Need some new rear Pro-Link suspension bushings for your Honda GL500, GL650, CX500 Turbo, CX650 Turbo or CX650E? Here are the dimensions we had ours made to for a Honda CX650ED. If you have any more information about this or another model, please let us know!
The longest – two of for the GL500, CX500 Turbo, CX650 Turbo, CX650E and GL650 – part number 52475-MA1-000:
Length:
Outside diameter – this applies to all of the collars:
Internal diameter – this applies to all of the collars:
The middle size – 52453-MA1-731 – this one is for the top of the shock absorber and applies to the CX500 Turbo, CX650E, CX650 Turbo and GL650. The GL500’s top piece is part number 52453-MA1-003 and we don’t know if that differs size-wise. This one is also used on the VF500F’s rear shock setup:
Smallest – two of for the CX500 Turbo, CX650 Turbo, CX650E and GL650 (and also used on the CBX1000 ’81-’82) – part number 52462-MA2-000. GL500 uses 52473-MA0-000, superseded by 52473-MA0-010 then 52473-MA0-020 and I don’t have data for that one. The last part number matches to a huge number of vehicles – CR125R, CR250R, CR450R, XR200R, CR480R, CR80R, XL250R, XL500R, XR200R and a heap more:

These could perhaps by improved by the addition of a grease spiral; otherwise they seem to be working perfectly well in practice. Anyone know the dimensions of the bushings that they sit in? Let us know on the contact page.
