Title: Savage gearing
Post by gatsby_jld on 02/25/06 at 12:17:23

Has anyone changed the final drive ration on a savage?
I would like to make my wife's Savage more interstate friendly. Is there a sprocket swap that would work?

thanks

I don't know... mine is pretty interstate friendly as it sits. Any change will cause a sacrifice in lower end take-off ability I'd think.

there is a chain conversion for the ls650/savage then you might could give it longer legs - so far as I've ever read that's about it except for a taller tire some have played with

I've gone the other way with KLX's gearing, from 107 down to 100 @ redline (7500) in top. Roads 'round here are twisty. Not that I do 100 very often.
