Hello, New savage owner here, Athens GA

Hello I am Chuck Smith aka MetricMan.
I am new to savage, but not to the suzuki.
I have a few ?? about this project bike I just bought.
I have a 97 savage that I just bought from some real hillbillies. the bike will not run. I am in search for a wiring diagram, the has had a bunch of riging done to it. I would like to know what color wires run to the ing switch.
I have got the eng to spin over but jumping the starter with some jumper cables, But I have no fire. any help or suggestions.

My plans are to turn this bike into a cool bobber. but first I got to here it run.

You are awesome thank you.
I will update with my findings. from what I have been  reading on this forum, the 650 eng is rock solid, correct?

Depends. yea, its tough, but, it has a petcock that will loadthe oil w/ gas & a cam chain tensioner that will kill the engine dead. IDK how long it sat, but Id change the oil & filter. If it sat a long time w little fuel, Id be looking in the tank.

Dead on, I changed the oil and about two quarts of gas came out of the engine before the oil did. good call Cool

You say you jumpered the starter. Check the bike battery. The bike needs a decently charged battery to provide the initial plug spark to fire up. I'd check the plug too.
