Stumbled on this, sorry if it is old news

Nice set of pipes -

Porting in process - and more, some are familiar with the mod

Pistons were bored out for large pins (to the stronger rods) - Not sure what is going on here, new circlip grooves? (updated comment 12/12)

Nice build

Sick! Those WTF headpipes are amazing, and the read cages are straight porn.

What are the beefy rods?

He is a very talented young man...pretty much designed and fabbed everything on the bike including the reed boxes. He says it runs and handles great. I'm not sure about the Uni's but the throttle is as crisp as southern fried chicken. oh, and the boy flogs it pretty hard too.

Especially like that. I would have much preferred to creep up on that dimension with a boring head, instead of an end mill on a rotary table.

i would highly dought he is opening the hole with an end mill, looks like he may be doing another machineing operation. NOt sure but looks like the cutter has a small cutting bit sticking out of it, could be opening up the C clip groove ??
