96 XTZ 660 Bars
Anyone on here had one of these. Not long picked it up and here in UK it doesnt seem that popular so gathering any info is hard.
The handle bars feel very loose and seem to have the same problems that affect old Transalps of twisted feeling. Do they have separate part bushings that go inside the top clamp that become perished over the years if anyone knows ?? |

I replaced my rubberbushings with some DIY in "pom" (hard "plastic") It sorted the wobbly stearing. The rubberbushings needed to be pressed out.

Jeez.. very inventive..... beyond me. So I guess its because they are old and perishing then that is causing this annoyance. I wonder whether it would be worth just buying another second hand top yolk
One fix on Transalps was to put large washer on underneath and tighten lots to take out some of the bushes wobblyness |

I have come across these very same fixings from a company called Kedo. Before I think thats the solution can anyone say whether these make vibes much worse, or would it be better to get some new bushes fitted.
