[mtlsir]

Hi gent,I'm new to the cult but i'm a long long time reader of your post, and this is time i do something to my savage, i need to see some, i really like to go that route with my suzuki "salvage"
everything un painted or dirty as fuck or unusual you had build or had le the nature do it homework!
I really hate chrome... but raw and brushed metal are prettyer

Thanks guys

Same bike, less paint (or bedliner)

[mtlsir]

Nice bike , and yes the bedliner needs to go hahaha, i hope that paint stripper can remove that stuff, i got it for cheap and i juste rode the shit of its this season.
but i keep the shock, or i will break my back and the bike (damn quebec pothole)

does your exhaust set is loud enough with baffle? and do you need to rejet?

[fastbub]

Baffle is really just a bolt and some washers. It actually sounds good. I did re-jet. It has the straight pipe and a V-stack so jetting was needed. Don't by a jet "kit" just buy the jets you need. They are only like 6 bucks or so. Eventually I ended up lengthening the exhaust with a piece of pipe from some old Harley drag pipes and this helped the mid-range flat spot I was getting.

saw one done much like this on around where I live, wish I had snap a pic

[magnus]

well, it's not a rat, but it's dirty due to an oil leak I should get around to fix..
not much done on this, license plate moved to the left, replaced that horrible chunk of tail light with a more discrete one and the air filter got replaced with a k&n filter.
pipe is some aftermarket "baffle" I got cheap. And of course the fuel petcock got replaced with a raptor, fuel filter too.
sorry for the large pics...

bike too shiny you say? on a budget you say?

grab a scotchbrite pad and get to scuffing! underneath all your chrome is a layer of nickle plating just waiting for you to free it from the midlife-crisis-curing bling up above.

Is that a 21" or 23" on the first one?
The dirtbike tire just looks good!

[japcrapp]

Sorry for the above pic ....But here it is getting home with the hardtail ....76 cb550 drum all the way around and a 21" front wheel

[mtlsir]
