The bore and stroke of a bike engine are two of the most important dimensions that determine its performance.
Bore: The bore is the diameter of the cylinder. A larger bore means that more air and fuel can be taken into the cylinder, which can lead to more power.
Stroke: The stroke is the distance that the piston travels from the top of the cylinder to the bottom. A longer stroke means that the piston has more leverage to turn the crankshaft, which can lead to more torque.
