I have seen pictures of some. As to the size I have no idea. Maybe search for fork size comparison between your wing and a dirt bike?

If you google gl1100 fork gaiters you will find some answers, here is one..seems 750 Honda ones will work according to this thread.

I thought CB750K fork tubes had smaller diameter than Oldwing.
It's a popular CB750K mod to install Oldwing forks.

Maybe the rubber just stretch?
In that case they may tear fairly soon.

Modern dirt bikes with thick fork tubes should be the best bet but black may be rare color (unless you like yellow, red and stuff.)

Just measured fork tube OD.

CB750K5 ('75) 35mm
GL1100A ('82) 39mm

Where do you measure? Isn't there a top and bottom number?

I only measured inner tube OD.
Yes, the boots go on to inner tube at one end and fork leg on the other.
It's difficult for me to measure Oldwing fork leg OD because mine has fork brace installed.
But generally speaking fork leg OD will be proportional to inner tube OD. So I think Oldwing got bigger fork leg OD than CB750K.

I hope that British fork boots work for you.
