Anyone have any thoughts??
Might be able to pick one up, not running of course, but mostly all there.
Thanks

I'd buy it and set it up for the Dragon.

+1. If it's priced right...go for it!

And not that the 125 wouldn't be a blast, but does anyone know the 200 top-end can simply be bolted on, or would that require machining to accomodate the different piston size?

very nice bike but the weak point is needle jets and jeet needles which are very difficult or even impossible to find now.
And a twin yamaha with worn needles runs very badly.
Don't think 200 barrels and pistons are bolt on 125.
