It's very much as roger says. You can design a short stroke high torque engine but it is easier to get high torque with a long stroke. The breathing of the engine is as important as the lenght of the lever. Just think of the de-tuned naked roadsters that the Japs turn out. These are all based on the supersports bikes engines. They have torque but have not had any change in stroke.
