With your machining skills, you could spin those hubs to clean up the casting marks and other roughness. I had to settle for some grinder work and a lot of hand sanding.


thats a good point. im hoping the sandblasting and powder coating fills in these marks enough that the hubs smooth out a bit.

Yeah, but you could get rid of the two longitudinal ridges and the casting info in the center of the front hub and clean up the grooves in the center of the rear hub.

the mailman was good to me today. he brought me a denso iridium powered spark plug that i bought from amazon.com. the upgrade was easy as turning a bolt since the tank is removed. i may consider the spark "door" mod in the future. http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=tech;action=display;num=1124016763

heres more info on iridium spark plugs: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=RubberSideDown;action=display;n...

types of compatible spark plugs: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?board=tech;action=display;num=1107534689




old plug vs. new: old plug looks good a little rich but even wear.

the mailman also brought me bar end led indicators. i did a mock fitting to see if any modifications were needed to fit them in the clip-ons supplied with the cs-1 kit. thankfully none are needed. they fit well and will do the trick.








the bar end indicators will replace the fork mounted indicators i was using while the bike was a bobber. im still waiting for the bar end mirror clamp adapters that allow one to run mirrors and led indicators simultaneously. it looks like everything will be compatible!

Mine are like this:



I'm trying to figure out what to do in the back in case the state doesn't like the combination of those and Ryca's integrated taillight-signals.

 Yes, left it factory gap. Not sure that's right or not, but I don't have a gap tool.

Wow, those look like they could take out a few mirrors and not even blink.   Grin
