    So I went through the parts on halls cycle. And when I ordered my part. I didn't even look at the shape of the motor case cover. So I ordered the wrong gasket. But upon inspection. It looks like the 125 cc gasket fits. But the clutch cover says it's a 250 cr. How can I figure this out and resolve my problem before I call them back and cause a commotion.

    Red is what it should look like black is what it does look like. I ordered it from the parts catalog. But it's not the right shape. I don't know what's going on because the case says its a 250 but the gasket looks like it should be a 125

    looks like an 83 125 and someone replaced the clutch cover with what goes back many years from 83 (on the 125 only) 83 125 was still non primary kick!

    not a 250 for certain

    Looks like a non-primary kick clutch cover from a 250 ('81 or earlier) on a 125 engine.

    Ok thanks guy. The guy said it ran like a 250. I only paid 300 for it so I'm not worried at all. Thanks for all the help. I have it sorted out and I'm gonna order the 125 gasket.
