Really good looking bike Armen, I have the same tank except in steel, (I  would rather have the riverside tank instead of the Mojave)

Do you have a problem with the gas cap over venting? If I park it in the shop or on hot days I can really smell gas.

Oh by the way great mirrors, mine came with some useless bar ends,  I upgrade to the emgos.

Thanks for the compliments. Had to raise the tank about 4" to look right with the seat. Gave it to a bud to cut out the bottom and weld a new floor in it. Hopefully soon.
Only prob is it's somewhere I can get to with the whole virus thing going on.
Have to work on the other toys for now.
Stay healthy guys!

Whenever I see polished aluminum bodywork I think of old fighter planes.
Where motorcycles and aviation cross paths , very cool !

Hi Armen,

The bike looks great, nice and unique!!  I was looking to see others that didn't only incorporate the ryca mods. Sr's have a lot of aftermarket support while the savage seems to be very limited.

52hp is wild on such a light bike. Must have been a fun ride!!


I have a 07 standard sportster and with the amount of aftermarket parts available it was easy to do a cafe with not much fab required. I also am currently working on an xr that is a lot of fun too but I have to pretty much make my own stuff to fit it.  I put a couple pictures below

Hey Marcus,
Both bikes look like a  ton of fun!
The SR was fast enough to win the SOS Senior class in AHRMA in '93. Good times Smiley
