Does anybody know where I can purchase front fork boots for the 84 250r? eBay has only the 81-82 and 85-86 only.
Did the original 84 have black boots? Thanks Ivan

Black is the original color on the fork boot. here is the Honda part # 51611-429-771 for the 83-84 250r fork boots. It doesn't appear the OEM boots are available anymore through partzilla however if you plug the hp# into ebay's search it will give you a couple options you can buy from NOS to aftermarket.

I have looked at the part number on eBay but no luck, but partzilla did show me other bikes that had the same boots. Below is the list:

Then I found this pair that partzilla say will fit below:

I did count the ripples on the boot and it had 15 like the 84 250r as I looked at pics from the net. But look at the shipping to Australia! I have spend so much money shipping stuff to Australia ahhhh! Will these fit? Any help please?

The last picture are the ones I saw that when you plug in the Honda part number on eBay will show as a result. If I recall there were a few other options as well in the search results.

I ended up buying a pair of used 84 forks just to be on the safe side! I did message the guy on eBay and said they were only 23cms stretched, but checked on my 84 and the fork ride is 29cms. I have brought a few after market things for the 250r and didn't fit so good, oem is always best.
