Imagine what that price would do to the price of used heads.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

Hmmm... yep. ^ That ^.

Related - saw somewhere when this new first hit a year or two ago, that Porsche foundry engineers visited the KHI Z1 head casting operation back in the day to study the die creation & casting processes.

Good Ridin'

Very nice! Are the exhaust stud holes 6mm or 8mm?

If you compare the intake and exhaust bolt bore diameter, the exhaust studs are 8 mm.
