Title: Re: How many miles on YOUR Savage? Post by HawkEye1967 on 05/16/06 at 19:30:53 1986 Model had about 18,000 kms when I bought it, it now has about 26,000 kms on it I have owned it for about 7 years, but it was parked on and off for a couple of years, once when the starter drived gear busted and took a piece of the crankcase with it and once when the cam chain adjuster went. also had to put in a heli coil and it got parked again, at this time it is doing okay, thou I am going thru the tune a new carb phase, and seems as I am not the best with the tools, not going as good as I hoped. |

Does that count? Or should I include the 6800 or so on the original odo of the 2003 Savage? In any case, I need to get off the other bike and on the Savage more... |

Lately I've been riding the savage more and the V* less. Must ride V* too... share the love. Savage Librarian wrote:

And since my daily commute is only about 6 miles round trip, I'm not going to rack up a lot of miles on my bike anytime soon. That is, until I do my IBA ride... ;D Cheers. Tammi |

Title: Re: How many miles on YOUR Savage? Post by Setral on 07/13/06 at 10:00:43 1987 (I think manu date was 8/86) Milage is less than 4k My mom bought it when my dad had his 1000cc Sportster, a few years later he sold his bike for money, she kept hers. I rode it in highschool, dropped it, shedded it. Tried working on it last year, didn't have time or money to get it running, so here we go again. (Once my truck is running again that is ??? ) |

Title: Re: How many miles on YOUR Savage? Post by Rudeboy on 07/13/06 at 15:58:02 Not sure how many owners before me, but I've owned it about a year now: 1987 Savage a little over 28000 miles It had about 25000 when I bought it. It has run perfectly since I bought it, but it developed a 'noise' last weekend after my big 4th of July ride. It sounds like the timing chain is going but I suppose I'll find out when I tear into it this weekend. Hopefully nothing serious and I'll be able to get another several thousand miles out of her. ;D |

Title: Re: How many miles on YOUR Savage? Post by Rockin_John on 01/18/07 at 09:27:34 1987 bought at the end of this last summer from the second old man who had owned it. Kind of beat up, but only 6400 miles on it. I've only put a few hundred on it since... I think the clock is at 68xx something. No commuting for me anymore. Strictly pleasure riding! ;) It has seen so little use since new, that the last old guy had to clean the fuel tank and system. A couple of weeks ago I inspected the original tires with a magnifying glass and decided they need changing due to micro weather cracks, even though they still look good at a a couple of feet away. I'm not afraid to ride it around the neighborhood easily, but it makes me shudder to think of some of the faster riding I'd done before looking at those old tires with that magnifying glass! |
