The layout is one intake cam covering all four cylinders
down the center of the bike. Two shorter cams handle
the exhaust valves, one cam on each pair of cylinders.
Hence the name "z-line 4"
Overall, not any more difficult than a standard Japanese bike.
However, this new motor is designed with the heads and cylinders
as a single casting, which means that the valves are literally the
last components removed during an engine teardown.
This creates problems for the average guy, if there are any
average guys buying $100,000.00 limited production machines.
