Default Engine Upgrade?

I have a 2006 Ultra Classic that has been converted to a motortrike in 2009. The bike has a stock 88 ci engine with 76000+ mi. I would like to upgrade my engine to a 103 ci I would like to know if this is a good move or not and if it is, What are all the needs to be done to the bike? Please keep this is mind I just Ride Bikes I do not know Tec stuff I would like some good advice! Will anyone care to Help?

Hello from Mid Michigan.

Your first post is typically just a Hello from other members. Often tech questions asked in this first post are mostly ignored. Posting tech question in the appropriate forum is the best suggestion I can give regarding swapping motors. Considering your honest comment you don't have a lot of tech skills it will cost a fortune and the bike will be un-ridable for a long time while all the converting is done. Just enjoy the bike for what it is and consider repairing and updating the bike and engine you have or go buy one set up the way you'd like.
