    The standard HH tips fit and are available in varying additional lengths from 5-20mm. They need an extra washer or two as spacers when retrofitting and the OEM tip ground off as is riveted on. The OEM tip is real crap - just bent flat steel that can easily deform if knocked and gets an abrassive edge. HH do not though make a standard lever for Husky.

    Very grateful, BIG Dom. Have just ordered. You´re right about the standard tip.It looks very "Chinese".

    As Dom said, its a retrofit job but an easy task. I fitted mine up with a spacer i made myself and the stock return spring cut down a little. Works perfect:). Depending where you put the supplied washers/spacer, you can raise the tip a little more.

    hmmm...since the Pivot Pegz fitment chart has a special p/n for our bikes why should any retrofit be required? Any spacers or different springs or special instructions should be included shouldn't they? Especially considering their price.

    Sorry for the confusion, the pegs slip straight on:thumbsup:. Its the gear shift tip which requires a little "massaging".

    Well I recieved my package and all was good. Correct Husky Pivot Pegz and the red +20 Hammer Head shifter. Would I tempt fate again? Probably not, gambled once and going to walking away a winner. Now out to the garage to fit them.

    Your setup looks like you're ready for adventure. Do you really take off outdoors without a casesaver on the chain or was it just for this pic? I absolutely destroyed the case on my old YZ when the chain broke...

    Any recommendations re brand of case saver?

    Unless the case saver also comes with a knock down bar I don't think they do much good. Plenty of incidents where the case saver actually caused or still allowed case damage anyway. I would rather the clutch actuator gets destroyed and drive home without a clutch than to damage the case. New actuator is $130 in parts and 30 minute repair at home versus an expensive shop repair on the case. That is if it can be repaired, if case needs to be replaced then a set of cases is $1,200 plus bearings, gaskets and labor so total would be well over $2,000 easy.

    What's a knock down bar?

    Bar that mounts above the sprocket in conjunction with the case saver thus not allowing the chain to bunch up in the countershaft area.

    I have been waiting for this little jewel from 7602 Racing to show up. There seems to be lots of opinions out there as to if a case saver will really work or not, this has got to be better then the piece of plastic that comes stock on the bike.

    Agreed - I too have one exactly like that on order and am convinced it will faciltate good protection and certainly better than none at all! Your pic also shows very nicely the HH gear lever extended tip replacement. :applause:

    One question - this case saver seems to use the same locating bolt holes as the plastic boot cover? Does one fit them together??

    This morning I did some grinding on my right Pivot Peg to get it to fold up properly. As delivered the peg would barely kick up at all as it hit the stock "stop" at the back of the peg mount (630). All is well now. My WR had a cut out on the back edge of the peg to prevent this problem. PP should do the same for the 630.

    The HH tip that I ordered took a LOT more work than just spacers to work. Cut, chop, fit, drill, JB Weld, and several hours of work. They make several tips and what ever I bought was way off. Those who just had to add washers should put up the HH stock number for the next guy so he doesn't make the same error I made.

    The 610 has the the same PP problem on the RHS - it does swivel up a bit but not fully. There is a thread with the HH tip part number here somewhere I think.

    The stock cover uses separate screws to fasten the plastic cover to the stock thin metal case saver, which is bolted to the case with it's own bolts. So there are 4 fasteners total in the stock setup.

    I reused the stock metal plate, layered it over the new case saver and used slightly longer bolts. Then the plastic cover fits right on, but now a tad further from the case than before. You might have to use shorter screws for the plastic cover or else drill clearance holes in the case saver.

    No case saver at all on my 610? Maybe only the 630 has the thin one?

    My 09 610 did not have any type of case saver on it either.

    Anyone know if the MK3's come with rubber inserts... you know, for highspeed cruising? Emailed PP to ask about MK3 inserts and it returned undeliverable :( Anyone know of a safe and sure bet to order them online and to ask about rubber inserts?
