Project for my buddy Little Mikey. He scored a deal on this very clean example of an 88 Suzuki Savage 650. It was in a 9 out of 10 condition. He rode it around for a few days and then we got the motivation to chop it up. Brat inspired styling cues and a $0 budget for mods. Rear was lowered 2 inches by moving the lower shock mounts, rear fender from a CB400T that was leftover from his Cafe project, I welded up some funky narrow T bars from an old Drag bar that was floating around. Quick tune up and a couple hours reading through www.SuzukiSavage.com for some no cost tuning mods got it running right. Great little bike to bomb around town on. Makes me want one for myself, lol. Still a work in progress. Updates to come.
