I would do some checking around, I would be hesitant to go too big, wall thckness between cylinders could become an issue. That would then cause the bike to run hot.

220 would be good for sure. Im sure that would be with some large cams. And in that case would it be very streetable. I would still want some reliablity. I dont think you would see much of a difference in hp with a 2 or 3mill. Most of the piston kits including the stock bore are 13.5. I would think there would be a difference in tq. Im still waiting to see who makes good power on pump and race gas. Seems to me everyone is making the same hp. No one has yet to stand out. It would be cheaper to go with the stock cams if there were only a few hp difference between them and the mod cams.
