Are there at present any forward controls available for the scr that would move them like 4-5 inches foreward? Or is the bike just too new? Thank you.,

I have a Yamaha bolt I'm looking to trade foot controls for scr950 controls. My bolt is in mint condition and has 1,900 miles. The bolt controls are about 4 inches more forward than the scr950.

Are the controls compatible between the two bikes?

 

[Thehydro]

Yes they are. When you swap them over you have to swap over everything that bolts to the frame up like the shifter and brake lever. The scr950 uses the same controls as the bolt c spec which are all interchangeable. If you are interested in working out a swap shoot me a private message and we can work out the details.

Usually when you see a custom motorcycle it doesn't have mirrors. Why? Because by nature mirrors are ugly - the SCR's especially so.
Question: Do you want an excellent view of whats going on behind you or are you wanting to improve the looks of your bike? I doubt you can do both. I installed cheapie bar ends on mine. I think they look better than stock and perform about the same.

I also find the stock SCR950 foot peg position too far back and noticed Yamaha offers a rather pricey Relocation Kit, part number 1TP-F14A0-V0, for the Bolt XV950. It’s cheaper on Amazon or eBay, by the way.

The kit should place the foot pegs around 4” forward but Yamaha doesn’t list this application for the SCR950. Since the frames are the same I see no reason why it wouldn’t fit.

Hoping for some feedback from anyone who actually does this mod.

I'm real interested to see the look/feel of the forward controls. Hope anyone who gets it done can share some photos and thoughts.

Well, SS Custom Cycle also offers a Forward Control Relocation Kit for the Bolt at about half the price of Yamaha’s:

This looks too far forward for the SCR950 with its taller seat in my opinion.

You can see these controls mounted in this Youtube walk around of a custom Bolt at 1:54 minutes in:

Do you think it will be comfortable to move them more forward? it seems like a have a different sitting position. Can't even imagine how it's going to look like. Please send a photo of the final result, if it will work out.

It says on the page that it wont fit the C spec which is the same as the scr.

Did anyone ever do this yet? It’s something I’m considering as long as it works.

I'm wondering the same thing. My hips could probably benefit from this.
