Honda ATC 85/86 OEM Fork Boots ?

[Aussieduner]

Hi
Are the OEM fork boots still available for the 85/86 Honda 250r ? and if so what is the part number,if not available is there an aftermarket set that looks the same ?most ive seen look to bulky when fitted.

Any help appreciated !

Thanks

I just bought some yesterday. They are 33.00 bucks each. You can buy aftermarket ones for about 20 bucks, but they wont last ya 20 years like the originals!

Where did you get the OEM fork boots,i normally buy through Hillside Honda in Ca then ship to Australia.

Hi Clare :D

Part number is 51611-HA2-003. Does this mean you've found that elusive R downunder?

Yes indeed i did a nice 1985 model from one of the Aussie members here !
Now the task begins to accumulate all the parts to bring her back to its former glory,must be preoccupied with 1985 ! LOL

Daystar makes aftermarket boots that look very good and are a closer match to the blue seats than OEM. However, OEM boots do fit better.

Here's the thing with Daystars. There's two sizes. One for 41mm and larger forks (the bulky ones you saw) and one for 38mm and smaller. R forks are 39mm. The 38mm boots rub and "catch" noticably but look tons better. So what you do is find some tubing thats a bit bigger than your R's 39mm forks and stretch those boots out before using them.

These are the smaller Daystars. I get them locally for $16.95.
