Maico piston takes them to 460cc or thereabouts, had a few over the years. I personally don't like them & find the power too aggressive & tiring. I prefer to ride smoooooth Euro bikes.

If you want the smooth Euro power you need more than just a Maico piston.  You need the rest of the bike too.  Maicos Rule
MAICOS RULE DESPITE THE FOOLS

 These would look good with a 125 tank.
