Another thing, thieves know they can outrun cops on a sport bike. On an S40, the cops can finish their coffee and doughnuts before they even begin the chase.

And if they lose sight of the "perp".....all they have to do is listen for the "pops" and "bangs" between shifts or at shutdown.

At the risk of causing much offence to the forum, could it be that thieves don't consider the S40/Savage "cool"?

I think Ray Stevens says it best:

I don't know why that came into my head, but I suppose I'll have to drive my wife nuts with all my old Ray Stevens tapes now.....

Well, that explains it. I inadvertently left my garage door open one night not long ago, the key was in the S40 parked just inside. Next morning, wife shouts "You screwed up and left the garage door open all night!". I KNEW the bike was gone. Nope. Still there, keys, tool bag, full tank and ready to go, in plain sight from the street. Funny, because our neighbor lady's daughter had a $2000 Specialized Tri-Bike. She was mowing grass in back one afternoon, left the garage open, and BINGO - bike disappeared! I guess we thumpers just don't rate.
