2004. I considered getting a Savage. Went to the dealer to get a new one and he said too much vibration, leaked oil, people keep selling them back, and we don't have any. (ah? if they took them back, where are the bikes?) How about an overweight twin?
Walked. Found a used 2000 instead.
Vibration? HA!! It's a THUMPER!! It's suppose vibrate. Unfortunately, Suzuki did too good on the balancer. The Savage has less vibration than I expected, and less than I actually wanted. Hey, you can't win them all. Took the Savage L.A. to OKC, 1080 miles the first two days on the Interstate, mostly about 70 mph, very comfortable.
If you want vibration, try a 404cc
