Default Going from a 88" to 100", WITHOUT boring cases

Can this be done to my 2001 88'' RK...
I don’t want to bore the cases, but I want a Square Motor, 4" Bore / 4" Stroke.
I know that you can do a 98'', but I want a 100" motor..
Please tell me who, if anyone makes this Cylinder/Piston Kit combo...

Just so you can say 100"?

Get an excellent, proven 95", 97" or 98" kit and lie to your friends.

After hours of researching a big bore for my 88", I haven't seen anything about a 100" kit by anyone. I would think that anything larger than the 97/98" pistons would leave the cylinder walls too thin.

FYI many of us won;t see your signature- it depends on browser and operating system, and what java scripting is allowed by the user.
so often good to state year/model/mods

as above, a proven combination, selected for the weight, gearing and use of the bike is the way to go for results and expense

I wonder if that new harley 110 big bore kit might equate to 100 inches on an 88 platform? ?? Just thinking out loud. It suposedly adds three inches to the 107 big bore kit. With thinner spigots or something???

It would be a 102 if it would be compatible. The increased stroke used in HD kits adds 8ci (88+8=96, 95+8=103.)

Default 103"

Up until the 96" motor came out the CVO motor was a 103" and it was all bore and no stroke mods from 88". I would think that those parts would be easier to find than a 100" kit.
Why in particular do you want a square motor ?

I do believe you are incorrect on this.

Axtel jugs will give you a thicker wall on the cylinders.
