Nice find I had heard, from several media outlets, the interval was longer. Hearing it from Ducati directly ends the speculation on how long "longer" is. More [moto] |

I hope they changed something in the motor. The 7500 on the wifey's 695 is pushing it, IMO.

Reading articles smacks of effort. |

11 degree overlap seems pretty tame compared to some of the other 4V motors

No fooling, the tamest one I know of is the S4/S4R/ST4s at 29 degrees. |

I bet my lawnmower has more overlap. I don't see how overlap affects valve adjustment intervals. The valves are still opening and closing at the same speed. Milder ramps maybe?

maybe the different materiels for the valvetrain mean less wear meaning less adjustment in the long run?

Note that 11 degrees refers to the valve center lines and not to the overlap of the valve event's themselves. . . I guarantee this engine has more than 11 degrees of overlap  |

I guarantee this engine has more than 11 degrees of overlap It actually does refer to valve overlap Doubling the mileage between valve clearance inspection has been made possible with the introduction of a new valve seat material combined with improved combustion efficiency and temperature management designed into the Multistrada's new Testastretta 11° engine. So called because of its minimized 11° of ‘valve overlap' - the interval of crankshaft rotation during which both the intake and exhaust valves are open at the same time  |

Hmm. Interesting. Well. . . With only 11*. . . it's ripe for a turbo or supercharger  |
