Based on how many models come with either or engines, its likely they all share the same mounting points. From a 125cc to the DOHC 250, it so likely they all use the same mounts.
That definitely works on horizontals, maybe this works with "plain vanilla" (non-balanced) CB and CG clones, but only "humanbeing" would know for sure...
Yes humanbeing can probably tell us the distances fro one mount to another, the thread form and plating of the bolts and the name of the old woman who cut the threads.
Swapping the old air cooled two valver for the more modern zs four valve is a standard mod for the Chinese guys . With a bit of engraving you have a legal bike with a good bit more power. Using the word legal as the locals do.
Perhaps venerable is a better word than old.

Woody of woodys wheels is acknowledged as the wheel guru. One weakness of Chinese bikes that has always plagued me is the drive line in general and especially spokes.
If I saw his name on a wheel I would feel very confident those wheels wouldn't leave me geographically embarrassed in West Bumfluck Nowhere. There is a fair bit of science and trig in spokes and Woody builds the wheels that get through the Dakar.
Again just my opinion having ridden Locally built 250's for 80k around China and Asia. Plenty of other guys have done more than that. I would bet a shiny one kuai piece none of them have good things to say about spokes ,wheels,chains,sprokets or the non existence of the rubber band thing that is supposed to be between the tube and the spokes.

Sorry about repeating the picture, I didn't think the last one worked.
