Yes, DG did make a head back in the day for the tri-moto 125 and I believe also for the 175. This is most likely one of those. I did seen one on a tri-moto once and it looked exactly like this one.

Wowzers, I want that!

Other than cooling, what are the advantages to these?

The dg heads also gave more compression and the gold just looked plain awesome.

Research I did on DG heads is like stated above also said exhaust temps where about 100 degrees cooler.I have a DG head on my 81 250r racer.

Don't mean to call you out becuase that might be a typo you made; there was an old dirt wheels article that did a temperature test in desert heat and showed on a 250r with three or four aftermarket heads compared to the stock head there was only like a 5 degree difference. Doesn't take away from the fact that they look sweet! Makes me miss my 300 kitted 84R

Edit**+ just realized you said exhaust gas temps! I was talking about the overall temperature of the engine after a hard run in the heat showed the heads only helped cool the motor itself a few degrees, don't know about gas temps lol
