Title: S40 Handlebars Post by Lil Em on 05/17/06 at 17:08:05 Does anyone out there know if the S40 handlebars and risers will fit the LS650? I have a 97' that I have yet to make any changes to and this is one of the changes I wish to make. |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by Tammi on 05/18/06 at 06:13:50 Lil Em, Look at the cartoon Kropatchek includes in his sig. Now ask yourself, should I trust an answer about handlebars and risers from this guy? ;D Cheers. Tammi |

You better do, I proved it. The risers on my bike are from an Intrueder, they fit also http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/7053/wipfront8vn.jpg Greetz Kropatchek 8) |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by Lil Em on 05/18/06 at 10:31:34 Sweet. Thanks for responding. My local Suzuki dealer didn't even know the answer. Gotta love it. I will be getting those handlebars on real soon. Pictures to follow. Thanks again. |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by magicfairy on 05/18/06 at 17:32:12 Those bars really make the bike look good. I am constantly suprised by the number of people that come up to me asking what my bike is. (white 2005 S40) The common comment when they find out it is Savage (and not a baby Harley) is "those bars make it look much better than the old Savage, I really like it" Meanwhile my partner with his big black "Llimited Edition Hayabusa with Titanium exhaust" shakes his head in wonder as he and his pride and joy are ignored. Hilarous. |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by PerrydaSavage on 05/19/06 at 00:54:06 Thumperclone ... if you ever decide to replace your S40's bars and risers, I just might be interested in taking them off your hands ... |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by necropsy on 05/19/06 at 06:14:42 I think the risers on the S40 look way too tall, especially with such a narrow drag bar. I'd like to see the S40 bars on the Savage risers, or at least somewhere in between. |
|
Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by Lil Em on 05/19/06 at 08:16:25 Do you know if the bars will fit using the Savage risers? Local dealer says $300 for bars and risers. Is that accurate? Haven't shopped anywhere else. Any other options? |
|
Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by necropsy on 05/19/06 at 08:39:55 Buckhorn bars on s40 risers? Eewww!! The S40 bars should fit fine with the savage risers and vice versa. I just check Ron Ayers, and that looks to be about the right price. S40 bars are $73.66 |

i found some riser blocks gives me the 1" im lookin for, doubt id replace the stock risers and bars...sorry :( |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by Aktlingit on 05/19/06 at 10:48:30 Where did you find the riser blocks? I have been looking for a set, they work great on my XS650 but those are 7/8" bars and I need the 1". Cost? I believe that you can remove the long stem on the S40 risers and use a shorter bolt. |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by PerrydaSavage on 05/19/06 at 11:01:29 I've heard of people using sockets (as in socket wrenches, not sure of size though ...) to give some lift to the stock Savage risers ... |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by barb36jack31 on 05/20/06 at 19:36:18 I think the S40 bars are too short. I plan to replace them this summer with wider flat bars so I have more leverage for slow speed stability. Any suggestions as to where I can get the bars> Jack H. |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by Lil Em on 05/23/06 at 12:00:20 Hey Kropatchek. Where did you get your Intrueder risers from? And how much were they? Thanks, Emily |

Title: Re: S40 Handlebars Post by cstout on 05/23/06 at 19:26:35 The part numbers for the master cylinder are different between the older years with the buckhorn bars and the newer style. Will the older master cylinder work on the newer bars or will it have to be replaced? |
