It appears that the bolts in the side covers are original. If you didn't want to customize it, why bother?
I love it.

Interesting exercise. Frame work is cool. But not sure if it's practical.
And, my butt hurts just think of riding it on the road around here on the east side of PA (POT HOLE Central)

Yes I can see alot of
work went into it.
The frame shows
some creativity for
sure. As long as
you like it and your
happy with it, that
is all that matters.

Would you like some Savage to go with your tires?
Sweet ride, think you could probably crush a few cagers with tires like that!

I can garuntee that the exhaust is louder than any harley out there! I run straight pipe about 6 inches long where the factor muffler is supposed to be. I would say if the carb work and other tuning is done right it will be faster than a good portion of the cagers out there on city streets anyhow. I have no problem. I even beat a Ninja 600 with mine and she is 8.5' long and low!

Mick you would have to do a lot of hoping for that to happen.

Lots of nice work there. From RYCA kit to this, the Savage seems to be catching a lot more attention these days than just a few years ago.
