I'd like to get information toward the Wiseco Big Bore kit...
For sure bigger numbers always sounds better (988) but I don't want to make the bike wear faster.
I'd like recommandations, and technical facts...
Thanks

You're going to get different opinions on what will wear out first, I went with the 904 kit from bonnevilleperformance.com and I'm very happy with it. I can't see any option wearing out before 50-60 thousand miles at a bare minimum. I went from 54rwhp to 70rwhp and torque went from low 40s to a steady mid 50s throughout the rpm range.

All that pizazz, and POWER TOO! I'm jealous! Mine has NEVER been touched (tuned) since new, as I wanted to get most of the basic mod's made before spending money on a proffessional set up. Over 5k now, and put on the event dyno this last sat.for starting numbers. Wanted to know how pour it was before a real tune up. (46.5 hp, 44 t.)  
And you may see me tonight

When I dyno'd the first time, it was with Sceptre pipes, air box removed with K&Ns, nology ignition, and had re jet twice.

I have the aftermarket pipes with the baffels drilled out, the vintage looking airfilters, and A/I removed. I did use the jetting cal. on this site [Diniqu site(boy did I butcher that up, sorry dude)], and put 150/45 in just to prevent burning it up from being too lean, untill I could get it tuned. I'm building my own baffels soon, then I'll get a real tune up done, and recheck it with a dyno. Now, back to the main topic. (sorry)

if you get the kit from bonneville performance, then all you need is your dealer to install, no machine work required

I'd have a Triumph service dealer do the work unless you can find a qualified person that has done one before. You don't want to talk someone into learning on your bike.
