Speaking of coatings. As much as I would love to do so, I am not going to dive that far into this. This exercise is literally just a matter of porting the head to see the results. I intentionally bought a second head for this so I can not only enjoy the bike while doing this on the side, but also have the factory head to switch back to if I discover I don't like the nature of the bike after doing said work.
The whole ceramic coating idea was part of a "if I were to go all out" discussion. I wanted to keep this as pure as possible and not introduce anything to skew the results of what just simple port work can do with a more "high performance" carb.

I don't know what high performance carb you have in mind, but in a round slide carb, Mikuni makes ANOTHER VM26, costs about 80 bucks, but has an enriching circuit instead of a butterfly choke with shaft hanging in the air stream...ARH
