Title: New Savage owner Post by D3fr4G on 04/30/19 at 12:13:43 Hello thanks for the add first of all. I recently bought a used 97 savage, I haven’t had the chance to ride the bike yet but I did notice that the shift appears to be bent a little bit. Has anyone had any luck with changing the shift lever to a aftermarket one?

If the rod is bent it may have to be replaced as it will tend to flex not allowing full travel. If it's just the pedal you should be able to apply pressure with an adjustable wrench to bend it back.
