you need to look at the numbers stamped into the bottom edge of the cylinder.

it will be like 2070, 2040 ect.....

FG uses Zenoah motors with an FG lable on them. the 230 would be a Zen G230RC (23cc) motor, while your boys would be the Zen G260RC (26cc) motor.

thats assuming it is all stock and the crank is also a stock 28mm stroke. only way to tell the crank stroke is to open the motor and look for 1mm or 2mm markings. but if it is all STOCK, then rest assure the crank is a stock stroke and your motor is a 23cc.

There is not a huge difference between the two.

You can see the 23 zenoah engine, it is labeled 23. I think that there are no big difference about them.
