Nice...! Those port angles are simply outta this world...!! I've never seen a more obtuse angle on a head...

Weird rockers, though. Innovative. Presumably lighter than the Desmodromics to prevent valve float, & use a single pivot....sahi dimaag, yaar....

Any idea why the poppet/valve guides are designed such? I don't see no springs, so how's the actuation? Purely pneumatic? Hydraulic? And those pistons...just 2 rings...?
