Got a 84 200es that had water in the cylinder from guy leaving the spark plug out like a dummy and will need a new top end, rest of bike is in great shape. My ? is will a 250 top end fit on the 200es?

Not to my knowledge, have your cylinder bored out and get a matching piston, but it wont be 250cc.

I would just bore it, new piston, and take the valves out to make sure they are free in the guides and the seats are not rusty and pitted or get the head freshened up at a machine shop.

MrCondid is right. These are completely different engines and the top ends won't swap.

The cheap route is to buy one if these kits , you’ll have to make a cover /cap for the different style chain tensioner but otherwise it’s a bolt on kit .

Are you talking about the cam chain guides?

If you're referring to post 3#, then it's talking about the valve guides.

The aftermarket cylinder is universal, it needs a cover over the hole in the side of the cylinder .
Their are a few threads on this site were these cylinders were used .

Update, i got one of the ebay cylinder/piston kits and this is what i found.
Bore is 63.5mm compaired to the oem that is 65.00mm
New piston does not come to top of cylinder, is down 4.80mm down in bore on the new cylinder.
So this tells me it will be lower compression and less hp from factory.
How much difference will this make?

if its that far in the hole, I'd just look for a used cylinder, correct me if I'm wrong but a 200s cylinder might swap. jim

I have rebuilt a few motors using these kits as well as others on this forum, yes the piston is a little lower by about 4mm but their was no noticeable difference in power .
Also its a domed piston were the factory piston is dished so the compression is equal if not more than the factory piston .

The kit has the rings, but no info. I have 1 silver ring w/marking and 1 black ring w/marking and the oil rings. I guessing the black is the 2nd ring down and silver on top, w/ markings facing up, is that right?

All marked rings face up , silver is your top ring , black is your second ring .
Do a quick google on how to install them correctly and how to position the gaps , it’s very important .

Update, everything went great until i try to put timing chain on, to short. Come to find out the china cylinder is taller than factory cylinder. After wasting lots of time and money i'm having the factory cylinder bored and ordering new piston/rings. Might be a china cylinder out there that will fit, but not this one. Has 7 fins like the factory one. Out
