New to the forum and the savage
05/22/13 at 11:05:05
I am picking up a 87 savage 650 tomorrow and am very excited about it. I have read a ton of great things about these bikes. It will need a little TLC but it is a real gem. Just thought I would introduce myself.

Welcome!! There is a ton on info on the forum. Make sure you read the tech threads for new owners about oil, petcock and , especially in your case, cam-chain tensioner. Have a great day!!

Thanks for the welcome. I have been browsing the sight for the past 3 days, was just waiting on approval. I already have a petcock on its way and I will be ordering the cam chain tensioner in the next few days.

The Verslagen tensioner....right? A new factory tensioner will not correct anything.

Sea Foam? Gar Bahge? Eaux Neaux! Let us not listen to those fringe elements,,
I did doubt, but, when added to my backhoe fuel the scary sounding knock went away. It was an injector p[roblem. I had them overhauled & no longer need it, but Ive used it in many things & SEEN improvement that other injector cleaners/gas treatments did not do.
