Kickstart Levers - Will A KX lever fit my CR?

I'm having no luck finding an original '87/'88 kickstart lever. :(
I'm in the process of rebuilding an '85 engine to put it into an '88 chassis and have 2 '85/'86 kickstart levers.
I hate the position of the '85/'86 levers as I've got to position my foot at a funny angle to avoid smacking my boot off the side number board. :evil:
I've been looking to find an alternative and KX 250 kickstart levers from the mid '90's look to be a similar shape to the '87/'88 CR500.
Does anyone know if the KX lever will fit the CR? :?
Do the kickstart shafts the same diameter and spline pattern?
Cheers for any help.
