    The cam is supposed to help top end alot. The bottom end you would gain a 6 speed instead of 5. The six speed would "close the gap between the gears and increase the spread between first and sixth, providing a gear for everything from tight trails to flat out screaming"(quote from an article from 3 and 4 wheel action).

    yes if you use the xr bottom end then the kick will be backwards but you can use the 200x gears to correct the problem.

    wouldn't it be easier to buy a complete xr 200 engine and put it in?

    yes...but it will be cheaper to just get the bottom end
