Headlight and drive belt
04/14/20 at 12:59:27
 
I am currently restoring a 95' Savage for myself.  I need the drive belt and the a new Headlight as mine works but is a dingy color when off and on  from being I assume 25 years old now.

Best place to get the factory type headlight and drive belt?

Thanks

I would just clean it, the lens is glass I think.
But if the reflector is corroded it's toast.

Thanks for the heads up.  I had not taken  it apart yet as I just noticed it being dull when on.  I bet you're right.

Also how can I order your timing chain Tensioner modification?

OEM belts, New are Expensive

I have a few drive belts and I'm pretty sure that I have one headlight. Send me a PM.

I've been experimenting with LED headlights on my other bike - my bolt.
However the savage sitting right next to it begged to be part of the experiment.

So I fooled around with it.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-6-5-Inch-40W-LED-Round-Motorcycle-Projector-He...

If you drilled holes in the bottom of that and used a 1/2" rubber spacer that headlight will bolt right in shell and all.

Replaces the plastic shell with metal and gets you a nice bright LED. Make sure you aim it correctly though, I had an issue like that in my bolt but I was able to adjust the spacer length and get it sorted out - but its a 3 point mount from the rear on that bike, I still feel I could have done better on that too.

Its got those ears its supplied with - but IMHO - those look stupid. But its useful to position it and aim it before drilling the holes - but your call. The ears will be fine on a savage, the bolts forks are larger than the ears will fit.

Cool.
Srinath.
