Title: Any idea what they are?
Post by SoC on 01/29/18 at 20:30:06

So I bought the bike from the "looking for donor thread". I am in process of taking it apart and doing mock up of mods for my other Savage on it. Today I removed the rear turn signals which were both broken off, and attached to one of them with cable ties and a wrap of tape wrap were 4 brackets of some sort. Of the 4, 3 are the same and one is different. Picture shows them. Don't have a clue of what they are or where they came from. Turn signals were still attached to bike though dangling and connected. These were taped to them. The hole drilled in the larger one looks to have been done later. They appear to basically be 1/8" aluminum flat stock.

Maybe used for attaching a muffler to the muffler bracket.

I don't recognize these as a Suzuki Savage part.

They look to me like the kind of thing you'd use to relocate the bolts on something, like the license plate perhaps.

I've cut and drilled pieces like these a lot of times to bolt up a replacement muffler.
How long are these ?

Thanks guys, The muffler was a Supertrap and it was bolted up with the proper hardware. The 3 short ones are about 3". The license plate thing may be a possibility, maybe something attached to the bracket. Since nobody seems to recognize them, they were probably to attach some add on thing that's no longer there. Just wanted some confirmation that they are not something recognized as important.

I thought it was part of the Flux Capacitor.

left over parts is what happens when the flux capacitor goes faster than the vehicle ;)

Nah, this bike is puking up broken parts. More likely it's a reflux capacitor.
