    Help with Acronyms...

    This is a wierd thread I will grant you, but I am a wierd person, so the universe stays balanced.
    I am trying to remember an acronym from a bike I once rode, and I cannot remember what the crap it was. Listed below are some examples.

    YPVS - Yamaha Power Valve System
    TSCC - Twin Swirl Combustion Chamber
    RFVC - Radial Four Valve Combustion

    It was like one of the above, I cannot remember what the bike was, it ages ago that I rode it, and didnt know a great deal about bikes back then.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Yup, and other bikes that used the same family of motors.

    Oil cooling, no water.

    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?
