And the bottoms of a pair of OE Harley cylinders.  The Harley cylinders still have the o-rings hanging on them so don't let that confuse the appearance comparison.  Lots of differences elsewhere. But interchangeable on the bottom.

And they defy gravity, as proven by the picture!   ;D ;) ::)

2LN, did you order those from axtell with the color and diamond cut? They sure look nice!  :2vrolijk_21:

Thank you VG.  But no, they had to make the rounds.  Axtell does their work and theirs alone.  So first they send prep'd cores to the powder coater, then back to Axtell for their finish machine work, then off to a diamond cutter to finish it off.

Get them with their mated cylinder heads on the bike in the sun or under the right light at night and the facets of the diamond cut just sparkle.  A very nice effect.  The color accenting all of it is just the icing on the cake.

A company called Diamond Heads did the diamond cutting for $400.  Another company called Sumax charged about $440 for the color work.
