This is 100% a guess, but that signature is damn near surgical it's so clean, my guess is it was done with a machine with how straight the lines are. With that in mind, maybe Millennium Technologies (MP=Millennium Porting?). Very, very popular for 2 stroke work in the states but they ship to anywhere.

4/9/2019 5:54pm Alot of people believe heat treatment is the way to go but my opinion is that if your using quality materials and a skilled Tig welder that knows the importance of good penetration, you wont have the need to heat treat your frame. Hope that helps.

4/9/2019 5:19pm Haha yeah mate definitely I read a thread a while back that's some scary stuff but without the DIY superstars what would give the rest of us a giggle.....

4/9/2019 5:08am Hey mate I did consider mounting the cdi in the factory position but I decided to tuck it up the inside of the frame above the carb in a alloy cradle i made as its was right next to the coil and hidden away so there was no need to extend any wiring which was a plus. I haven't yet...

Very nice build! A lot nicer than mine! I still have to finish mine up. I don’t recognize the cylinder engraving but I’m sure someone in here will. Where did you mount the CDI? I mounted mine in the factory Ecu location but had to do some modding to the aluminum by subframe. Have you tried different pipes? I had a CPI which made it incredibly fast in the upper range with a very hard hit. I’m now trying a fatty. I’d like to try a dynoport or dpr.

Has anyone ever seen this engraving on a cylinder head before? it was on there when I imported the motor from America around Arizona? It has one hell of a porting job done.

If done right (which you did) black can look very nice. Subtle tasteful graphics. Looks like a stealth fighter ready for MX.

An absolute professional level of execution. Seems nothing was overlooked outside more images. Your fabrication and mechanical background is extensive. I too had misgivings over the black but your graphics look great on them.
