Whats the max overbores on oil cooled barrels.

Guessing the bandit 1200 are best barrels?

Is 1216 the biggest you can get with stock liners?

Is it much work to have bigger liners fitted?

I believe you can get a 1246 kit for b12 barrels as the liners are slightly thicker than the 1127 version can't help on the cost of big liners but don't forget the crankcase will need machining to suit the bigger cylinder spigot and possibly external oil lines too if the machining causes issues with the oiling system

Yes you can indeed "well used to not checked recently" how ever even in a B12 block you end up with thin liners.....

1340 is doable with either thicker liners or a big block "getting scarce"  having rode a 1340 it does make a nice grunty road bike

I thought that 1371 was the biggest of the overbores before stroking to get capacity increase? Isn't it 86mm bore in a big block - the APE ones were nicest but very rare now!

Crank cases don't always need opening out for bigger liners the bottom of the liners can also be reduced to fit the crank cases like these 1277cc ones.IMG_20230410_074400.thumb.jpg.ff2ba907fe4985d958ebd304cf668d92.jpg

I have APE 85mm Gorilla block.  Wasn't aware they made an 86mm.  Liners got to be getting pretty thin I would think at 86mm.
