Nice job on the V-Star, you should do amazing on the Savage.

6' 235...........Forward controls via Ed_L, convert to a chain drive(pick and choose your ratio), white spacer mod, dump the 50lb stock muffler and rejet. Oh yes, fix the seat.
I did the above. Can cruise 70-75 all day. I did more than all that but the rest was cosmetic. You know, dumping the sidecovers, repaint, clubman bars, etc.
Have fun!

Does the stock muffler really weigh 50lbs?
If so,how much do the other type mufflers weigh that you guys use?

No it doesn't, but compared to the after market mufflers we have put on, it seems as if it does. I never weighed them, but the weight difference is significant.

Reply #24 - 07/04/09 at 23:05:09 If anyone looks like a monkey on a football it's gotta be me on my new savage. I'm 6'7" 180lbs. I raised the front of the seat up a bit and that helped a lot. New 10" z bars on the way. Should fit nice.
