Which bike?
What is your riding style?
Where are you looking for more power?
One up or Two up?
Are you looking for some lope?

More info would be helpful please.

I also have that setup and run Andrews 26Ns. It pulls well off idle and gives good torque through the entire RPM range. For my type of mostly solo riding, 37s would have worked well too.

Either of these, with the 204s having the lumpier idle.

I also ran a Andrews 26 and a 37 in my 01 King. I preferred the 37 over the 26.
