Need driveshaft boot for G/S in Pakistan
Hello: I'm in Pakistan and I need a driveshaft boot for a BMW monolever. My bike is a 1986 G/S. Any idea where I could find one? I guess the alternative is to DHL it here somewhere .... Unless someone knows a better solution?
Thanks, Kevin |
Kevin, You should be able to make something up.
Can you make something up from a inner tube or maybe a gaitor from a car gear change lever or some 4 wheel drive vehicles have a boot over the ball joint on the axle. Before rubber came along leather was used or maybe canvas. Come on be creative ;) Steve |
If memory serves me right those gs monolevers were @sealed for life' so the boot is just a dust cover. not am oil seal. as steve says, wrap rubber around and hold it in place with jubilee clips.

The only failures I've had on mine were splits - I used some silicon sealant on it and it held up for another 2 months. Try a tyre patch? If it leaks - just keep toping the oil level up. It will run with out oil but you'll damage teh splines that way - you cound lube tham with grease for a while... You should be able to find some in India or at least have a new one sent to you - motobins takes about 1 week to deilver through the post. Good Luck. |
oops, though the gs was a paralever...
