§ 02 / About this part

What it is

The SHOWA GUIDE BUSH 49MM, suspension. Stocked by Iron Offroad, the UK MX hard parts specialist.

The guide bush rides on the 49mm inner tube and locates it inside the outer stanchion as the fork strokes. The PTFE-style coating takes the load instead of metal-on-metal contact. As that layer wears through, you get front-end stiction off the top of the stroke and lateral play that telegraphs through the bars on braking bumps. Fit a fresh pair every time you split the forks for a seal change. Skip it and the new seals will weep again within a few rides. Showa-spec dimension, so it drops straight into the 49mm KYB-pattern legs on CRF 250/450 and KX 450 chassis.

§ 05 / About Iron Offroad

Iron Offroad

Iron Offroad is the off-road sibling of Iron City and Iron Stable — a UK shop for motocross, enduro, and trail-bike hard parts. Every fitment lives on the site, listed against KTM, Husqvarna, GasGas, Yamaha, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Beta. Pick your bike on the timing-tower. Our USP is the data: fully enriched fitment so you find the right part for your bike quickly and get it fitted accurately. Brands you'd find on a paddock workbench — pads, sprockets, plastics, fork seals, cables, gaskets, bars, the things that actually wear out. Road-bike kit, scooter parts, and quad gear sit elsewhere; dirt and e-moto only. We operate from our storage facility in Leeds. Iron Offroad is a trading name of Iron Stable Ltd, registered in Mildenhall — Company No. 17061294. The business has a rich motorcycle history across multiple moto brands — the photos show where we came from — and recently pivoted into hard parts and online retail.
