Is anyone running bigger than 64mm ??
TS1 and PX stay in the garage (future barn finds) out on the GTS 300 when I go out on a scooter.
I know I’ll get there and back

this also is a 230 ;) unless you running 71mm piston.
Yes i know ;) My reply was intended to show how to get a tourquey engine with out casing mods etc and relatively simple to do :frog:

Most benifit definitely from long stroke crank and long rod than overboring to 71mm. If it was me I'd keep a 70mm bore and get ccs with the crank.
Much better choice of pistons at 70mm as well.
