RE: Question on 1200 conversion
You can't tell from the outside if he had the cylinders bored.
If you haven't riden an 883 and a basic 1200 conversionyou wouldn't know what to compare it to just from riding it.
The 1200's have way more get up and go but if you're inexperianced they both could feel that way to you.

As far as I know the cylinders are not marked. The heads on the other hand will have 883 or 1200 cast into them, But the stamp doesn't really prove much anyways. There could always be headwork done, and the original cylinders could have been bored out..... The only way to know for sure is to pop the heads off. Otherwise if in doubt, and the bike is a good price, ask if you can take it for a short ride, and if you like it, buy it.
