What engine is this?

Can any of you tell me what engine is in the LS650? I'm not familiar with this oiler design.

It is a Savage engine that someone cleverly added a piece to the outside to make it look like there was a pushrod tube on it. It is just for looks.

It's a towershaft dummy on a Savage engine.
Nice looking though.

Thanks for your expertise! I couldn't come to believe it was actually a Suzuki pushrod engine nor had I ever seen one like it. It sure got my attention.

Besides the phony push rod tube there are a couple of other things that stand out, to me, on this Savage: Note the dropped battery box and rectifier relocated onto the fender. I like both ideas!

Nice forward controls, directionals in the handgrips, and horn remounted under triple tree. Dyam! This bike has some stank on it! 8)

looks like it has an after market tank. It also seems to be missing the speedo cable. I wonder what will ahppen when they decide to do something about the exhaust.

FYI: The horn location is typical for European bikes.
He has a bicycle computer installed: see the curled wire around the brake line ( stainless).
The tank appears to be original and the battery box has it's topside ( the plastic part) removed
The blinker on the steering bar end are the same as mine ( 20usd each).
