We've got some competition folks...
03/21/13 at 15:32:35

From where the Savage is considered a real motorcycle instead of a toy...http://www.suzukisavage.lt/ShowCategory.php?CategoryID=1001

When it opens make sure to click on the Union Jack... In case the link comes up in a different language. It did come up in English when I tested the link though.

I think us stateside owners might just be slacking a bit...

Reply #1 - 03/21/13 at 20:51:23 That's very interesting WD, and goes to show how international the bike is. Most of the country links opened quickly with the exception of the Czech republic, it was probably running on one cylinder just like a Jawa twin in a rainstorm. Perhaps people should send photos of their bikes to their site.

Copy the link and paste it into Google's search bar. When the result comes up, you'll see a selection "Translate." After you've clicked that, select the languages you want and bam, the page is in the language you want. Google's translator is getting pretty good with grammar and sentence structure. It reads more like someone speaking broken English instead of complete gobbldegook.

But be warned, it still doesn't make up for spelling errors and there's quite a few of them on there...

I notice we have to be careful around you with our words. I noticed the opening page and dismissed it. Whether you are a believer or not the Bible says that our words reflect what is in our hearts. I learned to cuss when I was six, so it is easy for me to hurt people's feelings when I go to my "default setting" of cursing when I bump my head. I have enough respect for all of you to keep my opinions and answers conservative and respectful. I hope I have succeeded in that. I apologize if I have not. Boofer

Reply #11 - 03/22/13 at 21:14:24 It's a motorcycle site... And a whole lot cleaner than some I am/have been involved with. And any rugrats reading the forums and links over parental shoulders have heard worse at school by the end of kindergarten.

Is it an old logo that you guys used in the past?

Face I noticed that too. And I can say I do not care for the design at all....I'm not a prude,I just never liked the skull and crossbones on anything. Plus I don't think our group needs anything that resembles "colors". That does not define us as a group,as diversified as we are.

But it is good to see that we are recognized!
