Title: Concerning Grips & Footpegs
Post by Jesse on 02/17/06 at 13:09:52

in the process of rebuilding my bike, painting, cleaning and replacing, i would like to replace all four footpegs and both grips. Browsing ebay i seem to find grips that will only fit a 1995 savage or newer. Same issue with some of the footpegs, or the seller tells me they don't think they will fit a savage. What do i need to know so i can purchase the correct pegs and grips? handlebar is 1" correct?

here are some pegs i was interested in..

would those fit? the seller told me they wouldnt...
here are the grips i wanted to match:

I'm wondering about those pegs too. I'd like to replace mine but I'm curious about the fit. My pegs have this birdbeak looking prong on the ends that support the weight & without it, seems like they'd droop down. But I've never seen aftermarket pegs with those prongs.

Highway Hawk makes pegs that fit the Savage. Bikercom.com (http://www.bikercom.com) sells HH (although for some reason my browser isn't working too well on their site today).

I bought pegs that would fit a Harley after reading on Bert's site that they would work - they didn't. It may be you could get the passenger footpegs to work (replacing the mounting bolts) but the front - Babbalou is correct about the prong - Harley pegs don't have it and just flop downward. A work-around may happen on the right side, but the left side isn't going to without a bunch of work since it's intergrated with the kick stand mount. I eventually put them on my wife's bike as highway pegs.

I have Sportster pegs on my Savage...If I remember corectly (im old) You have to flip them left to right and turn them upside down...also drill out the mounting hole...Savage has a larger mounting bolt..

If you can,get big diameter grips. I have 38mm now and they are much better than the old 33mm ones.

The 6240 is the correct model for the Savage for the grips. U will need to shave your throttle sleeve's ridges so it is a snug fit but not too tight. They give ya some adhesive that works great. U can get helmet locks for them as well as end caps and even a throttle boss (kinda like cruise control and u rest the palm of ur hand on it).

helmet lock website (http://www.kewlmetal.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30&ctl=CatalogItemDetails&mid=355&CatalogItemID=107&CatalogID=1)

As far as the pegs and ect Im not sure. Check www.ebaymotors.com for the best deal. I saved over 20.00 off my grips when i ordered them there with stilleto end caps.

here is a pair for 45.00 +5.00 shipping (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Kuryakyn-ISO-Grips-for-1-bars-Honda-Yamaha-Suzuki-6240_W0QQitemZ4617362215QQcategoryZ34284QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem). not too shabby
