Ive got a 2000 yz125 (clylinder # 5HD00) that puked a crank. The cylinder has a few scratches and the head is pretty beat up. Does anyone know if any other year cylinder will work on a 2000. I know just about all of them will bolt up to the motor but Im looking for one that would use the same pipe and frame mounts as a 2000.
I know I can replace/replate the cylinder for $200 but then Ive still got a beat up head. I was thinking about just sending the cases and top end to Eric Gorr for a 144, that way everything (including the head) would be fixed. $500 for the whole service including the top end doesnt seem to bad.
I would still like to get away cheap with another top end if possable, any insight would be appreciated.
