What MileAge is on your Savage?
04/11/09 at 06:48:32
This is my current speedo reading on Mr Thud (my 1986 LS650)...Get a load of this...
Apparently, it had a cam chain replacement just over 1 year ago.
I have bought a gasket and will investigate the dreaded cam adjuster status tomorrow. Sounds...'ok'.. but then I have several CB750 hondas..and may have got used to rattly cam chains..
Hey wonder if it has been round the clock before! Im the 4 owner..I think.
BTW..those are Australian Kilometers.. not quite as big as American ones
ha ha ha..
Seeya!

Subtract about 96,000 KM from your odometer and that's how many KM are on my '08
G'luck with the cam chain/tensioner inspection

61,710 miles, not bad for a '86?
Cam chain replacement last year was probably the 2nd replacement.

' 01 -- 5313.2.... and that is going to change in the next couple hrs. Weather is headed to the 50's and the bike is getting rolled outta the house and onto the road.

The other week I sold wife's '91/'94 Savage which had 86000 kms and my 1999 SV650 with 134000 kms. There are not many high mileage Savages around.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

Nope. I have a Verslavy that went to the 2nd hole at about 12,000 (guessing.. the records are here somewhere).
I haven't opened it up since then.
I have the nitrided cam chain (from the 1st buy) and a set of gaskets.
But, it hasn't made noise beyond what I think is normal, and it runs great. It's a fair guess that the tensioner is at it's limit and it's just a matter of time before it gets noisy and I'll have to go in.
Until then.. I RIDE.
