Good morning all. I spent several hrs online looking for the year of my suzuki I purchased DT85 however, confusing info found. the tag on the outboard as per title above and pic attached just not sure if one of the number is 8? or a 6? DT85 8501 9219(8?)0 or 9219(6?)0. I have a few parts I need to order and want to ensure I have the correct year thank you all very much for your time in trying to answer my question have a great day all.

I think it's a 6....not sure it matters though. It looks like an 1989 to me but I wouldn't swear to it. What did you come up with?
