Timing belts and kits are important components for synchronising engine control in some motorbikes. The timing belt transmits movement from the crankshaft to the camshaft and ensures that the valves are precisely controlled.
Timing belt kits often include the belt itself as well as tensioning pulleys and idler pulleys, which together ensure optimum function.
Regular replacement of the timing belt and associated components in accordance with the maintenance intervals prevents engine damage due to belt breakage or incorrect timing.
The correct tension and installation of the timing belt are crucial for reliable engine performance and a long service life.
