Just wondering if Honda used the same starter motor across all platforms?

The starter motor on my brother's 82 200E sticks. I was going to take it and clean it for him. I have two 84 125M starter motors on hand. Both work great. Just wondering if I can give him one of those to throw in for now?

Those 200 starters are easy to fix at least. I have rebuilt a few. Take it apart, clean thoroughly, lubricate, and put in a new set of brushes if they are getting worn down. I have seen a few with the front bushing worn badly, probably from getting dragged by the engine due to a sticking starter clutch, but most of the time there isn't much wear in them and they are fixable.
