Abstract
An internal combustion engine includes a crankshaft as well as at least one cylinder head, which can be traversed by flow at least approximately in the crankshaft axial direction from an inlet duct to an outlet duct and which has valves for opening and closing the ducts. Two camshafts actuate the valves, and each of the camshafts is assigned an inlet valve and an outlet valve. The two camshafts are arranged at least approximately parallel to the crankshaft. A motor vehicle, in particular a motorcycle, can be provided with such an internal combustion engine.
