Harley-Davidson has used dry-sump type lubricating oil systems in their engines since the 1930s. The Rotax engined Aprilia RSV Mille, and the Aprilia RST1000 Futura both incorporate a dry-sump, along with sister bikes, the SL1000 Falco and ETV1000 Caponord. All BMW K-series motorcycles with inline-4 engines.
Lubrication is dry sump, and fuelling is via dual CV carburetors or fully redundant electronic fuel injection. The electronic fuel injected Rotax 912iS is a recent development. [5] The 912's lubrication system differs from most dry-sump designs in that oil is forced into the storage tank by crankcase pressure rather than by a separate scavenge ...

Dry sump engines in some drag racing cars use scavenging pumps to extract oil and gases from the crankcase. [18] A separator removes the oil, then the gases are fed into the exhaust system via a venturi tube. [citation needed]. This system maintains a small amount of vacuum in the crankcase and minimises the amount of oil in the engine that ...
The Twin Cam 88 was a traditional design from Harley-Davidson, using two cams to drive the valvetrain, with the first being the famous '8-Valve' OHV V-twin racing models of 1915. Their 1920s single-cylinder models (the A, AA, BA, BB, and Peashooter) also used twin camshafts in the timing chest, and did their 1930s flathead engine models, like ...
