Mogman , You have a very interesting build happening.  I had plans to adjust rake angle , still wish I had done it. But she handles fine as is. I’ve never had cafe bars on this bike , a 33-34” wide flat track bars. Gets a bit weird approaching 90 and I think it would be more aerodynamic & stable without the wide bars. I had mirrors on it that made it way worse , those mirrors got tossed. Never knew they made a 400cc Savage , just that 400cc standard that was sold only in Japan. Slap a retouched 650 in that old girl when you finish her.

The 400cc Savage has a smaller piston diameter - but the same stroke.  Unfortunately they also reduced the piston pin diameter - so you also have to put in a crank to allow you to install a larger piston/cylinder (unless you can also split the crank and install a rod).  The 400cc bike also does not have a compression release.

Oooh another cafe , Dave ! I like all the builds here but really like the cafe builds second only to the street tracker builds. Not much difference but the bars & seat. I am fond of both.
