First place I'd go to is whoever sold you the bike. That should be under warranty. I have made these bushings before out of 1/2 inch hydraulic hose and 2 extra washers each side, but that is what is called a PITA. I had to make some for my 500cc Triumph brush jumper, as I couldn't find any anywhere. Of course the Triumph was about 20 years old when this happened, so I wasn't real upset.
