Two-stroke engines

Reed valves are commonly used in two-stroke engines to control the fuel-air mixture that is admitted to the engine crankcase. As the piston rises in the cylinder the resulting vacuum opens the valve and admits the fuel-air mixture. As the piston descends, it raises the crankcase pressure causing the valve to close to retain the mixture and pressurize it for its eventual transfer through to the combustion chamber.

Given the fact that they operate via air pressure alone, reed valves are not as precise as rotary valves since physical inertia causes them to open later than the optimum time. Manufacturers have attempted to address this in part by creating multi-stage reeds with smaller, more responsive reeds within larger ones that provide more volume later in the cycle.

The repeated flexing of the valve material eventually causes metal versions to fatigue and fail to seat properly while fiberglass ones will merely snap off and be digested by the engine.

Reed valves are also used in reciprocating compressor designs.

Reed valves are commonly used in two-stroke engines to control the fuel-air mixture and for the V4 im not sure if ti could be done as the concept of the V4 engine is different form the 2 stroker.

[zongbao]

RVF Newbie Outing

(Laojiaos are strongly encouraged to attend as well)

 

Lately, we have an influx of new members who have just bought their RVF's.

There are also members that will be selling their beloved V4 soon.

Lots of people have been asking for outings so let's get the ball rolling!

This outing will be held in the beginning of June in the evening. There will be a place for newbies (and laojiaos) to meet and eat, then sip kopi as we discuss about our V4's, and everything under the sun as well.

 

Looks like there will be a photo session too since the turnout looks good.

And it'll be done with a professional camera, keeping my fingers crossed in the hopes that all of us can promote our image

 

Rounding around Singapore will be expected after the meetup too.

 

====

 

June 7

Saturday

 

(feel free to suggest other dates as you see fit...)

 

Location wise, it'll be a combination of these, not in order.

Routes may be added/removed as we so decide.

 

Meetup: Marina Bay Old Seafood Restaturant or Kallang KFC (near the former Nat'l stadium).

 

After-meetup rounding (and maybe toilet) stops:

1. Changi Beach (CP opposite the freight centre)

2. Yasir Restaurant (Indian late night restaurant @ Serangoon Rd, near Boon Keng MRT)

3. Lau Pa Sat

4. and of course, Selatar Dam (aka. Yishun Dam)

 

The aim of bringing you guys to these locations is to show the public our V4 stronghold. But no speeding pls! Too many TeePee's around at night.

[natgw]

i did mine for $18

 

can do urself also. just need to remove 1 nut at bottom left hand side of ur bike and see ur coolant come out like peeing liddat.

[MC28]

The best way to flush is with a running hose, so that the whole system can be flush clean of the old coolant..

I think so too, LamerFornica.

 

(oops, I was just mentioning your nick, not backstabbing ya)

 

I'm going to theorize with the best of my knowledge,...

and allow any outsider to hit me if I get this wrong --

that reed valves probably aren't necessary for 4-stroke engines since i mean hey, the engine's 2nd, 3rd, 4th stroke seals in the mixture and doesn't let it escape that easily.

 

If you've seen how the 2 stroke engine runs, go Google it up...there's tons of animated pictures on how it is. There's a few that shows fresh fuel and air mixture going in the 2 stroke engine and at the same time, spent fuel (aka. exhaust) escapes. This "same in-same out" timing actually can mean that if the engine isn't designed properly or that if something is wrong somewhere, the fresh fuel and air can inadvertedly go directly to the exhaust and escape immediately from the engine.

 

Quoted from Dan's Motorcycle Course webpage:

 

Reed valves are simply a one way valve. They let air or liquid pass one way and not the other.

 

Maybe that's what the reed valve does...(of course, not forgetting the fat-belly shape of the exhaust piping too)
