Hey guys, bought an 86 Suzuki Savage with >5000 miles from a buddy, problem is even though I am pretty comfortable as a shade tree mechanic with cars, I've never worked on a bike and I am missing some parts from the bottom casing. I hooked a battery up just to see what would work and all the lights, signals, horn, and even starter are in great working order.
That being said I can physically see the starter turn because there is no casing on it, it sat for 7+ years and I don't know what could of rotted, and being new to bikes I don't know what parts I even need to order for this, also a lot of the bike is already disassembled, I know there is hardware missing.
I'd love some opinions on replace/ refurbish with parts (keeping cost in minds), first maintenance things I should do (I already know about the rotella <3), if anyone has an engine for sale, or if anyone with experience lives near Charlotte NC and wouldn't mind showing me the ropes of Savage ownership.
Thanks again, pics below.
