I have some of them for sale, if you're interested let me know and I'll get you the diameter (without the supplied rubber)

if you could that would be good, 53mm is the max not sure what the forks OD are yet ether 53mm or 51mm

I'll grab em out the garage when I gets chance, with the rubber it's like 35mm dia but the rubber's ridiculously thick so you may get away with a bit of inner tube (I can give you some if you need it). Anyhoo I'll let you know.

I used high quality stainless hose clamps and a bit of hockey tape under them to prevent scratching.

Just added a pic. I didn't have the ears (mine was an S to start) and i was using a Vrod headlight, so I made my own out of thin sheet Al with a hacksaw, file, and drill.
