Precision ring sizing?

Been Around the Block
Does anyone have any tech to share about ring gaping or squish tolerance?

I've read quite a few articles about gaping rings on cars, and have practiced them a few times. I'm assembling my first blueprinted cb175 and was curious to know if anyone had any 'air cooled' advice.

Ill be using a set of arias pistons, and following their specs but id like to see what I can learn from the community.

What's the purpose of the bike? Just normal riding on the street or is it a track bike? If a track bike, what type of racing?
 
I'm not a competitive racer, Im staying within the WERA Vintage 250 GP rulebook. I wanted to use it for some track days. The chassis is setup with the DOT legal requirements, but being a taller guy, I don't see any road trips on it. I also have a fresh stock cb200 with some fancy 2-1 pipes for the street. (attached)

As it once belonged to a friend of mine.
