What year is my savage?
09/19/08 at 01:18:54
 
gday my names steve from the gold coast australia
Ive just bought a 1986 savage that was imported from japan last month.
only im not convinced its a 1986 model as it is a 5 speed and 5 position adjustable shockies, which i read on here were 4 position on 86 models

is there any way to confirm the year model from the chassis number? it doesnt have the usa 17 digit vin number.

GDay Steve,
    Since the engines are interchangeable across all years,  there is a possibility that you have a replacement engine.  

The 5 speed has a better starter gear setup.

There should ba a sticker on the frame neck that has year of manufacture.  My 2001 says "12/00"
