I see the Ebay ad and it's all wrong. So I try to be nice and help the guy out.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Honda-CR125R-Cylinder-and-Piston-Kit-No-Wrist-P…
Sent him this message:
That cylinder is for a 1979 CR125 (side port, single downtube frame), not an 80 model(center port, twin downtube frame). It has also been sleeved and no longer retains the chrome bore. Hope this helps.
Then he schools me...LOL :
This came off a 1980 CR125 Elsinore. 1979 and 1980 CR125 Elsinores both have the same part number for this cylinder. 1981 Had the more modern style head, like you see on newer 2 strokes. 79 and 80 frames are the same, 81 is where they change. Its way before my time, so I'm not saying your wrong in any way. I'm just stating it as what I know. But I do appreciate the help. If you need any OEM Honda parts in the future, just let me know. I'll give you a pretty nice discount. Thanks Bud,

Was that old school for "Bro"?
He might have mixed up his photos?
Right now I'm trying to communicate with a guy that's pretty clueless about his product, which means it might be a bargain because of his shortcomings, or it's a total turd of a product...
Well, all ebayers know the up and downs...
and the generic multi year Wiseco #448 (79 up to 1984?) that he has for it? On left in pic is a 448 Wiseco. Center is a 74-78 CR125 stock piston and far right a 74-78 I cut to match the 1980 skirt length and cutaway.
