These are the fork gaiters of a W800. 4+1/2 years old
and still in good shape. Sometimes I take care of them with e.g.
Amor All , that's all. And they will last etc.

Whelp, probably stumbled upon this to late.
I got what I thought were Triumph Bonneville gaitors off Ebay, they look nice now but worried they are going to degrade like others have said in this since they are made in Taiwan and they were ~$35. Any updates on current gaitor users and anything you can do to prolong the life of them?
Was going to buy the Kawasaki Gaitors but the part is discontinued and not available anywhere I could find.

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.

Running like a top
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
