the slop and flop in my bars is getting unrideable, will be ordering a 1-piece clamp but want some solid riser bushings. does anyone make some for our bikes?

 

I had 16" apes on my train...poly bushings worked for me - no play or wiggle at all

 

Alloy art Gooden Tite or any other Polyurethane riser bushing. You should be using these with apes for sure. A one piece clamp will help as well as you know.

got a link? poly bushes sound expensive

edit.. hahah just search and there like 10-12 bucks

 

I installed a one piece clamp and poly bushings. BIG improvement. Got the bushings from Dennis Kirk.

Stock vs one piece




Stock vs poly

 

THANKS guys!! found everything i need. sould be about ~$50 for clamp and bushes i figured it would be well over 100 haha should of did it when i got the bars..

 

With the bars you have, there is a lot more leverage on the clamp and bushings. I have +2 sweepers and I noticed it. Much be much more with those apes.

 

who makes that one piece clamp pictured? cost?

 

Do you get more vibration with the poly bushings? I was reading this thread and thought about that. I didn't change mine when I put the bars on but I am wondering if I should go back and do this.

 

Poly bushing are a must with apes. No extra vibration on my bars.
