Per musiclucho's "fastest vs. slowest", how about largest cc vs. smallest cc?

Per discoganya's suggestion, photos are nice but optional.:ride

Largest cc street legal bike for me, 2002 VTX1800:





Smallest cc, 2019 Z400:

smallest :'73 Honda xl 250
largest (current bike) Kawasaki Concours 14 (1395 cc)
 
Yamaha RD 350.
1200 or so the largest.

At 15-1/2 that 350 felt like a bad ass machine.
 
Smallest, would be the 50cc moped? I guess? Is that what they were?

If not, the 180cc scooter.

Largest, 1200 K1200-RS.
 
Suzuki TS-125, R1200RT.
 
Smallest 50cc Honda CL110
Largest BMW K1600GT
 
Small displacement light bikes are vastly underrated.

Mine would be XR50 vs CBR954, though I did have an '05 ZX10 for a minute, but I don't count it.

My largest vs smallest is the same as my fastest vs slowest. Harley 50cc vs 750 gsxr. :)
 
Back in the early 70's, I was tasked to ride a new Honda MoPed home for a buddy, I imagine a 48 cc displacement.

Then for the big, 400 inch small block tied to a two speed power glide.
I hopped off my Hyper and saddled up a Boss Hoss.
I was puckered up for the weight, no open road for freeway speeds, easy ride, no smokin' :thumbup. :ride
 
My first bike was a Z50 so that plus a few other mini bikes and 50cc mopeds.
A riding bro wanted to try my gixxer1k so meant I had to swap for his busa which I really had no interest in riding.
 
Smallest cc which is also the slowest: Suzuki FR80 1996
Largest cc: 2001 BMW R1150r. Not impressed with the speed but the thing feels really nice cruising on the highway.
 
Yep, that's usually the case when it comes to motos and autos. Bigger motor usually means faster. :ride

Some examples of how that doesn't work...in a major way...
