**THESE BUSHINGS ARE MADE OF HYPERFLEX POLYURETHANE WHICH ARE MUCH MORE DURABLE THAN RUBBER, WHEN INSTALLING THE SHOCKS ON YOUR VTX, BUSHINGS MAY SEEM TIGHT BUT THEY DO FIT & ARE THE PROPER SIZE. FOR EASIER INSTALLATION RUB THE INNER HOLE OF THE BUSHINGS WITH A LITTLE GREASE. AFTER INSTALLATION YOU WILL NOTICE THE SHOCK MOUNT TOP & BOTTOM DO NOT FULLY GO THROUGH THE ENTIRE BUSHINGS THIS IS NORMAL & SAFE WHEN INSTALLED WITH OUR PROVIDED BOLTS & WASHERS, PLEASE PURCHASE BLUE LOCTITE & APPY IT TO THE BOLTS. TORQUE THE SHOCK BOLTS TO HONDA FACTORY SPECS WHICH IS 20 FT LBS. LONGER BOLTS GO ON THE TOP SHORTER GO ON THE BOTTOM**
