Title: Forward controls
Post by Capt. Sam on 02/18/06 at 19:50:12

Hello all.

New to the site (great site} and have read a lot of articles and posts on it.

I have had a lot of bikes in the past , mostly big bikes.
Saw the little thumper and fell in love with it.
It has a Jardine pipe and is jetted ect.

I changed the handlebars last week to give me a little more elbow room.
Went to Highway Hawks site to look at forward controls but they didn't list any for the Savage, they did have some universal ones but how much fab. would that take?

I saw Ed-L's home made ones (nice job) but as I live on a 40ft sailboat on the saltwater I would like to find chrome one's .

I saw some chrome one's in the Gallery on some of the bikes , any info would be great.

Welcome.

Check out the thread on Custom Fork Braces. I posted a link to some pretty nice chrome forward controls for the ls650. They are $459 bucks though. They look really nice - but it's too rich for me right now! If you get them, please report back on 'em.

They are good looking controls but they are pretty proud of them.

I think they are a little steep for me too.
If I break down and get them I will let you know.

Thanks for the reply.
