Thanks Pig In A Blanklet. That is the set I ordered. Hope they look good on my scoot. JP cycle was in town yesterday offering 10% discounts and free shipping at a swap meet. Made sure I had my shopping list in order. The fork boots were the only item I wasn't sure about. Good to know that they will fit.
Thanks again and Happy trails.

Looks very nice!

I notice that you bought the short (535) versions. Is your front suspension lowered? Just wondering because mine still has full travel and wonder what length (535's or 533's) would fit best.

I'll bite. You're dumb

Just kidding, Actually a nacelle, in bike lingo, is a headlight enclosure that often encompasses the headlight and upper forks like in an FL Harley.

I'll let the posting pros show you examples. Call me dumb, but I don't know how to grab these photos and post them for you to see.

The irony in this is bikers in the '70s chromed their external springs or converted their forks to internal springs to get rid of their gaiters.
