I've just purchased an 87 Suzuki Savage. This winter I plan to make a few adjustments and modifications. Any advice and recommendations are greatly appreciated.
The bike is mostly stock, besides the paint job. The sissy bar is also missing
.
I've only ridden the bike once, and it is currently in a heated basement. I should be able to work on it there. I should mention I'm 6'0'' and 185lbs, so I plan on adding forward controls and new handlebars.
I've started a list of modifications to make, please share your Suzuki Wisdom with me, I'll appreciate any help I can get with this project.
Performance
1. Verslavy Cam Chain Adjuster
2. Idle Mixture Plug Mod
3. Starter Gear Upgrade
4. Harley Muffler
5. Lancer Jet Set
Appearance / Comfort
1.Ed L's 4" Forward Controls
2.New Handlebars (Z Bar, Drag Bars?)
3.Saddlebags
4.Sissy Bar
Progress on my build will depend on funding. I plan on changing the oil so I thought the cam chain adjuster would be a place to start. My goals for this spring are reliability, comfort, and performance. I'll worry about asthetics later
