XVS 650 A - Big Bore

[Gruff87]

Been lurking on here for a while and thought it was about time to sign up.

I've been searching for a big bore kit for an XVS 650 A, I don't know if one exists or if anyone could share some insight or direction.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I understand the 650 is the old 535 Virago bored out and with the stroke lengthened. As such it is already a 'stretched' motor so there may not be much meat left to remove from the cylinders.

Having said that, all motors have an over haul capability,( oversized pistons etc) so you never know. The next size up is the 925cc engine, Cant see the 650 bore stretching that far.
