Does anyone own a YZ85 & can measure the reed block for me?

I'm trying to get the width of the reed block off a YZ85, according to partzilla/boats.net the assembly is used from the 1993 YZ80E1 onwards

I'll measure a YZ85 V force if you like

That would be perfect Lozza, saves me taking the gamble of buying 1 without knowing if it will fit into the bike I want it to. From what I can tell reading up on rd350s it should fit but I'd like to be sure of wide they are at the base of the block

Bolt spacing on the RD is different but the cage is/almost identical

Thanks Lozza, will check sizing later this week when I get back from Auckland & make the decision on whether it's a goer
