Knock yourself out.

And they have some interesting bars if you get tired of factory buckhorn or drag styles. And the cable clamps are great.

I did put on a Mistic high bar, 900mm w 140mm h 210mm pb. Almost what original wire can give.

OK..isn't the left grip a 7/8" while the right one is 1"?

I was looking at these grips for my 98 Savage:

No....you need to believe us. The handlebars are 1' diameter - and the throttle grip will be larger to fit on the throttle tube - but most places won't list the larger size of that grip.

The link you provides is for a Suzuki Savage A100.....not for an LS650 or S40. You have to be careful as Suzuki used the Savage name for the TS250...and it appeas for the A100 as well. Not all Savage bikes are the same.

Thanks Dave! That's why I always check with you people on here! :) Too bad too! I liked those grips. Oh well, I'll find something else I like. Why can't they make it easy, huh? :)

You can always buy grips for the look :) but I put on for use :) they should be comfortable day long.

bought some 'emgo' flattrack bars from 'amazon' $28.00 and free delivery.
I'm very frugal, aka cheap! using the stock riser bottoms without extensions so I also saved another $30.00
Pretty soon this bike will owe me money!!!!!! ;D
