You can use some rubber hose or get one from a dealer.

$6.00 @ Cheap Cycle Parts I paid $4.00 @ my dealer. The are tight but slide right on with a very light lube. Rubber hose is the same way., |

I replaced mine not to long ago and it was hell getting it on. Very, very tight fit. I would suggest a dab of dish soap.

I use a rubber protectant (armorall) on rubber parts when I want them to slip back on with minimum hassle. Any type of lube helps tremendously.

Be careful not to put too much lube on the shaft. You don't want the rubber to come off.
