Im new, and so is my ride!
01/18/09 at 15:29:42

Hey guys, as you can tell from the username, my name is Nick. I'm 23 years old currently enlisted in the Navy performing my duties over in Guantanamo Bay! I have been riding motorcycles for a couple years, learning first on a R6, then falling in love with it.

I am very excited to see that there is a forum centered around my new bike, which is a 2002 Suzuki LS650 Savage.

You can view some crappy pics of the bike: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=206564&l=c6dd6&id=568205082!

We are an interesting bunch...really interesting. Some of us ride heavily modded bikes...others prefer to keep 'em stock. One thing is for sure...we all love our "Savages"

Sounds like you will be back in the US soon since it seems like Obama is closing Gitmo. That should mean more time to ride!!!!

Ride safe, friend!

Welcome Nick. Thanks so much for your service to our country. Your savage looks just like mine except mine is an '04. Enjoy it and ride safe. I do have to say there is not a whole lot of information or parts for our savages and what there is, is hard to find. This site is the best. There are alot of people on here that know alot about this bike. If you ever need anything just come here and ask your question and I am sure you will have an answer in a short period of time. Again thanks for defending my freedom.
