Evening all.

Before you all say, I know I wont see a lot of differance etc, just basicly because im gonna have to pay £20 to remove a broken stud may aswell upgrade.

Just wanna know if this 200kit will fit a 125 engine:

As far as I know, the answer is no. The stroke on these is longer than on the standard CG125 motor. The biggest you can take a CG125 motor without major work is 150 if I remember correctly. I'll back this post up with actual evidence as I find it...

edit: Information: https://hondacg125.awardspace.com/how_to_increase_engine_size.htm

CG125 Bore x Stroke 56.5 x 49.5 mm
CG200 Bore x Stroke 63.5 x 62.2 mm

You can probably buy a CG200 engine and bolt it straight in though...that might be your best bet.

As the cg125 cast iron liner is only 71mm in outer diameter,
boring out to 61mm or even 63mm leaves little in the way of metal behind and would probably fail.


And the 200cc kit is 63.5mm

Dunno if I should risk it hmm

The issue is the stroke is also longer which means you'd have to rip apart the bottom end and replace the con rod. You would also need to bore out the crank case mouth. It's not worth the hassle, even if you can get it to work...trust me!

You'd have to replace the crank with the longer stroke 200 one, and they're probably not that common as when have you ever seen a 200cc Chinese bike over here.

If replacing the stud is £20 I'd just go with that.

Even on an air cooled bike a 3.75mm wall thickness on the barrel should be more than enough to resist warpage unless you are in the habit of leaving the bike idling for long periods.

Just a shame it's not a bolt on set up and ride product, would imagine this would bring a good amount of power to the CG

As far as i am aware, the old XL185 engine will bolt straight in.

You might want to look into the electrical system as im unsure if the 185 was 6v or 12v points igniton.

I had an old CG 125 a few years back and thought about upgrading? it.

I had a look for an Xl 185 engine and they are as rare as rocking horse shite.
I believe that the Xl 185 engine is to tall with out a modification?
Don't quote me on that!
