Default Handlebar bushings

Guys, what is the best handlebar bushings? I want to upgrade my stock ones but not sure if I should go with the expensive HD polyurethane ones or some other ones for less money. I think Drag sells some for less than 15.

You're talking a couple bills difference. Go with the poly and know you did the right thing for you and your bike. Can't tell you about different brands but poly is poly????

Gotta be careful when aftermarket catalog shopping and make sure they fit. If they say "fits all models from '73 up, I don't think the will fit a late model touring tree.

Thanks for the help but I think I am more confused than before. Does any body have any recommendations for poly handle bar bushings.
