    Difference between 85 and 86 250R headlight?

    Is there a difference between the 85 and 86 250r headlight. When I bought my 85 two months ago, the headlight assembly was the same as my 86's. I ordered a replacement shroud from Maier (for an 85 only) and the headlight doesn't fit. It's about .5" too wide and .25" too tall. I'm thinking the previous owner put an 86 headlight assembly on it. Anyone know for sure? If so, anyone have an 85 headlight for sale?
