    I think i may be on to something here guys. I did some looking around on ebay and found a performance Camshaft For A Dr-z125 From Troy Racing For $129.95. (the Picture Shown Is Not Of A Dr-z125 Camshaft) So I Did Some More Looking Around And Seen That The Motor On The Dr-z125 And The Xf200 Seem To Look Alike. So I Cross Refrenced The Micofish Exploded Views Of The Two Motors And, The Two Camshafts Look Pretty Much Identical. Now I Know The Manufacturer Of The Xf200 Makes A 125 Cc Version Of The Same Bike (not Sold In The U.s.), And Willing To Take A Chance That Its The Same Head With The Same Camshaft. The Motors Are Probably The Same With Different Bore Cylinders. I'm Gonna Try a Pipe First And Then Try The Camshaft In Couple Weeks. I will try to keep you posted.

    QingQi puts/sells a 125 version of the 200 which is largely available in Europe so it's certainly possible.

    Looking forward to hearing more about that cam swap! Anyone tried a cam swap from a DR200?

    dirty,

    there is also a guy who is about to buy an xf200 and he says that he is going to put a cam in his. check out my thread on thumpertalk. i think he said he was going to use a megacycle cam for a 230 quadsport but then he mentioned sending his cam out to be machined.

    you two are on the same wavelenth though! have a look.....

    well i lost touch with that guy but i just blew up my motor. actually broke a valve. it snapped off and destroyed the head and the top of the piston.

    qlink was going to send a new motor but it would have taken about a month to get it. me and my dealership opted to do a rebuild. new top end. runs like a friggin' champ.

    my favorite "frill" (if not the only frill) on the xf200 is the led dashboard gear indicator. i posted about it on my xf200 blog.
