I was reading the specifications of my scooter in the repair manual. It calla the cumbustion chamber a semi sphere, AKA hemisphere, aka "hemi". The People GT and Downtown 300s have a "hemi" style motor. Neet!

They have a "Hemi" style head (combustion chamber). To qualify as a True "Hemi" they require the matching piston. That piston would fit directly into the combustion chamber, and have Much higher compression.

Basically what we have are 1/2 Hemi's or Semi's.  ;)
