That is definitely not a Savage attitude!.... Our bikes may lack in top speed compared to others, but not in throttle response and acceleration. Something is definitely out of wack...
Sorry I can't remember the specifics of your bike but you say you just got it running. Most likely a fuel problem. Bikes that sit too long get varnish in the gas. Is the tank, petc0ck, carb passages and jets clean? I save old guitar strings to run through carb fuel passages and jets,...very effective along with cleaner fluid. Also check for gas in the vac line (should be none). Check air cleaner. Spark plug. Valve adjustment. A Savage should pull like a Harley off the line,..a least!... Good luck,..stick with it,..you'll get it, and it will be worth it.
Forgot one...check the slide in the top of the carb...very important to good acceleration...
