Overhead camshaft, commonly abbreviated to OHC, valvetrain configurations place the engine camshaft within the cylinder heads, above the combustion chambers, and drive the valves or lifters in a more direct manner compared to Overhead valves (OHV) and pushrods.

Q.No : 6

What is "GS-150" ?

Mr. Google says it could possibly be the Italian Vespa - GS150

The Vespa GS150 series reaching from VS1 to VS5 is one of the most appreciated and sought for Vespa models nowadays. Primarily because of its rounded cowl and attractive lines where the seat follows the rounder shape of the chassis in a characteristic way. It has a, for that time, quite alert 150cc engine giving 8 hp at 7000 rpm which resulted in a top speed around 100 km/h.

More info Here! and Here!

Q.No : 10

Which was India's first 4 valve bike?

Yamaha R15
