Review on ๐Ÿ๏ธ Arlen Ness 08-029 Polyurethane Riser Bushing Kit: Maximum Stability and Durability for Your Motorcycle Handlebars by Michael Daniels

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Surprising improvement

2006 Road King Classic. Incredible improvement over stock sockets. I've owned my RKC since it was new and recently noticed a spongy feel in the bars. I'm not sure if the stock bushings are just absolute junk or mine have worn out over time, which I haven't noticed. but DAMN! AMAZING improvement after installation. The entire front appears to be closed. The install difficulty was 2.5 out of 10 and I'm mechanically inclined. Anyone looking to tackle this alone should be VERY aware that the bars/controls can damage your tank and removing the headlight/nacelle can damage your fender. MAKE SURE you drape the tank/fender with heavy fabric and if you get in the way of the bars a simple trick is to attach/support them to the ceiling (garage for coulter rail or hooks).

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine
