For wierd stuff I do to my Zuk, I usualy begin at google.com ;-) Google for images, forums, no need to be savage-specific, bikes are bikes, just get the general idea how that works and can you operate it comfortably. I wanted it and gave up. Trafic is so dense here that I shift a lot and need both hands on grips. Once you get ideas on how it CAN be done, think over options again. That's the start. Next is a sketch, measures, welding & bending...

Look at the kikker's suicide system,
it's as simple as they come, real low
and discrete sitting under one's left
thigh; these bikes are semi-automatic
so there is no need for a clutch.

Just saw in an ATV catalog an extension for the foot shift on an ATV that would solve the shifter extension part, no jusy rig a foot operated clutch and you are in heaven. Max Found the catalog again shadetreepowersports.com Americian ATV Hand shifters.
