Default Arlen Ness Polyurethane Bushings

Anyone ever use these? I want to upgrade my riser bushings and the Arlen Ness ones are about 15 bucks cheaper than Harley's. I've never heard great things about Arlen ness products in the past (had a bad experience with their fairing myself), didn't know if the bushings were any different.

Thanks!

The bushings work great....I would rather spend the extra $15, than to ever put one thin dime in Arlen Ness's pocket.

I have tried several brands of poly bushings and teh harley's have always been by far the stiffest and best.

I was thinking something similar, I figured I might be able to grit my teeth and buy the ness ones if they were better.

The Harley ones are better....I'd just go that way if I were you.

I had a buddy of mine make a set out of aluminum that worked really well.

The poly bushings made a huge difference on my LR. Much better than the stock rubber ones. Bought mine from Denis Kirk. They were the drag specialties and cost about $10. If I remember correctly they were close to $20 with shipping.
