handle bar Bushings

[kidwell03]

Deployed at the moment and where I'm at the net sucks a big donkey. Takes almost 20 mins to load a page. So my 05 vegas needs new handle bar bushings, I have 6'' risers and 14'' apes, I'm in need of a part number or a good place to order them from, I do not want the stock bushings. I need something with zero play please. Are all year model bushings the same? Thanks in advance

I think you might be out of luck.I havent heard of anyone making an after market stiffer bushing.the new models have a different bushing thats more solid but i think you have to change the top triple tree to the new style to take the new bushings.

If you can't find any you can always take the stock one to a machine shop and have them make a couple of solid steel ones for you. Very easy to do on a lathe.

Aftermarket ones are made. I don't recall the website but if you do some searching on this forum you will find it in another thread on this same topic. You're also welcome to steel my $5 idea which will stiffen them right up and is very easy to do.

Actually since I'm a nice guy and you're dealing with a slow internet connection I found the link for you http://www.brcustomcycles.com/Handlebar_Accessories.php
