Savage redline shift points... (Read 147 times)

tizzyfit Full Member Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 158	Re: Savage redline shift points... Reply #15 - 07/01/12 at 01:48:47 It's early and I'm stupid, so bear with we. Looking at chart #1, is my thinking correct, in 1st gear, run the RPM's to 6500/36.9 mph before shifting to 2nd? I thought I read someplace to shift from 1st to 2nd @ 21-25 mph range, but the chart is telling me I'm shifting 1000 RPM's too soon.

Tizz I'm thinking those shift points would be for competition situations. Also,in another thread pertaining to this subject Sero, Versy and Oldfeller point out that the speeds and shift point will vary depending on wether the bike is stock or the amount of modifications.

Nothing is ever as simple as we would like it to be!

Reply #17 - 07/01/12 at 08:08:29 God help you if you shift every shift at redline. Besides, that's not peak power for a stock savage. Somewhere there are some dyno charts, seek and yee shall find. maybe in the 'more horses' thread.

Reply #18 - 07/01/12 at 08:37:53 If the chart was redone with a "normal" shift line to compared to the redline shift line it might be less confusing for some. I know a normal high RPM shift for me is around 5500 rpms

Reply #19 - 07/01/12 at 09:08:12 I can see that this chart is being wildly misunderstood... I'll make some changes to clarify.... ... but, for now... These are not recommended shift points,... or top speeds... They are mathematical, rpm @ speed relationship for each gear... Sorry,.. I'll do some work on it...

Here's mine:
(see below)

Max HP: 33.19
Max Torque: 36.40 ft lbs
Temp: 87 F

Setup:
55 pilot (no bleed holes)
1 washer
155 main

A stock bike seems to dyno about 28-29HP. The LS650 with Sportster muffler and 1/2 spacer ran 29.8 HP. The Supertrapp guy said peak 28 with stock muffler then his Supertrapp tested similar to my bike HP wise with 32-33 (no torque curve or numbers though) with air temperature of 22 degrees cooler than my run today. Don't know if that makes a bit of difference though.

I drilled out the plug in the center of the muffler and I could tell it raise the power band,The other thing if the stock was with stock jets,I went up 2 jets on the main jet and it made a different you could really feel.So where would completely stock be but jetted richer,I would guess 2-3 hp,and more torque too but a few rpm higher.
