Mine is being custom made of T6061. Should be here in about 1 month. Then plated.

I don't have one but I've heard of tons of them. Almost all of the new cheetah and cub banshee cylinders are aluminum castings nikasil plated, and all of the sabertooth 500cc 250R cylinders are also.

No one makes a AU sleeve for the 300hondaline. Only steal.

No one makes one for the early style CR500s either, but I had looked into getting one made. Cost was pretty outrageous but Advanced Sleeve could do it.

HOLY Shnikees.! I just realized that this sleeve is costing me about 25% of what a nice air cooled R would cost. Oh well I guess I'll just eat this one and not make the same mistake in the future.
