Hi fellow riders, Anyone know where (links) I can find a good sparkplug boot, to replace the one that comes with the orange coil ?? Maybe a NGK one, or something of the sort. Mahalo for any help.

Here's a bit of info that may help in selecting a sparkplug cap/boot.
I had nothing but problems with the stock caps with the black rubber.
the rubber gets rock hard after a few weeks, then the cap starts falling off or the rubber breaks apart when removing the cap to pull the plug.
I also had a misfire problem under load caused by the deteriorated rubber allowing the cap to vibrate around.
The orange silicone rubber ones have held up far better to the engine heat.
My current orange one has gotten to where it falls off the plug occasionally, usually during a high speed run or after hitting a bump in the road. ( tied down to keep it on for now...) I'm considering changing it to an automotive type later. ( looks like that'de work after screwing the terminal on the threaded end. ) cars & trucks have way more slack in the plug wires which just flop around a bit and don't have problems with caps/boots coming off or breaking apart.
