English term or phrase: 4-valve cylinder head
A new fuel-injected 779cc inline four boasts a new 4-valve cylinder head, varied length intake funnels, 4-into-2-into-1 exhaust system and is mated to a 6-speed transmission, which all together provide smooth power and torque from the low-end to the mid-range, while still being able to be revved out to high RPMs.
