WHY SIX VALVES?

 

Throughout the history of the internal combustion engine, the search for the maximum performance has followed a number of different routes. To increase engine performance, the air/petrol mixture entering the combustion chamber has to be transformed into mechanical energy. The air/petrol mixture is always a suspension made up of micro-drops of fuel and air.

 

Experience has shown that if there are changes of direction in a moving column (as there are in the cylindrical window typical of engines with only one inlet valve), the proportions of air and fuel will tend to be uneven, and they will tend to separate. This lack of uniformity between the two phases leads to imperfect flame propagation at the combustion stage, reducing engine performance, wasting energy, and last, but not least, causing the emission of highly polluting non-combusted particles from the exhaust. Twin-valve engines are also subject to some problems, caused by the slow passage of gases in the inlet and exhaust phases which restrict filling and emptying respectively.

 

These and other considerations have, over the years, led to an increase in the number of valves in order to increase cylinder filling, thereby increasing the air circulation area and loss of pressure around the valves. If the number of valves is increased, the mixture flow will collide, ensuring that the air and petrol will always be homogeneous.

 

Next, it is essential to ensure that non-combusted gases are not trapped in the combustion chamber at the exhaust stage. In addition to increasing the proportion of pollutants emitted in the exhaust gases, these "intruders" also reduce the space available for the mixture, thus causing a further decline in engine performance. And the flow of gas around the exhaust valves aids cleansing of the combustion chamber. The advantages of an engine with more than two valves can, therefore, be summed up as less waste of energy (with obvious environmental and financial advantages) and higher thermal and volumetric efficiency.

 

As we have seen, an increase in the number of valves brings many advantages. However, experience and history show that the limit of four valves per cylinder has hardly ever been surpassed. The reason is technical problems, avoidance of excessively complex timing systems and higher costs, which have slowed down progress in this field.

 

 

A fantastic six-valves per cylinder!

 

After years of research, Maserati has now perfected a sports car engine with six valves per cylinder: three inlet and three exhaust valves. The designers avoided all possible complications and intricate parts which would inevitably make the engine more delicate, unacceptable on today's automobile market, and focused on simplicity.

 

Maserati has patented a valve control (driven by a double overhead camshaft) called a "finger control", in which the loads are evenly spread (each control drives three valves), thus guaranteeing that the part will last. Valve adjustment is simple; it is the type with a screw and lock nut, which requires no particular care except the normal maintenance carried out by the dealer, with no need for the car to remain in the workshop for lengthy maintenance work.

 

And as the moving parts are extremely light, the metal is not subjected to any particular stress; each part of the exclusive 'Maserati Sei Valvole' timing system is made to last, and to give the maximum performance obtainable from a modern 2-litre car.

Wow, there is, very interesting for a 150bhp bike.

 

Chicago BMW Gets Ready To Blow!

 

BMW is planning to launch the first Supercharged Sport Bike of the modern era from a major motorcycle maufacturer. Maybe a scaled up R1150S with a 150bhp power target.

Chicago BMW is now taking deposits on the new "BLOWN" boxer twin that will make its debut in 2002.

 

BMW CHICARGO R1150S

 

BMW launched a Boxer Cup Replica version of the R1150S, which apart from a set of carbon valve covers, had little to distinguish it from the stock version - sorry, no race kit, no trick parts, just a racetrack distinctive paint job. But with the successful Boxer Cup series now spreading to the USA next year, where it'll be run as a support class at AMA Nationals, there may well be an increased number of wannabee racers ready to stand in linve for a not-a-Boxer-racer streetbike.

 

Alongside it on display in Munich was another tricked-out R1150S, this time an undeniably radical-looking Roadster showbike styled by BMW design chief David Robb, with a cutback single seat, projector lights and a wild, striped paint scheme. Response to this is understood to have been so positive that BMW has now decided to bring it to the marketplace, most probably as a 2004 model to be unveiled at the Milan Show next year, to build on the company's existing 17-model range, all of them now offered with ABS as an option, and all featuring Bosch electronic fuel injection as standard.

 

BMW also underlined at Intermot that BMW will NOT produce a Supersports model and will not go Grand Prix racing. They will suspend any projects they may have undertaken - believed to be a reference to the three-cylinder design study BMW is understood to have commissioned from former Ferrari F1 chief engineer Mauro Forghieri's Oral Engineering consultancy in Modena.

 

BMW NEWS FM EUROPE

 

BMW - R1150S 原來就是宝马电单车系列的跑車型号，Boxer Cup则已经是经过改化性能的特別版，而在2003年推出的Boxer Cup Replica则更是全球只生产200部的限量版，更加突显其稀有独特性。 元祖Boxer Cup賽車造型

 

...

 

　　R1100S Boxer Cup Replica和Boxer Cup型號一樣，都是以R1100S基本型號發展而來，規格亦大致和Boxer Cup一樣。除顏色特別之外，在前啡呤兩旁更特別加有Randy Mamola的簽名式樣以作識別，加添Replica型號的獨特性。一個與正式比賽型式樣相似的更大型碳纖維底啡呤亦是Boxer Cup Replica的特徵，噴上與車身相同的Pacific Blue藍色外更貼上Boxer Cup賽事的贊助商貼紙，使Replica有更傳神的賽車味道。另一項直接取材自比賽車型的裝置為左右汽缸頂的碳纖維保護蓋，在前方下端更特別削去一角以爭取多一點轉向極限，並解決了大部份人擔心跌車損毀汽缸頂的問題。

 

...

 

最高輸出Boxer引擎

 

...

 

　　在1公升以上的寶馬水平對向Boxer引擎中，R1100S所用的為現行型號中容積最細的1085c.c.，但馬力輸出卻是當中最高的98ps，扭力亦是絕不輸蝕的9.9kg-m。這全因引擎的壓縮比是整個Boxer引擎系列中最高的11.3:1，配合Bosch Motronic MA2.4電子燃油噴注供油及大人徑不銹鋼2出1出2高置雙出排氣喉，使到輸出能突破原來數值。

 

...

 

在引擎動力輸出更高及2003年新款六前速波箱配合之下，R1100S B的極速達到222km/h，以風冷雙汽缸引擎來說已是十分不俗的數字。

 

...

 

強化懸掛組合

 

...

 

　　頭尾懸掛依然為寶馬專利的前中置彈簧Telelever式及後單搖臂Pavalever式，全部採用著重運動性能的設定，前後均配有油壓回彈調較及彈簧預載調節，使Boxer Cup Replica更能適合高速行走的特性。

 

...

 

掣動系統為配合動力性能的前後三碟式，前輪為一對對向四活塞卡鉗配305mm大直徑浮動鑽孔碟，而尾輪則是雙活塞浮動卡鉗配276mm鑽孔碟。

 

Didn't know this is R1150S

Bro, actually you are right that there's a R1150S from BMW, I did a search on the net to discover tt some country actually call the R1100S RaceReplica - R1150S and only 200units produced worldwide, it has a higher hbp and loaded with many "special" parts, a true collector's item.

 

If you ever tot of respraying yr bike, do consider the race replica design. * Don't have Randy Manbola signature, don't worry, I can sign on his behalf. hehehe.

 

Wouldn't say yours is the old model as there's no replacement for the R1100S, infact, they do hv the 2004 design for the R1100S, everything remains except new design/colour.

 

Found 2 interesting pictures of R1200S, no review or comments but I think the R1100S has a better design.

The R1100S looks sexy enuff already. Anyway, so far there is 1 guy who rides an S here with cool Laser exhaust system, however he seldoms post here. Another fella,doesnt post here at all.

 

Great piece of sh*t with the exhaust....wooooo..... consider the exhaust. hehehe.

Noticed 3 things:

 

1) the hair are still in place, no wind-blown effect, so how much gel did they use? http://www.advrider.com/forums/images/smilies/headscratch.gif

2) I see stationary spokes

3) unless their kneecaps are made of cowhide......... http://www.blueridge.net/~us/firstchoice/gifs/bs/bullshitter.gif

 

In conclusion, the FZ1 withza flying bits is still numero uno http://www.blueridge.net/~us/firstchoice/gifs/good/bigwave.gif
