you are correct sorry i never pressed order to confirm. As normally if they are not available they have no price also i never properly read your original post.
Looking in the Fiche there are two distinct part numbers for the springs i would say Honda issues lengths or rate as a change.
Make sure the service manual you are using as a reference covers both or all years 1980 and 1982 i would say Honda changed the length maybe in combo with the cams/rockers but your service manual might not cover both. Honda normal indicate the springs with a colour dab. The springs number hanges are not a subrceeded number so it not a change later and therefore i would suggest there is diferent specs.
They all should all play with each other as the parts fiche doesnt list up to cerain engine number etc for the parts listing.
Interestingly the same pairs were used on a lot of models
CB250RS 1980 and 1982
XL250R 1982
XL250R 1983
XL250S 1980
XL250S 1981
XR250 1980
XR250R 1981
XR250R 1982
XR250R 1983
XR500 1979
XR500 1980
XR500R 1981
XR500R 1982

there are NOS listed on Ebay and other sites under the parts numbers.
personally, i would just have a look through the XR250R and XL250S for the same years and see what they list.
There wll be service manuals for the correct matched XL XR on the net.
Shiming isnt really that bodgy this was done by many tuners from new less damaging than HD springs.
Stretching them is but is pretty common thing to do on saggy clutch springs you use a chisel
