Clay,

Yes, but not only for the likely added space. Actually I wouldn't count on a lot of extra space seeing that the HP injector on the head is somewhat tall. The 2stroke just runs cooler. Heat causes fuel vaporization where you don't want it, false sensor data which in turn causes the ECU to incorrectly bias the mixture, and in some cases just plain damage and component failure. For a Berg I would insulate the fuel lines in a silicone/nomex sheath, add reflective foil
nomex to the underside of the tank and airbox, and ceramic coat the header inside and out. Swain Tech did a god job for me, thick coating, not as pretty as the JetHot stuff but durable and functional. In some cases it may pay to relocate the air temp sensor. My HD VRod was like that.
