The 350X rear shock is just over 14 1/2 in from center hole to center hole. The top is 1 in wide by 1 1/4 deep. The bottom is 1 1/8 wide ID and just under 1 3/4 wide OD, and 1 1/8 deep. I am not sure if an R has the same bracket that the 350X has on the bottom of the shock.

I seriously doubt it will work.... 84R has that arched bottom link in the Pro-Link suspension. I'd advise you to jut get the correct shock for the application. You can get aftermarket springs for the rear shock from Progressive suspension too. I know a couple people who have put a 350X in a 200X with some major bracket mods, but never heard anyone try to put a 350X in a 250R before.

That was his first choice, but i know he's been looking for a while, and they arent easy to come by! The early R's dont seem to have any good substitutes, but if somebody ever finds one, I hope they let everyone know.
