ok here's the formula you need.
Displacement = # Cylinders X 0.785 X BORE X BORE X STROKE.
84mm is 8.4cm and 75 mm is 7.5cm
plug them in and it looks something like this
Displacement = 6 x 0.785 x 8.4 x 8.4 x 7.5 = 2493 cubic centimeters, or roughly 2.5 Liters of displacement.

so its 2.5 liters.....

um, it's simple geometry. You want to know the total volume of several cylinders. You know the diameter (bore) of each cylinder, and the height (stroke) of each. Volume of a cylinder is pi*D^2/4*height. pi/4 is roughly 0.785, so 0.785*bore^2*stroke is the volume of each cylinder. The volume of all the cylinders put together is the volume of a single cylinder times the number of cylinders.

Displacement is calculated from the diameter of each cylinder and the distance each piston travels in the cylinder. Cubic centemeter's translates into liters.
Its not as tough as it looks.

It's simple geometry... The volume of a cylinder is pi(r^2)h.

Okay slick, explain why you don't think they match. They look the same to me.

Why don't you try to understand the formulae first?
