Anyone here have experience fitting a DR650 rear wheel to a savage?

The entire wheel?  Its completely different.  You might as well pick any wheel from any bike.

It may be easier to use the swingarm with it if you want to go that way.

Either way it would be a complete fab job from scratch pretty much.

For rear wheel compatibility check the early ‘80’s Suzuki GS models.
I believe the rear wheel on my Savage is off an ‘82 GS450.  It’s a 16” mag wheel.  The LS650 axle & spacers work with it, as does the LS brake.  Perfect fit.

many front wheels do fit (tire size and axle), but you'll have to find a matching disc for thickness, modify the disc OD, and space it out to match the savage.

Whats your goal?

Off road ability (DR650 ish)?

Disc brake?

Different size rim?

Lots of options.
