Had a couple of 110's. Never seen a 110M though. The 110's are tough. I mean TOUGH. I had one as a kid and I abused the unholy hell out of it. It ran great when i sold it. When they're right, they make an amazing amount of power when you consider the diminutive size of the engine. Parts are still easy to come by and ENGINE parts should give you zero issues with the plethora of chinese copies of that engine on the market. You can buy a whole engine on ebay for $300 or so. I would NOT unless I had no other option. Chinese quality won't touch that Jap motor, ever. Besides, it would have to have significant damage to be un-repairable.
Do it! They are simple but stout little machines. They might not win you any rally races but they will get you just about anywhere you wanna go. The low/Hi range transmission is great. If you can keep the front end down, you'll be surprised what it'll pull in low range. In my early teens I had myself and three cousins on it doing laps around the yard one easter sunday.
*****Ahhh. I see you edited you're post. 125M makes sense. Still cannot go wrong. Great machine.*****
