I wouldn't forego any radical ideas like a big bore option.
The limiting factor is breathing, not bore size. Doing some aggressive porting is key to getting these L-heads engines to breathe, also installing larger valves is helpful too and unshrouding the valve pockets in the head.

Look at having the cam reground to a more performance oriented profile, this will compliment the porting also.
