SuzukiSavage.com - First oil change

gungho YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 11	First oil change 05/26/08 at 12:50:32 I am not bad with a wrench, and even better if I have instructions. I overfilled it and had to drain some out, but otherwise it went well. Next up is the brake pads and replacing the footpegs, they are a bit bent.

If you're looking for footpegs, I found a pair of Highway Hawk rider pegs for $39.00 here: http://www.betterbikeparts.com/bbp-store/bmy_search.php?prevbrand=11&in_categ.... I actually called in the order as the website seemed a bit cheesy, but everything went fine. The also give you additional washers, which you're gonna need. Intsall took 10 minutes.

What do they look like? I went to the site and "no image available" where the picture should be.

There's another link to click on that shows the picture!("see details")

I went to Ronayers and checked for a difference between a 2002 LS650 Savage and 2006 LS650, S40 footrest. They show the same part # for the front footrest bar, which unless I'm missing something would indicate to me they are interchangable.

I have yet to see a photo of the Highway Hawk rests in the above link as they do not display on my screen. Any photo I can find anywhere of either the HH733-310 Classic or HH733-311 Cushioned footrest for the LS650 appears to be either generic or the wrong peg. Did the pegs you received look exactly like the photo?

They're typical chrome w/black O-Ring pegs, didn't see any passenger pegs. They have the hook on the end to keep the pegs from sagging.

As I mentioned, the pegs arrived and have the hook on the end, and will mount the same as stock, with the addition of a couple of washers.
