I recently bought it 4 just under 2k. It has less than 6k miles. It has sine rust on pipe,dent in gas tank and scuff on turn signal. Probably not the best thing for the $ but it is what it is. Buyers remorse. Anyways I rode the bike mainly 10 miles round trip for a couple weeks with no problems. Then it began to back fire. I went on my first highway trip to go take my riding test & the bike completely shut down after a huge backfire at 55 miles per hr. Wouldn't restart or anything. Had a backyard mechanic look at it. He said it was the voltage regulator & battery. He got it to start. I rode it home. Battery died once home. I replaced the battery & now the bike won't start like it should. Got it to start 3 times snd the longest of those was 10 minutes with a ride around the block on full choke. 0 choke and the bike died & now will not start. Bike acclerated on it's own too. When I try to start it acts like it wants to run but doesn't get that last kick. Muffler gets going & everything just no start. This is my first real bike,no mechanical skills but I'm starting a tech class soon. Any help would be great. Also since Savages dont have a horsepower gauge, what speeds should I be at in different gears. I've been doing:1st up to 15,2nd up to 25-30,3rd up to 50, & 4th was 60.
