New front pegs
06/04/16 at 20:21:15

I need new pegs. I did some research here and I know there's someone selling them on eBay that are drilled to fit the savage. I think their called dzcustoms, anyway there around $60. I also noticed I can get these same pegs online for about 20 to 30 less. Why can't I just drill my own hole to make them fit my savage? Am I missing something?
A little help ☺☺☺.

As I recall someone used an inexpensive bushing from Ace Hardware to adapt a Chinese knockoff of the Sportster pegs to the Savage/S40. You may be able to figure it out yourself. If you look at The Market Place you may find someone selling genuine Suzuki pegs. Kenny G

That little foot-stop on the end of factory Savage pegs helps support and keep the pegs horizontal. Aftermarket pegs won't have it... but many people work around that,.. mostly by tightening the pegs down to rigid.. I think... $30 is a high price for two holes..

You can drill them yourself, but may require some fitting to make them perfect.

Depending on the pegs you get you should do the same... Better than making a bunch a trips
