A nero concept.
I think BST wheels, carbon trellis frame, carbon tank, carbon fork outers, carbon swingarm, carbon air box.  All this in the old 888 style Monster frame and tank style, old style carbon headlight fairing with carbon headlight bucket, brackets, etc. Run the NCR 1200 kit in the Evo motor with 45mm Mikuni flatslide carbs like they use on big Harleys.
Carbon, titanium and magnesium.
That should blow some cash pretty quick.
I would stick with the carbed air cooled Monster concept to keep it minimalist.

yeah i used that. what i mean is, it's more oversquare than the stock motor but same displacement. would that equate to more power at the top end?
Sorry, I read your post too fast without really absorbing the question. 

I would think it would be an engine that rev'ed faster and easier compared to the stock displacement 1100 engines.

I am wondering if it would not have heating problems, which I believe is one reason liquid cooled engines can rev higher, oversquare or not.

I went to 1123 cc with my Monster (100mm bore and stock 71.5 stroke).  It's not very scientific, but I haven't noticed any differences in engine temps.

four valves get more air meaning more fuel meaning more power meaning more heat

its not the revs
