Title: Re: performance engine upgrades for ls650 Post by Charon on 08/10/10 at 12:19:12 I am sure you already know this, but I'll point it out anyway. Unless you are just dead set on the Savage, you would spend a lot less time and money just trading for any used 600 cc sportbike in decent condition. |

The photo of REX in the "Rubber sidedown" section show dual disc but just one caliper...but I have another set of tubes with dual calipers and they will go on shortly. -steel trailer fender on rear and a front fender from a clearance sale of HD parts there are also forward controls from some European company I think...got them on ebay a while back Performance carb and cam info can be seen @ http://stores.ebay.com/SAVAGE-PERFORMANCE?_rdc=1 http://images1f.snapfish.com/232323232%7Ffp9%3A%3B%3Enu%3D323%3A%3E639%3E697%3EWSNRCG%3D32%3B74%3A34%3B8339nu0mrj http://images1f.snapfish.com/232323232%7Ffp937%3Enu%3D323%3A%3E639%3E697%3EWSNRCG%3D32%3B74%3A%3A3%3C%3B339nu0mrj http://images1f.snapfish.com/232323232%7Ffp8%3B%3B%3Enu%3D323%3A%3E639%3E697%3EWSNRCG%3D3285393%3A%3B5339nu0mrj |

Ive got an ignition bug thats been messing with me for a while with the mountain ride behind me and some other things done I should be able to focus on getting it solved will post a sound/video when its back up and on the road It is fast; I had a few days running prior to the Dragon ride and then it started messing with me 2 days before the ride...dang ! It was not loosened up yet so I don't know for sure what it is capable of yet. One thing for sure is that the exhaust coming out of REX is considerably more potent than before. The extra bump from the Stage 2 cam and the increase to 696cc with a 10.5 or 11 to 1 compression ratio really added a lot of punch to the exhaust. I have an extra garage space to work out of now so that will help a lot and I intend to focus on REX until he is up and running properly. I was a pilot in the military and have loved aviation since I was a kid...hence the aircraft style/look. I could not get the polished look I wanted on the steel tank and fenders so they are now paiinted in black truck bed "rhino lining" type stuff. It's tough and no maintenance...I like it. ;) The battery is a gel type I ordered off ebay early this year; about $65 dilivered; it exceeds the power level recommended for the Savage by quite a bit. I wanted to be sure there was plenty of power. My last battery was an Optima Dry Cell; loved that powerhouse and I will get another one when the parts bike comes to life sometime next year likely and the gel will be transferred to it while REX will get the Dry Cell. |

Title: Re: performance engine upgrades for ls650 Post by einheit13 on 08/16/10 at 18:33:11 Lancer, any gain in performance by kicking the carb out?? I know it did on single carb tiger motors on Triumphs-but they were twins.... |

Moving the carb to the outside was not a choice; after the frame was mod'd the carb would not fit in its normal location without contacting the new top frame tube extension so it had to go outside. I am now trying to make a HD manifold work but not sure if it will |
