Everyone -
Most of you already know my obsession with swingarm bushings - their critical importance to your safety, as well as my complete dissatisfaction with the quality and durability of the original and replacement parts.
I won't relate the horrific experience that made the safety issue so important to me - and it's ridiculous that even the steel replacements are only good for maybe 10,000 miles at best.
So I've found a dependable vendor for bronze swingarm bushings - these are produced in small lots of 50 pairs at a time by a quality-obsessed machine shop.
They will last almost forever, essentially. You'll most likely never have to replace them again once you've installed them, and that makes the cost even more reasonable.
I have no vested interest in this, and make no money off it - I just worked out the deal as a service to everyone here.
These bushings are a direct replacement for Honda part numbers 52109-283-300, 52108-300-300 , and 52108-457-300.
As such, they will fit all CB/CL 450, CB750 K-series, CB360, CB500T, CB400F, CB500/550.
Probably other models that I don't know of as well.
The fellow coordinating this deal originally had them made as a one-off deal for his 1979 CBX, which use the CB450 K6/K7 (457) part number.
His price is $32.50 per set plus shipping.
Shipping/handling to U.S. & Canadian destinations will be $4.95 and $9.95 for all overseas destinations.
He prefers PayPal, but you can talk to him about other options, if PayPal is not your thing.
I personally think that at this price, you can't let this pass, folks.
He will be selling them on EBay, but for a higher price than this - tell him you are from HondaTwins.net.
