Honda Shadow Solid Handlebar Riser Bushings - Fits Bikes With 34mm Riser Pocket

A must have if you have handlebar risers!

I didn't know these things existed when I bought and installed my handlebar risers on my 2022 Honda Shadow Phantom. When I installed my risers (with the factory rubber bushings), I didn't like how much flex there was at the tree. Got these solid bushings installed and everything feels rock solid now. If you're installing risers, do yourself a favor and get these bushings.

Rock Solid Upgrade – Huge Improvement in Stability

I recently swapped the stock bars on my 2013 Honda Shadow Phantom for the Traditional T-Bars from this shop and was VERY happy with the new feel right away. The riding position and overall control felt awesome. THOUGH… once I hit 50–70 mph in curves, the bike started to feel a little too shakey. I knew something had to be flexing. I was still running the original factory riser bushings (13 years old, mind you), and after reading the product description about how the stock rubber bushings get mushy over time and allow the bars to flex, it clicked immediately. That was 100% the issue. These Honda Shadow Solid Handlebar Riser Bushings (Black) were exactly what I needed. Installation was incredibly simple (check out the photos). I did one side at a time so I didn’t have to worry about alignment during re-installation. I used the top and both bottom bushings/washers as shown, and everything went together clean and tight. Unfortunately, and completely unrelated, less than a mile after installing them, my clutch cable decided to snap on me. Bad timing! So I’ll update this review once I get that sorted and can properly test the handling at speed. That said, just from the install and how solid everything feels now, I’m confident the brittle, flexible OEM rubber bushings were absolutely contributing to the instability. These solid bushings eliminate that flex and give you a much more direct, planted feel at the bars, which is exactly what you want when carving curves or making quick corrections. If you’re still running old factory rubber bushings, especially on a bike that’s over a decade old, don’t think twice. This is a simple upgrade that addresses a real safety and handling issue. Keep both wheels on the ground and keep on wrenching!

Great fit

It was time to replace the rubber boots so I bought these bushings. They fit perfectly and feel sturdy
