Great idea! I think I still have a piston out of a Ducati 1000DS so I can just turn it down a RCH (technical turn used in a machine shop) and Bob's your Uncle! At the same time I think it best to go ahead and install hydraulic lifters since it is such a PITA to get to the exhaust side. Oh, darn, then I need to move the cam. OK, moved the cam and installed variable valve timing (VVT). Now I have just over 1000 man hours, 45 cases of beer, and about $5K invested in mods for a bike that will almost keep up with a KTM 390. Makes perfect sense to me.
