At the Rat Raid in N.C. this past weekend, I saw a couple of Bonnys with the Kawasaki W650 gaiters (fork boots) and they looked pretty good. I did a search both here and at BikeBandit.com with no luck. Anyone know the OE part number or the Bikebandit.com part?

Thanks,

maybe something like this might look cleaner than a regular old hose clamp..

Where do you get those good looking clamps?

Let me know if you ever want to sell your Elsinore.

Thanks.

You can find the clamps >>HERE<<

Last time around I used some automotive CV boot clamps, cheap & much better looking than hose clamps or zip-ties, IMHO. Still not as nice as the pricey clamps sold by the retailers that sell the boots though. I'm doing away with my super gaiters & putting some stock commando gaiters on. They fit snugger & don't need clamps, and they're dirt cheap. Because they're already sitting there on your shelf.
