Life is busy. Id rather enjoy my rides when I have time than worry about filming and editing. I do want to make more videos but I have more important things in life to focus on right now. Plus, cameras are not cheap! If you want to see more of the bike, hit up my instagram @backroadbozo and scroll down a bit. Theres a bunch of info in my posts about what I did to it!
Whelli mit einer Savage😮 Ok, ich glaube jetzt bin ich überzeugt, auch eine Savage kommt in Frage. Der Sound hat mich eh schon überzeugt, die geringe Leistung lies mich aber zweifeln. Aber das hier sieht dann doch nach verdammt viel Fahrspass aus! 🥰😘
wicked bike and video! I just got one of these! a few questions if you dont mind.... 1) are those the factory risers that come standard on this bike? 2) i just replace my factory can with a $50 dollar ebay slip on and it sounds loud and basey which i love but, it crackles and pops really bad when i let off the throttle. i have a stock air cleaner and stock jets. do I or should I jet this with the stock style air cleaner and a pretty much straight through pipe with minimal baffling? love your bike and riding style bud!
Crackle and pop on the over run its running lean. In DR form these carbs run lean so we can assume these do too. I personally would go open K+N style filter(pod) and then find out what size the stage 2 Dyno jet main is for this bike and just buy the main then look at what the DR fellas do to enrich throughout most of which is inexpensive probably $30-$50 max. This should see you close to 40bhp without much being spent,on such a light bike that will feel like you're on a much bigger bike` There's loads of tuning tips on yt on the subject of these carbs! If you want anymore the OP was going DR high comp piston and high lift cam,this will move the power and torque further up the rpm range,this is a cruiser not a crosser! Personally if I went any route I'd go big bore and piston with a little porting in the head keep the std cam upping the carb along the way or even change to an fcr41 pumper. That would get you to the same 50 bhp or more but keep all the character of the original but with 50% more power would turn the little light weight into a rocket ship,in turn keeping the cruiser feel. The DR BIG came in 750cc and 800cc, a barrel and piston from one of these and a bit of head porting and you have a torque monster.
Where did you get the shorter risers or bar mounts? I have a 2012 and it has the longer ones and I want to put aftermarket bars on it but I need the shorter risers. Any ideas?
Try searching for kawasaki vulcan 800 risers I believe. Its been so long but I’m pretty sure thats what I searched on ebay and they work great. They are basically spacers that come with longer bolts.
@@user-em3hw8lo9q hell yeah man! Enjoy it! Mine was very reliable and a blast to ride and learn on. Be safe out there! People are trash drivers and animals love motorcycles
In this video, just a pod filter and exhaust tip. Today, its got a wiseco 94mm hi comp 10.5:1 piston, webcams stage 3 cam, barnett clutch, mikuni vm36 carb, ported and polished head, newer style rocker arms, new valves, made a new exhaust, 1.6” ID and a reverse cone muffler, E3 plug… i think thats it for the engine
Someone else asked this and I told them what would be best to keep the chopper rather than crosser feel. I see you've dropped the carb size. This is all you can do to retain some torque,but kind of backwards in going forward If you had got the standard 9.5:1 comp instead of 10.5:1 And a stage 1 cam you could have kept the 40mm carb and retained the torque and top end. Probably 1-2 bhp difference in my suggested set up but would feel like vtwin torque and would be a lot less revy. That's assuming you still have it. Hope those bars are CroMo. Love this little bike been thinking of an xv535 but this may suit my needs better and sounds thumpier lighter too for street work!👍🏻
I still watch this every once in a while too haha. I still need to finish this bike. I built the engine and suspension after this video and blew the piston out the front of that engine. Rebuilt the engine again and just kept having dumb little issues so I just bought a Harley and been riding that. If you have instagram and are interested in seeing all the phases and build progresses of the savage, you can see it there. Same name there as on here. Thanks for watching dude! Glad you enjoy it🤘🏼
With this bar/riser set up, i would recommend going atleast 1-2 inch longer cables. The stock ones do work but at full locked turn it will pull the clutch or throttle ever so slightly. This can be corrected by adding more free play to the cables but you’ll have a slightly sloppy feeling clutch or throttle. Best bet is get longer cables from barnett or motion pro but can be done with stock lengths.
Hi. Great trip. I want to build a bobber, i am interested in the handlebars in your bike, can you please specify where did you buy it or send more pictures of the bike?
Cool Ride man!Cool Sound! Bud the handelbar Iss to big For This Bike..Put a small Dragbar on it.Its perfekt to Ride. I have my ls650 since 14years.And ist a cool maschiene.i Ride in Germany.have you hot the Problemficker vor the Timechain in your Motor?
Nah the bmx bars are there to stay on mine haha and i don’t have the timing chain fix yet. I just put a chain from a kz440 in and its been fine so far. I’ve done a lot to this bike since this video. If you have instagram, check my page out there @backroadbozo. I keep that more updated than here
Man your Savage sound smooth not like mine 😂 mine is miss firing a lot. What can I do to help the miss firing I like how yours sounds what muffler do you have ? Thanks much
If its miss firing check your spark plug and maybe give the carb a cleaning. Make sure you run good gas too. I run an E3 spark plug and that seems to do good but any other ones will be fine with the proper gap. As for the muffler, it was just a slash cut exhaust tip with a sort of lollipop baffle I made. It really didn’t do much but make it loud and it made some snap crackle pops all the time lol I’ve since then made a new bigger inner diameter exhaust and got a legitimate muffler that sounds good and it does backfire anymore. I’m going make an update video eventually just to show everyone the bike in more detail
I'll eventually get around to doing one. I rebuilt the engine over winter and within 250 miles it shot the rod through the case. It was my fault for trusting a used crank off eBay. I'm currently almost done rebuilding the new engine so hopefully this one will stay together for a while haha then I'll do a walk around. If you have instagram you can see what it looks like now. My insta is @backroadbozo
@@Ottomojo Its just the raw steel tank. I used aircraft paint remover and a sander to get all the paint off and then treated it with some clear coat enamel
The connecting rod bit the dust on the new engine build and sent it and the counter balancer right through the front of the cases. I’m working on the rebuild but no idea when it will be done
The bars are Burly Brand. I think the rise is 6.5” and then I have 2” risers from a kawasaki vulcan. If you run this same setup on a Savage or S40 i would recommend getting like an inch or two longer throttle and clutch cables.
@@goggles5460 they don’t require any risers if you don’t want to run any. I just wanted more rise to my bars so thats why I went with the 2 inch. You’d be better off with less rise in the risers for the sake of cable length.
