic cylinders acting as Valve-springs. The main purpose of running these is to avoid the high-RPM harmonics which send conventional Valve-springs into uncontrollable ValveBounce above 14,000RPM (or thereabouts).
I THINK the 4-stroke, 4Cylinder 250cc bikes get away with 19,000RPM because they have tiny cylinders, and hence tiny valves, which are relatively easy to control. Hell - make a V12 to the same specs and you've still only got a 750cc motor ! ! !

yup, the wire springs have a) too much inertia, and b) get hot VERY VERY quickly...

although Renault have developed a camless system, i don't thnk it has made it to a race yet.. hmm nope.. here's the current engine

ABOUT THE CBR205RR 
yar the valves only move a few mm and are tiny as well... the pistons also move buggerall.. maybe 40mm?
