I have taken a 200cc engine out of my scoot and replacing it with a 125cc. Will the exhaust off the 200 be ok on the 125 engine or is there to much difference with the size if the carb/jet set up???

Eh? :-?
If it's the same type exhaust port layout on both cylinders then it will fit fine, I wasn't aware that they were different on a 200, just dependent on cylinder type or kit, but what pipe is it?

exhaust will not fit stub different size and in a different place, some expansions you may be able to get a down pipe for if the chambers are the same if its standard it requires welding and some bits from other exhausts a lot eaisier to just change the exhaust
