New 2 Me 2002 Savage
07/17/04 at 18:47:53
 
I just bought a used 2002 650 Savage. It's black, and had only 820 miles on it. Looks like it just came off the showroom floor. Prior owner had installed a Suzuki windshield and Willie & Max saddlebags.
I paid 2,750.  New ones sell for about 4,000, so I feel I got a good deal.

It's been about 8 years since I rode a bike
I didn't really plan on buying it until I got a look at it.
These Savages just look good! Smiley
Test drive conviced me, especially since it seemed to handle both my 16 yr old son and me.
I just turned over 1,000 miles, and a check of the miles per gallon showed 58. This included a lot of empty parking lot driving by my son for practicing his starting stopping and turning.
I actually bought the bike for my son, but I'm having a blast riding until he can get his cycle permit.

I'm really happy to have found this forum. I hope to learn a lot here.
My Savage backfires a lot, but I learned here that it's perfectly normal.

Happy Trails

Welcome, Maclobo.  I agree, you're gonna need 2 Savages.  I got mine in 2003, and I paid more than you did for an older model, so good for you!  I paid $2900 for a 2001 with 4000 miles.  I have closer to 10000 miles now.  It had W & M bags, and bag supports, and a Jardine pipe.  These fellas in this forum seem to know more about this bike than in any of the other forums I've found on the web.  Greg_650 and Kropatchek seem to be the most help anytime I have a technical issue.
