I have one in my 97 200 the box mine came has the same part number V2M031 as the one at the site and it also says 89-96. It fit just fine on my bike and there are two extra screw holes on the bottem that I assume are for the older models.
I just ordered the same part yesterday. If you ever have a question as to what parts can interchange or are the same, just check www.buykawasaki.com/"View Parts Diagrams" and compare the part numbers for different years. All the reed parts have the same part numbers, at least '96 to '03 so the same aftermarket parts should work.
