    What's the difference tween 85 & 86 250R axles?

    I have an aftermarket axle for a 250R in my garage. Just not sure which year it is for.

    BTW, it's 37 5/8" wide. How wide is a stock axle??

    ive been told that all 85-89 250R axles are exactly the same, as far as fitting.....the only difference is some hardware that goes on the axle....

    So if the sprocket hub is not on the axle, you cannot tell the difference between an 85 or 86?

    Also the 86 was hollow and the 85's were solid..they didn't bend as easy...not sure about the splines if they inter change with one another...GOOD LUCK !!
