The electronic injection system receives large body butterfly valve (40 mm) deep with a response to the acceleration and lower emissions. Economic ally, the ignition spark digital dual spark provides strong and steady guarantee of greater persistence, and maintenance intervals longer. To reduce the vibration of the engine, driven by pinion balancer uses a simple crank-pin crankshaft. Side cooling, high-capacity radiator is working together with fan ordered electronically.
