Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (American English), carbon-fibre-reinforced polymers (Commonwealth English), carbon-fiber-reinforced plastics, carbon-fiber reinforced-thermoplastic (CFRP, CRP, CFRTP), also known as carbon fiber, carbon composite, or just carbon, are extremely strong and light fiber-reinforced plastics that contain carbon fibers.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer

Centripetal force

A centripetal force (from Latin centrum, "center" and petere, "to seek") is a force that makes a body follow a curved path.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Centripetal force

Chain drive

Chain drive is a way of transmitting mechanical power from one place to another.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Chain drive

Chief executive officer

A chief executive officer (CEO) (chief executive (CE), or managing director (MD) in the UK) is the highest officer charged with the management of an organization especially a company or nonprofit institution.

Crankshaft

A crankshaft is a mechanical component used in a piston engine to convert the reciprocating motion into rotational motion.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Crankshaft

Disc brake

A disc brake is a type of brake that uses the calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc or a rotor to create friction.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Disc brake

Drive by wire

Drive by wire or DbW technology in the automotive industry is the use of electronic or electro-mechanical systems in place of mechanical linkages that control driving functions.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Drive by wire

Engine configuration

The engine configuration describes the fundamental operating principles by which internal combustion engines are categorized.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Engine configuration

Engine control unit

An engine control unit (ECU), also called an engine control module (ECM), is a device which controls multiple systems of an internal combustion engine in a single unit.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Engine control unit

European emission standards

The European emission standards are vehicle emission standards for pollution from the use of new land surface vehicles sold in the European Union and European Economic Area member states and the United Kingdom, and ships in EU waters.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and European emission standards

Four-stroke engine

A four-stroke (also four-cycle) engine is an internal combustion (IC) engine in which the piston completes four separate strokes while turning the crankshaft.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Four-stroke engine

Headlamp

A headlamp is a lamp attached to the front of a vehicle to illuminate the road ahead.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Headlamp

Italians

Italians (italiani) are an ethnic group native to the Italian geographical region.

Overhead camshaft engine

An overhead camshaft (OHC) engine is a piston engine in which the camshaft is located in the cylinder head above the combustion chamber.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Overhead camshaft engine

Poppet valve

A poppet valve (also sometimes called mushroom valve) is a valve typically used to control the timing and quantity of petrol (gas) or vapour flow into or out of an engine, but with many other applications.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Poppet valve

Shock absorber

A shock absorber or damper is a mechanical or hydraulic device designed to absorb and damp shock impulses.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Shock absorber

Slipper clutch

A slipper clutch (also known as a back-torque limiter) is a specialized clutch with an integrated freewheel mechanism, developed for performance-oriented motorcycles to mitigate the effects of engine braking when riders decelerate.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Slipper clutch

Straight-three engine

A straight-three engine (also called an inline-triple or inline-three) is a three-cylinder piston engine where cylinders are arranged in a line along a common crankshaft.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Straight-three engine

Streetfighter (motorcycle)

A streetfighter, muscle bike, or supernaked is a type of high-performance motorcycle.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Streetfighter (motorcycle)

Stressed member engine

A stressed member engine is a vehicle engine used as an active structural element of the chassis to transmit forces and torques, rather than being passively contained by the chassis with anti-vibration mounts.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Stressed member engine

Stroke (engine)

In the context of an internal combustion engine, the term stroke has the following related meanings.

See MV Agusta RVS 1 and Stroke (engine)
