My last bike was a harley 250 about 30 years ago. I picked up a nice 2001 savage with 2000 miles on it this past spring from cragslist. It should have been advertised as "bankruptcy starter kit" Grin

This summer, I have put about 3000 miles on it, with the help of this forum.

This winter, I will definitely have to do the oil plug, as it's certainly oily mess around the exhaust header and down both sides of the head. I carry a water bottle for me, and an oil bottle for her.

Thanks for all the contributors on this forum. Amazing group here.

Hello all,

Been riding bikes for about 6 years now, mostly Harley's with a Ducati and Triumph thrown in. Been wanting to do the Ryca bobber bike for a few years now and finally got around to buying a Savage. It's an '03 with about 10k miles on it. Started tearing it down yesterday. Looking forward to the wealth of knowledge on this forum!

-Chris

Hello, new here from the top of Maine. Not new to bikes, however I did just pick up my first Savage.It a 01, 18k miles that the owner was "customizing". Had full intentions when I bought the bike of doing a Voodoo hardtail, however after getting the bike running and trying it out I am undecided on the road to take with it

Hello everyone my name is Shelly and I just bought a 2000 Savage this past weekend. Loving it. Been reading this forum for a few weeks. Looking at changing the exhaust. Looks like I have found a great place for information on this bike. I have been riding a Honda Rebel 250 for five years. So I know nothing about the Savage yet. These posts are helping. Attaching a pic I took yesterday, it is a beautiful bike, just need to make it mine. The bike has been sitting for a while, only 16,000 miles. I live in Red Lion, PA.
