Savage Companion CD - Kudos
07/02/09 at 22:17:40
 
Greetings - got my Savage companion CD yesterday, and I just wanna give major kudos to Greg DuBois, and any and everyone else involved in putting it together. The pictures and info are spectacular.  I haven't started wrenching, yet, but it's high on my list of ambitions. I have the service manual, and having this CD now makes everything seem way more do-able.  Thanks!

It's all pics, TONS of 'em, very hi-res and great detail, and there's text comments on the pics with details, tips, and bits of collected wisdom.  Great stuff.

If you are going to live with a Savage/S40 LS650 etc etc etc, then you NEED the CD.  There is indeed a lot of great stuff in it; stuff you will not find anywhere else on the planet.  
You want detail ? ?  This has detail.  Wink

And don't be fooled by imitators, namely flightsimshop/kwikbay on ebay who is also selling a photo CD.

Thanks guys!
I have always thought the pics in the Clymer's Manual were too dark! Especially for someone new to wrenching.

And I've been interested in Greg's CD for awhile now.

I am convinced,now, to get one! Smiley

Yes,Thanks,I've seen that one on eBay,but my instinct was it wouldnt be as good.
I personally wouldnt even consider that one.

If you have a Savage, you want the cd. It will give you great pictures of all the parts on the the bike, a great heads up on how it all goes together.  This is invaluable when you are doing a 1st attempt at some repair of maintenance. It's $25 very well spent!!!

As soon as I have 25 bucks that ain't doing anything, I plan on getting the CD for myself as well.

I've been wrenchin' on bikes for 39 years now, and I've gotten lots of good use out of the Savage CD.  Every time I refer to it, it answers the question I had.

It costs less than 20 minutes of dealer labor costs.

I love it!
