125; 150; 175's are considered "small bore" 200's are considered "larger bore"
The difference between small and large is the size of the "mouth" in which the barrel fits, and the stud spacing is different as well.
A proper 200 cylinder will not fit into a small bore crankcase without extensive mods which some engineering companies will now do.
