Poly shock bushings

I am planning to replace the stock shock bushings with poly ones.
A quick search showed these :

Is there a better source?

You can get them through any Honda dealer but they usually have to order them.

If you get OEM Valkyrie bushings, they won't be polyurethane... I heard OEM
VTX ones are and that they fit.
I think redeye stuff is always supposed to be good...

I think you will find the p ice of the OEM VTX green poly ones much more to your liking...and they are good. If the get the OEM Valkyrie ones, they will be rubber and not poly.
