Source for 750 K2 Headlight / Fork Ear Bushings

[KMan]

Hi,

Anybody know a source for the rubber bushings inside the headlight / fork ears? Rehabbing a barn find K1/K2. It came to me as a '71 frame & motor with a '72 front end. It sat for quite some time before I got it and most all the rubber bits on it need replacing. There are used bushings on eBay but I'd much rather use new ones. Searched online but can't seem to find new replacements. The plan is to build a sharp looking rider...a museum / show bike so I'm ok with using new / other than original stock parts.

Check to see if they are the same size as GL1000s, which use similar ears. Doubt you will find new ones, but I've found old ones for the GoldWing that were in great shape as they are shielded from sunlight and don't get hot.

Thanks. Will definitely look into the GL1000

Also meant to say I'm NOT building a museum piece / show bike in my original post.
