In a way inspired by the Captain America in Easy Rider, the 2000 MY LS650 Savage is a middleweight chopper with tons of attitude, even though the bike is powered by a single-cylinder engine instead of a v-twin. On an aesthetic side, the LS650 Savage retains many of the styling cues of the Marauder, with the skinny front wheel and ample fuel tank, pull-back bars and a laid back riding position. Still, this bike is non-intimidating and can be a great choice for newer riders. At the same time, its moderate weight and power make it a great, economical commuting solution, and the perfect alternative to your car in the warm season.

If a small-middleweight chopper is your thing, but you'd rather you stayed on the moderate side of things, the 2001 MY LS650 Savage might just do, The bike packs an amazing style, with an all-out authentic chopper design, a skinny front wheel, laced rims, mini ape-hanger bars, a peanut tank and a miniature passenger backrest. The Suzuki LS650 Savage is powered by a SOHC 652cc single with a 5-speed transmission and belt final drive. It doesn't produce the classic v-twin rumble, but a thumper has its own character that's equally fun.

The Savage is powered by a simple, low-maintenance 652cc air-cooled  single which can produce as much as 30 horsepower and north of 45 Nm of torque to get you going and smiling. Add in a skinny front wheel, wire spokes, a raked-out fork with tall bars, a peanut tank and the shorty exhaust, plus comfy room for two-up riding. For daily commuting, weekend outings and even longer trips, this is one truly awesome affordable solution.

The 2003 MY LS650 Savage is a great way to prove that classic-looks choppers can be born even in the thumper world. This machine arrives with wire spoked wheels, a skinny front tire, and a teardrop tank with flush-mounted instruments, showing way more character than anyone would expect from a 652cc single-powered bike.
 
Lightweight and very agile, the LS650 Savage is a great commuter and a wonderful economical machine for weekend getaways. Suzuki also has a dedicated line of accessories for it including visors, fork and saddle bags and more.

For the 2004 model year of the LS650 Savage, Suzuki planned updated mirrors which are now quite similar to those of the Volusia, emergency lights, a high-beam passing switch and multi-reflector turn signals. On the tech side, the LS650 Savage retains the American chopper styling with a raked fork and a skinny front wheel.


==2003==
However the Savage is a bike in a class of its own, since it is powered by an air-cooled thumper engine which has a particular vibe and tonal character, and which is by all means, a matter of love or hate.

The front wheel is skinny and harks back to the classic choppers of old, while the raked-out fork, the classic headlight and the teardrop tank are stressing out the retro vibe so many riders simply love. Compact, yet low and comfy, the Boulevard S40 is ready to provide huge fun.

Of course, a thumper chopper is a rather peculiar sight, but once you're in the saddle, things will look differently. Affordable and easy to maintain and run, the Boulevard S40 is a great choice for entry-point riders and even for more seasoned guys who like middleweight machines.

In a way inspired by the Captain America in Easy Rider, the 2000 MY LS650 Savage is a middleweight chopper with tons of attitude, even though the bike is powered by a single-cylinder engine instead of a v-twin. On an aesthetic side, the LS650 Savage retains many of the styling cues of the Marauder, with the skinny front wheel and ample fuel tank, pull-back bars and a laid back riding position. Still, this bike is non-intimidating and can be a great choice for newer riders. At the same time, its moderate weight and power make it a great, economical commuting solution, and the perfect alternative to your car in the warm season.

The 2003 MY LS650 Savage is a great way to prove that classic-looks choppers can be born even in the thumper world.

For the 2004 model year of the LS650 Savage, Suzuki planned updated mirrors which are now quite similar to those of the Volusia, emergency lights, a high-beam passing switch and multi-reflector turn signals. On the tech side, the LS650 Savage retains the American chopper styling with a raked fork and a skinny front wheel.
However the Savage is a bike in a class of its own, since it is powered by an air-cooled thumper engine which has a particular vibe and tonal character, and which is by all means, a matter of love or hate.
