  2. Main bearing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_bearing

    The number of main bearings is primarily determined by the overall load factor and maximum engine speed. [1] Increasing the number of bearings in an engine will generally increase the size and cost of the engine, but also reduces bending stress and deflection caused by the distance from the crank pins to the nearest bearings.

  3. Crankshaft - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankshaft

    Crankshaft, pistons and connecting rods for a typical internal combustion engine Marine engine crankshafts from 1942. The crankshaft is located within the engine block and held in place via main bearings which allow the crankshaft to rotate within the block. [3] The up-down motion of each piston is transferred to the crankshaft via connecting ...

  4. Rocker arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocker_arm

    To reduce friction, uneven wear and "bell-mouthing" of the valve guide, [1] a roller rocker uses needle bearings (or a single bearing ball in older engines) at the contact point between the rocker and the valve. These allow higher engine speeds (RPMs) and higher loads, and were initially confined to high-performance and racing engines due to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_motorcycles_by...

    A transverse engine is an engine mounted in a vehicle so that the engine's crankshaft axis is perpendicular to the direction of travel. In a longitudinal engine configuration, the engine's crankshaft axis is parallel with the direction of travel. However, the description of the orientation of "V" and "flat" motorcycle engines differs from this ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawasaki_W_series

    In 1963 Meguro was taken over one hundred percent by the new Kawasaki Motorcycle Corporation, which maintained the licensing agreement with BSA and continued to build the K model, but due to lubrication problems Kawasaki made engine modifications and the Kawasaki K2 entered production in 1965 with improved crankshaft bearings and a larger oil pump.

  7. Tunnel crankcase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunnel_crankcase

    A tunnel crankcase, tunnel crankshaft or disc-webbed crankshaft [1] is a design feature of a piston engine where the main bearings that support the crankshaft within the crankcase form the largest diameter of any part of the crankshaft and are larger than the crank webs. This requires a crankcase with a large tunnel instead of cross web ...

  8. Straight-twin engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straight-twin_engine

    1964 Sanglas Rovena motorcycle engine (built by Hispano Villiers) 1997 Suzuki GS500 motorcycle engine. A straight-twin engine, also known as an inline-twin, vertical-twin, inline-2, or parallel-twin, is a two-cylinder piston engine whose cylinders are arranged in a line along a common crankshaft.

  9. Crankpin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankpin

    A crankpin or crank pin, also known as a rod bearing journal, [1] is a mechanical device in an engine which connects the crankshaft to the connecting rod for each cylinder. It has a cylindrical surface, to allow the crankpin to rotate relative to the "big end" of the connecting rod.
