Bolt on? Maybe, and I mean maybe, a VS800GL wheel turned 180 in the forks. Maybe. Can't remember the axle size on the old 800 Intruders. The Savage is a bit of an odd duck, 5/8" axle, just like the old Titan 2 stroke or Honda 250/305 CB and CL from 1961 to about 1968 or so. Most bikes in that axle size have front drums. Which, if your front brake is as lousy on your 95 as the one is on my 98... you're better off with a Titan TLS drum and a 21" hoop and spokes from Buchanan's.
Convert the rear to a 16" hoop at the same time. Much easier to find 130/90-16 rears than it is 140/80 or even 140/90 15 inchers, with a whole lot more options (brand, whitewall size, single or double pinstripe whites, etc).
A bit more outlay up front, for a whole lot more user friendly machine in the end.
