85 and 86 are the only bolt on options. 87 they changed the airbox so the air filter gets installed through the top not the side like previous years. I'm sure if you were feeling saucy you could modify the newer style to fit.

or you could go to nightmare racing and get a new full set of plastics if you are willing to pay the price

the 88onwards tanks and shrouds will fit, but as seat is different I would use 87 tank(same seat) and 88 on shrouds.you will need to modify leading (radiator) mounts as 86 has one bolt to shrouds and 2 to tank.87 onwards is one bolt to tank and 2 to shrouds. you will struggle to do the same with rear numbers panels, but maier manafacturing do a funky set for the b2.hth, K.
