I still have the original fork boots on my 2004 Bonnie, and they show no signs of deterioration.

Aftermarket ones are made of rubber - the Triumph and Kawasaki are made of a very pliable plastic that does not rot. The part number from Triumph is A9638018, but they are apparently discontinuued.

The gaiters were one of the first accessories or mods that I installed.. I installed the ones (purchased from bellacorse) that are used for a Triumph Bonneville (2001-2016 Aircooled ) .. They are still holding up well
check out the following link : https://www.bellacorse.com/product/bcc001/
Also check this old thread : http://cb1100forum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=9723

People from the forum have also reported using the Kawasaki Gaiters :
Kaw Part Numbers:
49006-1335 (boots) x 2
