GLOSSARY OF TERMS

  • Motorcycle – A two or three wheeled vehicle powered by a gasoline fed reciprocating internal combustion engine from 50 cm3 engine displacement and above.
  • Small engine –  A stationary engine whose framework does not move when the engine operates. It may drive a variety of immobile equipment such as pumps and generators.
  • 2-stroke engine – A 2-stroke, or 2-cycle engine is a type of internal combustion engine which completes a power cycle with two strokes (up and down movements) of the piston during only one crankshaft revolution.
  • 4-stroke engine – A 4-stroke, or 4-cycle engine is a type of internal combustion engine which completes a power cycle with 4 strokes (up and down movements) of the piston during only one crankshaft revolution.
  • Multi-cylinder engines – Is a reciprocating internal combustion engine with multiple cylinders.
  • Fuel system – System responsible for the supply of fuel into the engine for combustion.
  • Intake system – System responsible for the supply of air into the engine for combustion.
  • Exhaust system – System responsible for the control and directs burned exhaust gases into the atmosphere.
  • Lubrication system – System responsible for the continuous supply of oil during engine operation not only to prevent wear to moving parts of the engine and transmission but also to cool, remove impurities and to neutralize chemically active products of combustion in the engine.
  • Cooling system – System responsible to maintain working temperature of the engine while in operation to prevent overheating and wear of engine parts.
  • Clutch and Transmission system – System responsible to convert the power produced by the engine into the desirable torque needed by the rear wheel.
  • Final Drive system – System responsible to transmit power from transmission gears to rear wheel
  • Starting system – Electrical system responsible to turn the crankshaft in order to start the engine.
  • Ignition system – Electrical system responsible to create a spark at the combustion chamber at the right moment to burn the air-fuel mixture inside.
  • Lighting and signaling system – Electrical system responsible to operate the lighting and signaling devices mounted or integrated to the front, rear and sides of the motorcycle.
  • Charging system – Electrical System responsible to maintain the charge in the motorcycle battery which provides the main source of electrical energy to supply lighting and other electrical devices such as horn.
  • Steering system – System responsible to maneuver or change direction of the movement of the motorcycle.
  • Suspension system – System responsible to keep the tires in contact with the road surface, to provide steering stability with good handling and to support the whole motorcycle and ensure comfort of the rider and passenger.
  • Brake system – System responsible to slow-down or stop the motorcycle when it is moving.
  • Basic tools – Common tools used to disassemble and assemble common machine parts.
  • Special tools – Tools that are specially designed to enable disassembly and assembly of a particular part that is not possible with the use of basic tools. These tools are recommended to ensure quick service and correct maintenance.
  • Measuring tools – Tools or instruments needed to measure length, width, height, diameter, depth, gaps, rotational speed, deflection, temperature, pressure, electrical current, voltage, resistance, etc.
  • 5S – A basic housekeeping activity to create a safe working environment and to realize an atmosphere of productivity. The 5S’s stands for the acronym for the Japanese words – Seiri, Seiton, Seisou, Seiketsu and Shitsuke.
