Installed poly bushings in place of the stock handle bar bushings and wonder why I rode 5mins with them. Huge improvement and about 1/2 a beer job.

Yuup!

 

still new to the harley world but have read a lot on this mod. where did you buy the bushings and forgive me but where exactly do they go (i am assuming somewhere the handlebars mount)

 

They are the riser bushings in your top triple tree.

 

These are next on my list, just wondering what the general consensus is on which ones to go with. I've read some do not like the ones from drag specialties.

 

I tried the ones from DS they fit terribly. I swapped out to HD ones this winter. Tightened up the bars. i cant wait to try them as soon as the snow stops.

 

I run bushing eliminators.

 

Great, cheap and easy mod....

 

So, what exactly do these bushings do that is so much better?

 

Head service guy recommended them to me when i told him I was fitting apes, said they were a lot better than stock with high bars, having said that my apes still came loose, scary ****.
