Which gaiters will fit gs500ex fork tubes.

Norton Commando.

...And now that I've found the name of the man you need to speak to, a more
comprehensive reply:
Commando gaiters measure 200mm in length, to fit fork tube 34.5mm and fork
slider 56.8mm, but they are, of course, stretchy, and will do your GS a
treat. Part number 06-5743
and he's a very helpful fella.

Thanks very much, armed with that information I've spotted ebay item
120052867163, but as I've already emailed your contact above, I'll
give him a follow up phone call tomorrow and hope for a result from that
source.

MOT man said no go so the forks are to be stripped and while they are in
bits for new seals and dust wiper things it seems like a good idea to fit
some fork gaiters to cover the whole of the exposed stanchion. Who has
been there, etc. and knows which will fit from any other make/model and
with much-cheapness built in.
Roughly (measured in failing light with outside calipers and a tape
measure) 36-38mm diameter at one end 55-57mm diameter the other and a
length of about 166mm, but if anyone can revise these with more accuracy
(£8.99 gadget from lidl) then please do do so and let me know the 'exact'
measurements.
