The rod kits in your link are to suit 88 model onwards. They are longer so you have to run a spacer under the barrel. In my experience there is no replacement rod kit for the earlier model bikes from 87 back. I put a genuine 85 rod kit in my 84 500 but still had to get it slightly modified to fit in the 84 cases. The later kit is usable but mods are required which I personally have not done myself.
