the one piece clamp is the key  without it the bars torque in every direction. the neoprene bushings are nice, but folks have been running apes for as long as they've been choppin Harley's without neoprene  do the clamp right and I think the bushings are a matter of feel I like to feel some vibration to be able to detect when something changes cause I am hearing impaired so the stifffer neopren is the way to go for me others can hear every little tick or tock they're bike makes so they can go with the grips soft   tomAto  tomato  if you ask me

Well I swapped out the bushing yesterday.They are alot better and stiffer than the cheap rubber stock ones.Also it was a pain in the ass becaause the busings are taller than stock and you have limited clearance between the nut for the triple clamp(thru the risers) and the frame.I had to hang the bars from the ceiling(old ladys arms were getting tired)remove the top clamp,customize the bolt and nut so the clearance worked and bolt back together.What I thought would be a hour swap took all afternoon.But its done and on to bigger and better things.
