Make Offer - Ported and Polished Cylinder Head-1982 xs650

[plattey]

Ported and polished cylinder head. The valves have been lapped in and new valve seals have been installed. Porsche/VW style valve tappet adjusters (aka elephant feet valve tappet adjusters) have also been fitted into the rocker box. The elephant feet adjusters use a cushion of oil in the ball and socket joint and allow more miles in between valve lashing. Valve lash is set to stock settings. One of the nuts is frozen on one of the exhaust studs, but the stud turns out of the cylinder head. The threads are good. Pictures of the whole cylinder head assembly and each port are below:

The reason I'm selling this head is because I'm in college and can really use the $$. I had this spare head in my basement and I've already ported and polished a head for my 650 so I don't need another one I have the same style valve adjusters in my 650 head and have used them with great results.
This cylinder head would make a great addition to a winter engine build!
Buyer will pay for shipping, I'm located in southwest Wisconsin.

Please make an offer! Thank you for looking!

How much are you looking to get out of this head?

 

[plattey]

This is the first ported and polished cylinder head that I've try to sell. That's why I put "Make an Offer" in the title. I'm just throwing a good estimate out there. How does $200 obo sound?

 

[plattey]

May also consider trading this head for a used Shell #1 or a 650central streetfighter cam and the spring set....

 

[plattey]

The head is now complete. The springs are in along with new valves seals. Also, porsche/vw valve tappet style adjusters have been fitted. The advertisement has been updated as well.
