Zusammenfassung: | A cylinder for a V-twin engine includes a section of steel tubing cut to a length. The section of steel tubing includes a first portion having a first wall thickness and a second portion having a second wall thickness less than the first wall thickness. The second wall thickness is less than 0.050 inch. The section of steel tubing includes a first ribbing pattern on an outer surface, within the first portion, and a second ribbing pattern including multiple ribs formed on individual ribs of the first ribbing pattern. A cast body is provided on the first portion of the section of steel tubing so that the section of steel tubing is fixedly secured within the body to form a cylinder sleeve defining a cylinder bore. The second portion having the second wall thickness extends from an end of the body to be received within a bore of a crankcase. |
