I have an 83 200. Just a plane 200. I want a little more speed. I'm either thinking about just getting a 250r motor and putting it on it and I wanted to know if it will fit and bolt up to everything else or if I have to get all new parts. Any advice with that would help. Or I'm thinking about just getting a 250r. Or if there is another motor that you guys think would be easier for the swap or any info on a swap for my bike would be helpful. Thanks.

Dude that old frame cannot handle a motor that size. Your better off putting an air cooled cr80 or 125. But I would just get the 200 running right. There is a good bit of power hidden in those motors you just have to get them running right.
