I just learned of valve overlap from a buddy and it got me thinking. Of course we were talking sport bikes, which have alot higher rpms than our sn95's, but it made me wonder. At what rpm and how would you be able to figure out when your motor is running so fast that the intake and exhaust valves start running into instances where they are both open for a very short ammount of time during high rpms? Is this ever a factor or a problem when tuning our vehicles into the higher rpms? Just curious.... :dontknow:
