Differences in Carb and Model Year?
06/04/07 at 10:14:46
 
someone was telling me that a Carb off of a Savage in the 80's is richer than a Carb of the 90's Savage and 2000's S40.  

I know that the original savage had a 4 speed transmission, but I never heard anything about switching carbs out and couldn't find anything to make me think this was true with a quick online search engine scan...

Can anyone here confirm or deny that an older carb is different than then newer carbs?

Mikuni BS40SS for both wasn't it?

I like persons better than principles, and I like persons with no principles better than anything else in the world.

The carb jetting specs shown in the Suzuki manual and in Reply # 1 to your message are not correct for all California models.  I have a 2003 California model and opened the carb up for rejetting.  I found the jet sizes were the same as USA models, not smaller as the list shows. I am the only one to have worked on my ??? carb. I wonder if there any other California Savage owners out there with similar findings?  

???

I stumbled accross this yesterday and noticed the same thing.  My CA model (it does have the carbon canister) has a 145 in it.

Some of the Out of Country members have stated the different numbers though.  So maybe that should read 'rest of the world'

I took the useless Carbon-Canister off form my 97' CA model and now use it to level the bike and check the Oil Level by placing it under the stand, fits perfectly  Grin
