125-200cc aluminium cone bars mounts / alternative to BRP

I ask again in this part of the forum, because maybe not everybody is reading the general part too.

Does someone know if there is an alternative to the BRP rubber killers ?

Unfortunately, we cannot get them in Europe without excessive shipping costs.

I can get the ones from Zeta, but not sure wich one matches with the shape of the Husqvarna upper tripple clamp.

Thanks in advance

I have a set of the Zeta ones in my KX125 and I think I have a set of BRP ones floating around I can compare them to. I'll check around some time this week.

Thanks, that would be nice.

According to my measurements, the shape of the cone of the original rubbers of my bike is as follows:
larger diameter: 22 mm
smaller diameter: 18 mm
length of the conical part: 11,5 mm

The diameter of the collar is 26 mm and the overall length 15,5 or 15,7 mm, but that is less important, since this part of the rubber insert is outside the upper clamp.

No go on the Kawasaki ones. The taper is different. (also the center hole is a smaller diameter on the Husky)

Thanks a lot for your feedback, much appreciated!

I asked Zeta about the dimensions of the Honda rubber killers (part number ZE37-0311)

The reply was:

So they should not fit the HVA upper clamp as well.

jeanjean

could you not find a privateer machinist to just turn you some?

The Zeta cones for Honda fit the HVA triple clamp. They are only a bit higher.

I have some good friends owning a lathe, but I it's not easy to spin a conus.

And the Zeta cones are not expensive.

Nice price on Ebay @ $16!

I got a set of the Honda bushings. Too large. Need the smaller bushings for my 05 TC250. Still looking

Do you have conical bushings in the '05?

According to what I know, the HVAs had cylindrical bushings until 2010.



jeanjean

My stock bushings are like the one on the right. I ordered some bushings from a dealer of course they come in and are like the bushings on the left. Got to be some alum bushings out there for another bike that are small and tapered.

Someone with a lathe or a machine shop can turn those down for ya or even make some to fit

The ones from BRP should fit, see the link on my first post.

I have a set of the ZE37-0311 rubber killer Zeta. See if they can be persuaded to fit. Thanks
