I did with a CG200, it went in just fine. The only difference is the width of the mount on the head, it's a bit wider, so I spaced the mount out with washers. A 230 should fit the same, as long as it's a CB/CG clone without a counterbalancer. It's actually an easier swap than a later XR200 (post '86) motor, as they spaced out the countershaft. Go for it, as long as it isn't counterbalanced. If it is, you'd have to make a new front mount.
