Is it engraved with the Torker name? if so it's a Torker2 stem.

My mini stem is in the tech & resto stickies and that has a squared back edge.
Odyssey did a copy of the 6 bolt stem, very difficult to tell the difference, except i think odyssey ones came in painted versions, whereas torker came anodised.
jT Racing:
the original torker 6 bolt is a square back, i got one too. that second gen one with the round back was copied by odyssey and a there is a ting tong version too that ginny rinny sells, only difference was the name and finish tbh. the square back one is the best one to have ;)
Bob_Acid:
There are snide versions of the square back too. I think the way to tell is the clamp bolts are metric and the shaft is chrome on the snides, not sure if they have that machined finish either :daumenhoch:
