Replacing spark plug boot\cap

I broke my spark plug boot on my into pieces. Right now I have duct tape all around it to try and protect it but I'm starting to run it in the snow now and don't want water getting in there. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could by one online at. I've searched around and wasn't able to find a place that sells the spark plug boot.

Also to anyone who has replaced them, what is all intailed in doing it? The boot looks pretty integrated into the wire.

Thanks in advance,

Brandon

your local honda dealer should have them for less than 15 bux and all un have to do to install it is screw on to the wire

the inside of the cap has a little brass screw that threads into the rubber ,should take you 10 seconds to change, I also think denniskirk.com has them as well

Re: Replacing spark plug boot\cap

Nice thanx for the info guy. My nearest Honda dealer is a little bit of a drive. I found this place called Bike Bandits that has all the schematics and for pretty much all bikes. The prices seem pretty reasonable and it saves me a drive. I think I'll order it from them. http://www.bikebandit.com . Thanx for all your help guys!
