What do you think of my porting

[teton]

I ported my first cylinder recently...opened the exhaust port to 70% the bore diameter, and finally got to snap some pictures, let me know what you think, and if it looks ok, also how does the chamfering look, does it look like enough or do i need more, the corners are no longer sharp.

-oh and my boat set up is for surf/freeride

thanks

Looks good!! The port looks smooth also, not hacked. Good luck with it.

Looks like a pro did it! Nice work...

that does look like great work!

did you use a template, or just measure and mark or what?

did you do anything other than the exhaust ports?

no template, i just looked at the home porting thread and only widened the port. I made my own template from the stock port, measured it, figured out my ideal width (70% of the bore) drew some lines with a permanent marker and went to work.

you think it looks good now, it was polished to a mirror shine but I bead blasted it hence the matte finish

I only did the exhaust port b/c after reading the post about home porting it seemed like for max low end i should leave the transfer ports alone
