Italian term or phrase: cinghie dentate
Nasce così la pur sempre imponente Honda Gold Wing 1000, che si deve “accontentare” di un boxer a soli quattro cilindri raffreddati ad acqua, distribuzione monoalbero a camme in testa comandate da cinghie dentate, soluzione che garantisce silenziosità di funzionamento, trasmissione a cardano, tre freni a disco ed un confort principesco.
