I found a 17MM drill bit with a long arbor on eBay.
The biggest problem is that they are slightly under 17MM (16.96mm) and the holes on your frame measure close to 17.05MM.
So, you may have to ream it a bit once you drill them.
Mine now fits snug but by hand.
However, the 43/64" drill bit (0.672") equals 17.07MM and I think would be a better choice.

99-02 KX 250 boot worked perfect with an aluminum adapter plate to adapt it to the airbox. 2008 KX 450F chassis. Good luck.
