Default 1200 to ? conversion

I see alot of stuff on the internet to take a 883 to 1200. Can a stock 1200 sportster be converted up any bigger? I can't find much about that.

Thanks

Paul

Google Trock, S&S, Zipper's. There are big inch Sporties around. I ran a 77" stroker motor back in the '70s. It was a flat out big cammed hot rod and had so much torque it would twist the flexi-flyer Corbin Gentry rigid frame.

Edit: Just looked in my J&P catalog. S&S makes an 89" kit , "Sportster 89XLSS Hot Set-Up", for 86-03 engines.

Man I hate following Skip...

The first bump up for the 1200 is the 1340cc or 88 ci, the pistons have a notch on the bottom and you need to use larger cylinders and have the block bored. And then there's the 90 ci, I've seen a 94 ci which I think is a stroker, and Zipper make a 100 ci if you really what the whole ball game. Plus I bet there others out there.
