I feel like you can tell just by looking at them you know whats up

kinda like when you see a tranny (transsexual). You know what the deal is just by glance

What is your take then on the pics canadianshee posted.. cause I'd put $20 on those being oem. They have all the correct markings, the casting ridges in the intake and transfers, ect.. all point to an oem..

Are you sure those are NOT oem? I would almost bet those are oem from the pics
I'm 97.78% sure they are knock offs,but I could be wrong. I purchased a set of oem cylinders for rebuild and porting last year. The oem cylinders from yamaha do not have the circle above the 2JU mark, like the set in the pic, that why I thought they may be knock offs.

So we are back to 2GU being the best marking to tell it’s a stock cylinder? I’ve never seen a Chinese cylinder with those markings.

So apparently we cant resort to 2GU as indication, according to what ZillaFreak just posted.
