Honda upgraded some VTX bushings, Part nr 52489-HNO-671 , a much better bushing (even cheaper than) that the stock black bushing. My local dealer price matched DLP prices too.... a pair for under 5 bucks  They are actually the lower bushing for a VTX1800F (the upper being a needle/roller bearing in lieu of bushing). These lowers fit and work great.... and are only 2.50 each at DLP. I put a set on the VTX and Valkyrie... and have a spare set on the shelf. |

I can double check the part number when I get home, I bought a dozen for stock at about $2 each. They are a greenish color, install and fit perfect. Redline |

Thanks Redline, I'd appreciate it. Mine wore through pretty fast & if I can get something that will last I'll just put the new oem up as spares. DG.

As listed above, the VTX bushing, an upgraded version of the Valk bushing, is Honda part number 52489-HN0-671. I paid $1.98 each. Redline |
