This is cool. It is something I think about as I cruise along on a track at 5K to 6K with an engine with over 130,000 miles. How many times have the valves opened and closed.

How did they get it inside the valve cover? Not much room for lighting.

Didn't they just cut it away and use an outside oil sprayer?

at those rpms, i think it be just the oil misting up from splashing on the fast moving parts

yes, so that's only around 118 revolutions per second at that engine speed. Easy peasy.

That bike looks crazy fast and not really much more expensive than a comparable Japanese bike. If I was in the market for a new bike the S1000RR would be at the top of my list.

I would love to see a similar shot with desmo valves. Can those engines spins as fast as conventional valved engines?
