Cush drive Rubbers

Post by jono49 »

Changed my Tyres front and rear yesterday "Diablo Strada" on it now, But in the process i found my cush drive rubbers have a fair bit of play in them! So the question is what to buy?.... should it be Honda again or Pattern parts ?

They all seem to last a couple of years or so, on pattern ones the little link straps seem to break after a while.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

David Silver spares for OEM ones are £32.....But young Calum the parts lad at my local Honda dealers may be able to match that but minus the postage 8)

cut up some plastic strip from any containers you have in the shed, and fit then as shims to take up the slack.

Chocolate chip works works well, with strawberry close behind
