Yamaha Bolt riser bushings / washers - the final solution


The custom made washers (4) have finally been installed and the handlebars now have virtually no play at all. The effects on vibrations is a big question at this point as test riding is not possible due to the sub zero temperatures.

Below you can see the amount of play before the installation

Just a heads up. It seems that SS custom cycle has these for sale now so you don't need to have ones made when installing taller bars or risers. SS Custom Cycle website

    Hi, I'm wondering if ALL 4 of the washers are 3mm thick? or just the top 2?
    If the bottom 2 are thinner, could you share what thickness they are?
    Thank you so much!
