No, the mounts don't mate at all. They are however the same offset from the drive sprocket over. I've got a CB 125 front engine mount on the way to do a little mod on. That will mount the front of the engine then I'll build a brackets to mount the rear and head, I'll also be fabbin a nwew header. All that engineering, cutting, grinding, and welding is right up my alley and what I consider easy/fun. The electrical however has always been my weak point. Especially when I get three wiring diagrams with three different sets of colors, none of which match the colors coming out of my engine.
You are correct about the power as well. From what I've read, the lifan 200cc has 16hp, that's about 4hp less than the Honda twin 175. However, the Lifan looks like it will produce the same if not a touch more torque which will work out great. Regardless, anything will be stronger than what was on there. The original engine has been gettting weaker and weaker.
