Savage slowing down or am I speeding up???

Lately, been noticing that the suzi's mid-range has a bit of a flat spot!! Weird, cuz I'm a new biker so she always seemed fast to me( 0-60mph in 6.92 seconds is fast!) but now I notice she seems to flatten out a bit after 40 mph or so.

She's totally stock and runs really well.

Time to think of winter upgrades, maybe!?!

Exhaust? Carb? Whaddaya think?

Savage is my first bike, but I noticed at first it felt like loads of power. One month later the entire throttle was managable at any speed. One year later and a muffler, new jets and a K&N and I was happy again. Full throttle is still no problem but it actually goes so you have to be a little more careful with it. First time I took it to work after the mods I was running a little late. Took off from a stop light like I always did except for the front end came flying off the ground for ten feet or so. Kinda cool, but I've tired to avoid that since.

Reply #4 - 11/07/05 at 17:18:40 do the mods and tune it right - it's a blast - with those hogs I was playing with this weekend - if my clutch comes out first from a light it takes all they got to catch the '95 before about 70.
