I have one, but don't have a donor tank to clear the forks. Also, any idea if the savage forks will fit the triple tree? I rebuilt mine and added the progressive springs, hate to give them up.

Honestly,... I installed my muffler before I discovered the rail mount shorty's... So mine is the tab mount, and although I made it work just fine with the stock mount, I eventually cut the entire rail section of the bracket off and drilled a bolt hole in the round tubing part of the bracket to secure the muff.
I have noticed that the flat, rail bar of the mount has lip along the top and bottom. Just grinding that lip off would allow a rail type muffler to angle in a bit.
It took me a while to get comfortable with hacking off the portion of the bracket to make my shorty run straight. I first had to make sure I was never going back to stock,... and secondly I had to install the Intruder shocks for vertical clearance.
Hope that's understandable and helpful to you.

Very helpful and understandable. I did get a rail mount dyna muffler, so hopefully I'll have some options. There's a $14 s40 muffler mount on ebay right now, so I figure if I cut into something and regret it later, I could always revert back to stock.

Thanks very much for chiming in here!

@Serow The bike looks great. Is that a custom seat? It kind of looks like it might be a V-Star seat.

I sure do miss Tucson and the Sonoran Desert. I lived there for about 7 years. I still hope to return one day and make it the final stop.

I miss Tucson, too. Lived there growing up, left when I joined the military. Interviewed for a job at UofA, and then the coronavirus hit.... still hoping to return there. Love your bike, Serowbot!

Serowbot's bike is a one of a kind, and I'm happy to see him posting pics in your thread. It's a unique take on the Savage platform, one I really like, too.
