Can anyone tell me if the valve cover in black can be replaced with the ones in silver , it’s a different style and I don’t know if it will fit.
This is for a 1985 R80RT

Welcome to the forum! Not sure but the part numbers for the '85 RT and a '94 Mystik are different.

I'm not sure about the fit. But on the parts lookups for the later model bike, if it was backwardly compatible I would think it would say that. Could be issues with the valve train clearances on the inside. I think they call these peanut covers, so you could search The forum for that.
