Larger M/C bore = less fluid pressure, more volume = shorter foot stroke.

Smaller M/C bore = more fluid pressure, less volume - longer foot stroke.


If you lack stopping power then a smaller M/C will increase pressure. This is assuming your balance beam is adjusted correctly. I was plagued by poor stopping power and now run 5/8" on the front and 3/4" on rear which took care of the problem in my case. It was downright scary before I changed my original setup (1" on the front, 7/8" on the rear).
