Resin coating is applied to the pistons, and lightweight aluminum material is employed for the first time in a motorcycle in the
friction - reducing
roller rocker arm.
To reduce
friction, the
rocker arms have built - in
rollers.
• Two - lobe overhead cam and a pair of needle -
roller rocker arms reduce
friction by 50 percent for increased fuel efficiency and torque.
Measures to reduce
friction losses and thus help enhance engine efficiency include the adoption of narrow, lightweight
roller rocker arms and low -
friction timing chains, while D - 4S direct fuel injection helps create optimum combustion conditions, contributing to enhanced fuel efficiency.
The NR engine family (there's also a 1.5 L version in the Avanza) comes with intake and exhaust Dual VVT - i, teflon coating for the pistons (to reduce
friction and improve durability), larger water jackets (better cooling, improved combustion, lower noise),
roller rocker arm (reduces
friction between
rocker arm and camshaft) and iridium spark plugs (the 1.0 L KR in the Bezza and Axia also uses the latter).
Low -

roller rocker arm are supplemented by such techniques as intelligent control to lessen
friction during power generation and the first adoption of a shell - type needle bearing for the
rocker arm shaft.

roller rocker arms and low -
friction timing chains, while D - 4S direct fuel injection helps create optimum combustion conditions, contributing to enhanced fuel economy.
Valve train Lightweight titanium intake valves are operated by
roller rocker arms with integrated low
rolling resistance needle bearings that significantly reduce
friction between the cam and the sliding parts.
In addition,
friction reduction measures include an improved valve
roller rocker arm design with a new camshaft profile, small, lightweight pistons with a low
friction coating, enhanced engine block rigidity and bore circularity, and low viscosity oil.

friction roller - type
rocker arms.
