1) Price them out at Suzuki.
2) Pick your jaw up off the floor.
3) Go home and order them from Bike Bandit.

It's been a while since I priced them, but that sounds right for new ones and there is no sense in buying used.

Try www.ronayers.com their price for boots and o-rings for my G were about half what Bikebandit or Suzuki wanted. Safe Riding, Bill

Carb Boots

You may want to get a price from Parts Warehouse (800-860-0686). I think I paid abou $25 a piece for my GS1000. The old ones wern't real bad, but they were 21 years old and I had it apart anyway.

There were also some boots for sale on ebay. Don't remember the price or condition though. I one thing I did remember was a project GS for sale in texas. No reserve and the bid was at 2 bucks or something super low like that.
