After much trial, error, and research I have found a great solution for our ongoing dilemma of worn-out, squishy handlebar bushings, without going to expensive solid metal.

Each kit includes:
- Four top-quality polyurethane bushings
- Two steel inner sleeves
- Four nylon washers
- Two stainless steel fender washers
- Two stainless steel split-lock washers
- Two stainless steel nuts
- Two stainless steel clips

This setup is a perfect fit and provides ample vibration damping and is extremely durable.

This kit will fit all XS models from ‘77-‘83

That is a very nice, well thought out, professional looking set up. Well done!
 
'70 XS1 and early '71 XS1B used (4) unique 256-23434-00 conical bushings.
Late '71 XS1B to '76 XS650C used (4) 256-23434-01 straight wall bushings.
'77-'78 used (4) slightly different 1J7-23434-00 straight wall bushings.
'79-'83 used (4) 1T4-23434-00 straight wall bushings.

I have NO dimensional info on these bushings.
Which set does your offering replace?

2many, whats a Durometer rating.? Seriously, I've lead a very sheltered life.:thumbsdown:

Haha, a safe place. They know us there.

Durometer is just a measurement of the hardness/squishyness of rubber stuff.

You can Google "Durometer scale" and get descriptions like this. The Shore "A" is the most common scale.

Appear to be high quality.
They seem to have just the right amount of firmness.

These will eventually make their way into my XS1B.

Thanx, Brian

Woohoo!!! I’m working on the instructions now. I will email a .pdf to anyone that has ordered. It’s fairly self explanitory, but might be helpful
