Overview

Suzuki LS 650P Savage

Owners' Reviews: Owner 1: This size of bike is really meant to be driven around town and not on extended highway trips. The drawbacks are the overall weight of the bike and maintenance issues. In cold weather or heavy rain, I would have a hard time starting it up. The bike stalled on me in traffic in a heavy rain.

Owner 2:Great bike. Handles good, real good for curve roads. Light bike, looks good. I've done some modifications and put some half running boards on the front pegs. Put a windshield on it and show light and fog lights. It's a good running bike. It does backfire at times, but I have heard that is normal for the Savage 650. It is not the most comfortable ride; got to stop more often, but it handles real well. I like the bike; it's good for just me, and to tool around the back roads. I plan to keep the bike, but will get a bigger bike for the wife and me to travel on now if I can talk the wife into it. Overall the Savage is a great bike. Not the fastest, but a good bike. Owner 3: I love the styling and the color (orange). Very comfortable as the seat is low. Good bike for all around casual riding. Best on the two lane roads. Easy to clean and maintain. I do all my own servicing.
