If you need to, you can pack out the old ones with some high density rubber from Clark Rubber.
You just need to measure up and fill in the gaps a bit.

(Not the ideal solution but effective)

Cush Drive:
A drive to Mudgy and a few wines and then a drive back via Port Maquarie with a few coffees in between

Yeah the cush rubbers are in the rear hub. The rubber compresses over time and they become a bit loose and cause a bit of wheel lash when accellerating.
They usually last quite a long time but and should be good for at least 5 years or so.
Maybe consider replacing at about 75,000 or sooner if they are obviously real loose.

Just my opinion.

p.s. The harder you ride your bike, the quicker they wear out.

boostbysmith sells the tough polyurethane ones for 50USD plus postage. they might be a better option if you have to spend the coin.
There is no strong performance without a little fanaticism in the performer

Thank's horndog, I stumbled onto boostbysmith & have ordered a set,
mine are still fine after 30,000 .but i like to have spare's for the future just in case. I did buy a triumph T160 new & kept it for 26 yrs, so i may need the cush drive b4 I die. well done with the explanation busgo.
