Royal Enfield is on a winner with its 650cc twins as American engine giant S&S Cycle has now added 750cc and 865cc big-bore kits.
This follows the recent announcement that premium Swedish suspension manufacturer Ohlins has developed suspension grades for the twins and the Himalayan.
S&S also have other performance parts for the new Interceptor 650 and Continental GT 650.
They include clutch kits ($US399.95), mufflers ($US474.95) and handlebar adjuster kits ($US69.95).
But the biggest news is the 750cc big-bore kit at $US630.95 (about $A900) and 865cc kit ($US634.95).
S&S usually only make big-bore kits and performance gear for Harley-Davidson and Indian V-twins.
This is the first time the Wisconsin company has produced performance parts for any other specific motorcycle.
The company stress that the performance gear is for “closed-course competition use only”.
While they do not yet reveal power and torque output for the kits, they have released the following tech details.
