    Spark Plug Wires and Boots

    Sorry if this has been asked before I tried to search and couldn't find anything. It's time to change out my spark plug wires and boots. When I bought the bike the boots on the inside cylinders were longer then the ones on the outside. I have replaced them once before and the new set were all long. They worked and still work but I like them the other way but I can't figure out where to order them online?

    EDIT: I found another thread with the link to Base Cliff's page on the boots the problem is that it seems the VB05F Spark Plug Cap - VB05F is no longer available anywhere? so I guess it's long or nothing?

    Check eBay for NGK caps. There is still stock available last time I looked (which was recently, for someone else asking this same question.)

            When the last of the resistor caps disappear, simply use non-resist caps and a resistor plug.
