Assuming the '86 is the same as my '05, yeah, they bolt right up. I run a 300 shock and did zero modding to fit it. It's not a bad upgrade either.

The chain is the easiest to check, and the most likely. Adjust on the rear stand, check tension with the bike on the ground. Make sure it doesn't have any frozen links and that it is aligned...
