Suggested designations for the S40/Savage by style
03/29/09 at 07:50:59
 
My buddy over on another forum suggested that we come up with initials after our bike model like other Suzukis because many of our bikes are not stock and requires us to explain in length or show pics to convey our bike's style. He recognized that this site is the authority on the S40/Savage and that if this site established the designations they would certainly become universal over time.  Seems like a cool idea although I'd probably get lazy and forget to add it out of habit.  Anyhow, I thought I'd share his idea and let you all support it or shoot it down.

S40    Savage     (stock)
S40B  Savage-B  (Bobber)
S40T  Savage-T  (Touring)
S40C  Savage-C (Custom)
S40R  Savage-R  (Rat Bike)

As funny as it is, it really isn't the worst idea I have ever herd.

Based upon the pictures of the bikes that I have seen on this site, I would add:

S40CA  Savage-CA (Cafe)
S40CH  Savage-CH (Chopper)

Don't forget all the wee baggers out there, or is that what you meant by the touring designation?

S40BA = Bagger
S40BO = Bobber

Or are those too close?

Ha ha.  I knew his idea would get all hosed up!

So does that means I've got a LS650 C BA R Quasi-BO Semi-T?

I tell everyone I have a LS650 RAT Savage.... " excuse me.... what?" is the usual response!

I guess I'll officially start it. I've got an '06 LS650 C.

I figure the designations are:
LS650    (stock)

LS650 C (Custom- includes any changes of exhaust, bars, seat, paint, bags, pod filter, etc., the usual mods)

LS650 B (Bobber- Custom + solo seat + rear fender mod)

LS650 T (Custom + bags + shield)

LS650 R (Rat Bike- Bobber + looks ugly and cool at the same time)

LS650 CH (Chopper)

Post suggestions for better definitions.
