Posts: 30	Savage Accessories 02/11/11 at 10:11:56 For a bike that has been around for so long in one form or another there doesn't seems to be many accessories to individualize it. Any places I should try on the interwebz that you avid members recommend.

If think you would like something, someone will tell you how to do/make it.

Actually if you want accessories for your savage lots of harley stuff will work. I dunno if harley davidson makes more money off the bikes or the accessories. Its a pretty good business.

The Harley dealer in Flagstaff for many years went through a very bad period during the 70s. A lot of people don't remember that Harley was only a couple of hours from bankruptcy when the execs made a deal to buy the company. Anyway, business was almost non-existent for Chuck during this period. He often told me that the only way that he made it was off of the t-shirts. His shop was on I-40, and the truckers used to pull over into the dirt, hop the fence, and buy $200 in t-shirts at a time from him-gifts for friends and relatives on the east coast.

The result is more unique. Since this is my first foray into the cruiser world, I shake my head at how much more things cost, thanks to the Harley influence.

I have a gym bag, long enough to fit right up behind me & still stick off to above the tail light. It has a piece of 1/8th ply sewn to the bottom, & another glued in it, with D rings attached to the bag so It ties down. Youd be amazed at all the stuff thatll fit in there & still have room for beer.

Ohh, its maybe not so pretty, but, I dont need to believe the rest of the world is swooning at the sight of my bike to be a gigglin fool while Im riding.

If mg66 stands for Morris Garage 1966 MGB, you should be good at finding things to use for something else. My bike came with OE Suzuki saddle bags that I took off. I bought a direct fit (15 Min) crash bar/case guard for $90. Some don't like it 'cause it's only 1" stock. I have the small Slipstreamer Spitfire windshield like babyhog's photos show. By all means upgrade to the brighter Sylvania headlight bulb, about $6.50 at Wal Mart. Lots of folks use the Raptor petcock for more reliable fuel delivery and HD mufflers to get burned fuel out the back. One of the best things I bought for my Savage is the $5 cargo stretchable net with hooks on it. Accessories are limited only by your imagination. Have fun and suit yourself. Beauty is in the eye of the guy holding the paint can. Wink
