I got my info from Ferret's excellent post about how to do the install for gaiters. These are what I bought, lifted directly from his notes:
Kaw Part Numbers:
49006-1335 (boots) x 2
If I remember correctly, I bought these from Partzilla, here's a [url=https://www.partzilla.com/search?q=49006-1335]link. They really spiffed up an already spiffy machine!

thanks for that. I've heard people say more than once that i should get the Kawi Gaiters but I never knew exactly which part they were talking about. Now that it's time i figured i'd get them on order.

Has anyone here tried the Whitehouse gaiters made for the CB1100?

is that an online price? I think mine were close to, but under $100. They are really quality gaiters though, will last seemingly forever. I put a set on my 2003 Bonneville (which is still in the family) and they still look good 15 years later, with no seam splits.

he was referencing Samurider.com, which has them up for 160k yen. that's about 150 Murican. Samurider is notoriously overpriced, though, so I wouldn't be surprised to find out you can get them elsewhere more reasonably.

And I believe that they are different gaiters. Ferret, I believe, is referring to the Kawi boots while the Samurider link is for Whitehouse gaiters which are reported to be designed specifically for the CB1100 and made of high quality silicon!
