I ride almost everyday to work and back which even still makes me smile, but yesterday I had the day off with the house to myself so I decided to go on a longer then work and back run. Called a couple friends but everyone was busy so I set out for a solo date. Ran just a quick 67 miles through eastern Nebraska south of Omaha. As if having a quite house to myself wasn't good enough, taking the ride made my day that much better. Would have kept going past the house but I hadn't started my honey do list yet which went by that much quicker and better also.

i took my savage out about a week ago and it was running sweet. had it up to about 75 a couple of times. handles way better than my chop. can't wait to get it back together and ride it some more, it's gonna get cold and i love cold weather.

Couldn't agree more!!!
Part of the blast of my trip was shocking people with my bike!
"What the hell is that?" I heard so often.
It's amazing how many people didn't know this bike existed, and, the ones that knew about bikes said "I bet that's a blast to ride"
...It sure is.

Been riding my Savage to and from work for just over a year now. It's amazing how fast your troubles at work fade away on this thing! In fact its pretty hard to have a bad day when your riding. The only thing I notice is that sometimes there's something wrong with the steering right about the time I try to turn into work's parking lot. It's all I can do to get it to turn! But it always goes away as soon as I'm headed home. I think Thumpers just have better sense than their owners!

I know what you mean. Mine bites me hard on the a$$ when I shut her off and I can barely walk into work. Of course I tell the boss it's my back and can't bend over to save my life and stagger about all day. But come quiting time, I leap over the desk, slide down the stairs and run over and start ol shedder up and take the long way home. She's so happy she just purrs into the driveway. But she does pout when I shut her down, and mew mournfully as I walk away.

I love my Savage, I have an '06 C-50 sitting beside her in the garage & if I'm wanting to have fun the Savage is the one I ride. Hubby asked why I got the "Big Boy" if I was going to ride the Savage, told him it was more fun and blew his mind

Yesterday was the first time I had the little 06 Suzi out for a good ride in a few months. Beside the fact that it was to go to a funeral, it was one great ride. We went 400 miles yesterday, and except for getting caught in some heavy rain for about 10 miles, it was great. Ran 65-70 all the way, and coming home last night, the temp dropped a little, and the last 80 miles she purred like a sewing machine at around 70. She was a little tired when I put her to bed in the garage, but so was I.
