as you know they are hard to find, especially in good condition because they are metal. Ill look around and see if I still have that extra one laying around(no promises). Goodluck

does anyone know for sure if an 80 will work on an 83 even with modification?

81 to 83 185s are the same. The 185 is more like the ATC 200 where the rear fenders are 2 pieces. I don't think it will work.

You'll have to do a search, but someone remakes that pan in plastic, I'm pretty sure. I have seen them on Ebay from time to time. And I think they might be on this site too.

Probably the biggest reason for me bastardizing my '83 185S. The seat is trashed big time. Pan is gone completely and squirrels ate a good bit of the foam out from under the vinyl.
