Thanks man!
I got me a bit of reading to do.

Ps. As for Physics - I've got my thoughts.
Barry R is right: a short stroke should rev faster. BUT that's not to say Brent and KC are wrong. The extra fuel that a longer stroke sucks in could provide enough bang to make up the difference.
Problem with physics is that while it always works, it only always works when "all else is equal", and in practice changing the stroke can change other things too. Isolating the single one variable in this case is challenging. It's not as simple as just changing the strokes.
