DTS-Si Technology

As common biker or as laymen we keep hearing that so and so bike features what is called DTS-Si technology, but we hardly understand what it means except being familiar with the term maybe through the commercials/advertisements.

Well, the DTS-Si or the Digital Twin Spark-Swirl Induction is a technology where dual spark plugs are used and that it is known to give great mileage to the bikes and this is main purpose why the major bike manufacturers use the technology in their bikes. The DTS-Si technology will likely give unbelievable fuel efficiency provided the bike runs in standard test conditions.

Generally, the 100cc motorbikes do not offer such a mileage but the DTS-Si technology powered bikes give a greater mileage, which is the biggest advantage for the bikes. As the technology uses 2 spark plugs to initiate the combustion of air-fuel mixture, it leaves little unburnt fuel within the engine.

Why is the DTS-Si technology better than the conventional single spark plug equipped engine?

Apart from giving an amazing mileage to the bike, the engine enabled with DTS-Si technology does not compromise on technology. In a traditional single spark plug oriented the combustion process is very slow. This is because the spark plug is located at one end of the combustion chamber, which sparks the air-fuel mixture and the flame inflates like a balloon that takes some time to reach the remote corner of the combustion chamber that delays the combustion process. Whereas, in the DTS-Si technology equipped engine the cylinder head is fitted with two spark plugs at two of corners of the combustion chamber, which ensures that the sparks emit from two ends of the chamber and the air fuel mixture ignites to produce two flame fronts thus, the process of combustion is faster and also the pressure rises at a good pace. This technology in the engine promotes greater torque, fuel-efficiency and low emission.
