wanted - suzuki savage

I am interested in a suzuki savage s40. Anyone got one? Any year. Condition is not all that important as long as it runs.

thanks all.

Yeah. They are normally cheap learner bikes. Some people are asking too much. Just have to wait till the right one comes along.

Re: wanted - suzuki savage

Are you planning a Ryca build???

http://www.rycamotors.com/

I'm seriously considering one for this coming winter - within my mechanical skills (no welding), would be fun wrenching with my 13 y.o. daughter.

Re: wanted - suzuki savage

They are dead simple, and powerful enough to get up on the freeway and ride. The seat, for me, was absolutely terrible. But that can be said about many seats. Hope you find the one you want. I have some regular (non-sissy bar) fender rails for one if you need them.

Re: wanted - suzuki savage

Dieselndixie, mind shooting me a PM with what kind of price range are you looking for? My wife may be wanting to sell hers, I'll talk to her about it again this weekend and see if she wants to get serious about riding it again.

Re: wanted - suzuki savage

I saw one a few weeks ago at the House of Kawasaki in Oklahoma City for $1,900, not sure what year. I have been looking at them but my wife isn't quite ready to make the jump yet.

Ryca is my goal. So I'm hunting for a fairly cheap savage.

Call G&A Computer repair in Waco,TX. Ask for Steve. He has a nice low mileage one he is trying to get sell. He took it in on trade and wants to sell it.

Re: wanted - suzuki savage

I would love to try a savage but not buy one. Same for the sr500. Delightfully uncomplicated.
