Jay, please take no notice of the 2 wheel knockers. 2 wheels, 4 wheels, even 3, the joy we get watching you each week immersing yourself in mechanical nirvana is just fantastic. This week is a particularly good one, although watching from Australia I am a bit biased.

@montycrain5783 7 лет назад

It's the Desmodromic valve actuation that eliminates the valve float since it has no valve springs that actuate on the valve. The bevel drive is for cam timing accuracy.

@VeritasEtAequitas 4 года назад

And for the desmo. A pushrod won't do it.

@frankbutaric3565 3 года назад

I own the Ducati darmah. Desmodromic valve actuation used to be the thing but now we have engines that reliably rev. to 14k rpm with no issues. The bevel drive is a left over from aircraft engines. Highly complex to set up. Chains and belts do a better job only cheaper. The bevel twins almost put Ducati in bankruptcy due to high cost of manufacture. I love the bevel ducks but the new stuff is infinitely better.

@toddposton869 2 года назад

This! I was going to say the same exact thing.

@BuzzLOLOL 6 лет назад

They prolly thumbed it down because Jay 2:44 - 3:50 still doesn't understand how desmodromic valve mechanism works! Jay thinks it works by "bevels", but bevel gears are the gears shown used to merely right angle the drive shaft and camshaft... and is also used for non-desmo OHC Ducati engines... desmodromic works by rocker arms (not "gears" ) that both open and close the valves... relying on tiny valve springs to only hold the valves fully sealed closed...

Jesus, that exhaust note! Such a beautiful bike. I've been rewatching old JLG videos, and I have to say, it's such an awesome channel. The variety of bikes and cars, new and vintage, low-buck and high end, stock, custom, racing, factory concepts, etc. And (not trying to sound like a suck-up, but...) I'm constantly impressed by how well Jay knows the technical aspects and history of the vehicles, his obvious, authentic passion, and his generosity in sharing his insane collection with the rest of us, and his genuine, down to earth approach Personally, I love the vintage cars and bikes, and pretty much anything custom, but I;m pretty sure I've watched every video on the channel at least once by now, and loved them all.The passion for design and engineering, an the knowledge of history that Jay brings makes them all fascinating.

@battleax002 7 лет назад

I really enjoy the motorcycle episodes, Jay talks to the camera like a buddy showing you cool toys in his garage. Very engaging. One thing though, at the first when Jay is talking about the bevel drive, he confuses bevel cam drive with the advantages of a Desmo valve actuation. Not that I could do any better. The videos are interesting, diverse and gets a normal schmuck to dreaming about cool vehicles.

@lornespry 4 года назад

Thanks for your comment. I was set to wondering what he was talking about when he described the bevel drive and then got on to valve float, which as you infer was solved by the desmodromic head. It directly pushed and pulled and valves to open and close.

@giuseppecochi5020 4 года назад

Lorne Spry yes indeed, there are 2 cam lobes, one which opens it, and the other follows up to close to eliminate the valve bounce, a system that Ducati still use, Recently Claudio Domenicali the CEO was asked why they still use it as now days with improved designs and materials there are other solutions, he answered , yes that’s true but the desmodromic system is what we know best and it works! It does increase the maintenance cost though but thankfully on my Multistrada the Desmo service is only required every 30k Kim’s, just done the first one

Here's what I love about Jay. Every ride we ever did started at LAX and than through the canyons stopping at the world famous biker spot "the Rock Store. Two times I showed up, I met Jay Leno. I watched him on a Vincent that was leaking oil and wouldn't start. I watched him run and bump start a machine that wouldn't start. It did when he bump started it. No help no one pushing him. I saw Jay a second time,same location. This time on a jet engine bike! Ran on jet fuel and built in France people asked,how far can you go it? Jay says, depends of how fast you go! Jay is the real deal. No back up crew. No cameras, that man rides and lives the Motörhead dream. He's the real deal!

@DoRC 7 лет назад

good video but the bevel drive of the cam doesn't have anything to do with how fast the valve closes. It actually doesn't float because there is a rocker to both open and close the valves so they don't rely on spring pressure.

@BuzzLOLOL 7 лет назад

Yeah, Jay didn't really understand the Desmo system at all... surprised those guys didn't explain it to him... The bevel gear engines look cooler, and more reliable than chain drive, but more expensive to make...

@mangiumicro 7 лет назад

Yea, it is the first thing I noticed... Jay showed how ignorant he is. The Desmodromic system has two cams, one for opening and another for closing the valve. That is why valves can be properly operated at higher rpm. The bevel drive is just needed to achieve a 90 deg between the cam shaft and the drive shaft and its profile reduces noise and vibrations. Nothing else. What a shame...

@BuzzLOLOL 7 лет назад

Yeah, man, a chain drive is just as smooth as bevel gears... but I want to pick up an older bevel drive 900cc Duc... I just like the look of the engine better... don't care if it's Desmo or not, valve springs work fine at street bike RPMs... In fact, my 1974 Duc 450cc single Desmo scrambler would rev to 8,000+ RPMs, but power was, disappointingly, gone by about 4500... it was low RPM torque tuned/designed... Main problem with Ducs is the too short valve guides need replacing every 5,000 miles... Long ago I picked up a 750cc Duc with only 5,000 miles cheap because it wouldn't go over 50 MPH... put in new valve guides and it was restored to 120 MPH in 3rd gear with two more gears still to go... Ducs tend to have long-legged gearing... 60 MPH in 1st...

@tedzehnder961 2 года назад

@@mangiumicro It connects to the crank shaft not a drive shaft,such a shame.

@mangiumicro 2 года назад

@@tedzehnder961 Cam shaft(s) and crank shaft are parallel... hence two conical gears are needed if rotation is to be transferred by a "drive shaft" perpendicular to both. Bevel gear is just a type of conical gear. So, yes, there is one bevel between crank shaft and drive shaft (but not even directly, usually with a reduction gear train in between because the cam does one turn every two crank turns... 4 stroke engine) and one bevel between drive shaft and cam shaft.

Jay - as always, great video. Like others, am real appreciative of your willingness to give your time up to share all of these wondrous vehicles from and at your shop. Great production values too. One point of discussion: you highlighted the bevel gear aspect of the valve gear train, which is definitely eye candy, but the real aspect of the gear train meant to deal with the valve spring metallurgy weaknesses of the time was the desmodromic technology. As you are no doubt aware, this involves mechanical valve closing via an additional set of cam followers. Slip of the tongue or intentional so as not to confuse the non cognoscenti with too much info? Again, thanks for the numerous awesome videos.
