I am about to put the 10" PY MBs on my wife's SG. I stopped by the HD dealer to get the poly bushings and they were $30.99. Every thread I have read says they are $40. The tag on the package looked like the MSRP for them. I did not put them on my RG when I installed my 10" PY OEM bars and I wish I had.

I didn't change mine out when I went with apes and really haven't seen a need yet. I guess one will not notice a difference until its done.

Thanks guys.....enough of you seem to believe in using them that I'm sold. I've learned to do things right the 1st time. I guess I'll see who has the best deal on the HD model# 56298-03.

The P&A book shows them at $39. Hope you get a good deal!

Definitely put them in they're well worth it. I don't think the brand makes much difference though so if you can get them on the cheap somewhere like eBay or an online discount house go for it.

$11.95 from Hillside Country Customs. They will also ship USPS which is a considerable savings. Total price was less than $20 shipped. I tried the bars (10" MBB) without them but was not comfortable with the amount of movement. Almost felt like the riser clamp was loose. The poly bushings firmed it up nicely.
