Savage dream poll... (Read 229 times)

Reply #15 - 10/29/10 at 09:37:47 I think fuel injection would give the Savage plenty of range without going to a bigger tank. Also, 5 gears are enough. The transmission could use a shorter 1st and taller 5th, though. But the most important request I'd make is to fix the cam chain adjuster so it doesn't sproing apart in as little as 15,000 miles.

Other being...fix the freaking cam chain issue already, throw a trip meter on, preferably with a bar mount speedo and tach. Bigger tank. Better looking stock muffler. Better stock seat. Slightly taller and softer suspension front and rear. Frame extended 4-6" (but I'm 6'2" so...)

Reply #17 - 10/29/10 at 13:24:50 As long as we're dreamin'!! 1.) Fix cam chain issue 2.) Hydraulic valve lifters 3.) Bar mount speedo with trip meter 4.) Fuel Injection 5.) Cast wheels with tubless tires Now the LS650 is perfection!

Single carb V-twin ? Sopunds so much like a late model Harley to me...

Sure, Single carb V-twin sounds nice, but wouldn't that make it an Intruder ?

Now, a DR750/800 engine shoehorned into a revamped LS frame...
...maybe with efficient disc brakes all around and a 6-speed 'bow and a 4 gal tank...
...THAT would be the ideal Savage for me !!!

Cool

my S-50 is an intruder rebadged and it has a carb for each cylinder.

but it's a 2006, I wish it only had one carb or at least one air filter, or something to make it easy to work on in any way.

fuel injection would be my vote, along with a taller top gear I guess or more range in gears <--- no idea what I'm talking about, just want to shift into 4th later and 5th later
