Add a stainless penny washer under the head of each of the 6 hanger bolts and it'll stiffen them up. Bushes are replaceable but cost around £25 each so it works out a bit expensive.
It's a fix commonly used on Suzuki Bandit peg hangers.

Not replace - but can hide. When I had my 14, I used the aluminium counter sunk washers and stainless screws from Probolt.
