I'm curious if anyone would be interested in a big bore kit?
So far, I'm getting very little from CFMoto regarding the possibilty of a 1000cc for 2017, and in reality, that doesnt do anything for us current owners anyway.
I have a small stock pile of cylinders which I could bore and send out to have them Nikasil lined.
JE Pistons was more than willing to make an oversized piston, and do what ever compression ratio I wanted. Obviously the more I run, the lower the cost per piston.
At this point this is all just an idea, but it could very well be a possibility if I thought I had enough interest in them.
Mr. RPM makes an 840 kit and a 975 kit for the CanAm 800s, so most likely I'd say go 975cc to make it worth the $$.
Would anyone go for this?
Note, in order to do this, you will absolutely HAVE to go with an EFI controller in order to adjust the AFR, and go with a high flow exhaust and intake.
Most likely, I'd stick with stock compression, since we'd already be putting a little bit more stress on the motor with the larger pistons. If I were to go High compression, I would only go high enough to where premium would be required. Needing anything higher would make the kit impractical.
The other reason to go stock compression would be to leave the possibility of having a turbo put on.
Would love some input on this!
