For Sale, Slightly Used Cylinder Head
This is from a 1983 XR200R. It has a couple of scuff marks, but I'm sure they'll buff out. Sorry, the valves and guides are not included. Maybe this would fit on your favourite China bike. You pay the shipping, and I'll listen to offers.

Interesting technique, probably as effective as the Singh grooves. If only I had an XR200.

I'd charge extra as the head was obviously improved to lower compression and improve combustion by increasing turbulance related mixing of incoming fuel/air charge.

That's what I think. People pay big money to have the chamber dimpled for improved atomization. Let the bidding wars begin!

How much would valves and guides cost?

I could throw in some used ones. They're straight. Sorta.

What about the matching piston?
Surely it would be better if you had a matching set? (Gee-wizz Batman, looks kinda like the last Cummins engine I had apart that dropped a valve, only smaller, much, much, smaller.) |

Yeah, um, the piston is being used for decoration at this time.
