Some of the early engines, like this flathead Ford V8, had what became known in hotrod circles as "Siamesed" intake or exhaust ports. What you are seeing on this engine is "Siamesed" exhaust ports on the two middle cylinders. And, yes, I am more than old enough to know what I'm talking about. I can remember when this engine was one of the hottest available.

Whilst the V8 flattie is taking all the attention, I have to say I love the way the front brake is set up. The perimeter disc really gives a clean look to the the wheel and forks. I'm guessing it's a Buell set up, but then the wheel looks too big. Brilliant, anyway.
