Suzuki DT85 year? cant find it!

[the man]

Pictures of serial number and engine cover attached. Sorry serial number is partially submerged and a bit hard to read. From what i can tell it is 8501 0207xxx. Looking online, it looks like an '80, but then searching for that year images the engine cover does not seem to match?

I want to find a good shop manual if anyone has suggestions. Thanks!

Looks good for a 1980, how's it run?
Cover looks to be off of an 88 or newer?
I have a Clymer manual for my 87 DT30 and it does a good job.
The manual I have covers 2 - 225 hp from 1985 - 1991.
One thing you could try is download the yearly parts catalogs at Brownspoint Marine and try to match the illustrations up with your motor?
good luck
