Title: i need some advice after layin it down.
Post by Flugondus on 04/25/06 at 06:34:21

So i had my two little falls with my S40. Nothing too bad happened after the first one.
but the second one it baicall just fell on its side with me on it.
it feels different now. when the throttle cable starts pulling there is this little metalic noise that comes with the engine. and it doesnt do it when it idles id say it comes from the exhaust about where the right boot would be.
I was wondering what would be recommended to do and what the general check up after layin it down should be.
also it feels like the fall throw something else off. it feels like there is more vibration going in to the frame than before.
please help

The savage has a semi famous speedometer rattle. You may have hastened its coming. It tends to come with RPM, so that's my first guess. Try holding your thumd down on the rim of the speedo, or whole palm, and give it gas and see if that kills the noise.

i just had my pipe cut and rewelded. I saw several pipes inside. He didnt tac weld the inners before welding the pipe back on. Actually, he added the 6" extension w/ 8 degree bend. Anyway, now it rattles like hell when the revs are up. Im so annoyed with it. I punched the gas in the back yard and spun out then grabbed the brake and it slid out from under me and went down. But it didnt hurt anything.
