Then there are a few custom builds with turbine engines and the occasional drag/showbike with jet, or rocket engines. Most bikes run on gasoline, but there are Diesel bikes too.
What is the function of an overhead valve engine?
OHV engines run with the camshaft built into the cylinder block, unlike SV engines (no longer used) where they run parallel to the cylinder block. More commonly used in the modern world are OHC (overhead camshaft) engines, which run in a similar manner to OHV engines, eliminate the need for pushrods. The function however? Is the same as any other engine; to spin an axle with high RPM/Torque depending on application.
