Does anyone know if 10 in apes will fit on a 1995 Savage?

As long as they are 1" they will fit the risers & controls...your problem may be with the wiring, cables & brake line. Probably 9 out of 10 people on here that have changed their bars to apes have had to replace the clutch cable, throttle cable, and brake line.

I had to do all 3 plus extend the wiring to swap these bars...



to these...

i was able to do the 10" apes without getting new cables.  its going to be a tight fit but you should be able to position them so that it just barely fits.

I had a set that I mounted to the bike last year, but never got around to getting cables made for them. I heard stories that the Savage cables would make it work, but it was just too tight (thats what he said) to work.

I need to find someone who can custom make me some cables and then I probably WILL swap them sometime. For now, I just went back to the stock bars so that I can ride this year.

When I did mine in the pics above, I disassembled the stock risers that are shown in the 1st pic and only used the clamping portion of the riser with some new bolts.  Saved $$$ from having to get new risers  Cool

so this may sound dumb, but i haven't taken mine apart yet to see how it all works, but how did you disassemble the stock risers and reuse the top portion to clamp them

aint - When you take your bars off, there is a bolt underneath to remove the top portion.

For mine - I picked up a set of risers from the Savage, since they had mini buckhorns with less rise than the S40.

On my '87, I used 3" risers and 6" buckhorns. All the cables and brake line fit nicely.
