Cush Drive Rubbers - Aftermarket
I note on ebay that Bitz For Bikes is listing aftermarket replacement cush rubber sets for the XT660.
Does anyone have any experience of this product ? Surely anyone entering the aftermarket area with replacement cush rubbers would engineer a product that has an improved service life !!!

I've used unbranded rubbers. Ordered them by mistake from
AJ Sutton, thought I'd clicked on OE part and couldn't understand why they were so cheap when they arrived!
TBH, they haven't been any better or worse than the genuine article. |

Thanks for the feedback ... but damn I was hoping for a solution to the wear (general slop) problem without the need to resort to inner tube packing techniques
You would think Yamaha could fix this problem overnight with a simple rubber specification change ... it's not like they wouldn't go through a whole heap of them

The last set I had in my stock wheel were Wemoto ones. Can't say they were any better or worse, still had to pack them after a bit, but they were slightly cheaper than the OE ones.
I've fixed the problem now by sticking a Talon wheel in, but that did cost about as much as 30 sets of cush rubbers  . I've only got to do another 300,000 miles and it will have paid for itself
