I am pretty sure you are SOL. In 1978 and 1979 the CR250R had a single down-tube frame and the pipe exited from the cylinder off-center to the right. Your 1980 is a double down-tube frame design with a center port motor. In 1981 the CR250R was a brand new water-cooled design and I would suspect this means the pipe was different. If you are looking for a pipe try Pro-Form Racing (PFR). These are better than stock.

what he said ^^^. I like the proform a lot for my '80 250. Still a pipey SOB, but all the more fun.
