Hi there all.

Is this a yam lump?

Casings look quite Yamahaish but I'm only guessing... couldn't name models fro that pic!

Looks like a Suzuki Savage LS650 to me. The cover cut away so the exaust pipe can sit flush is what really gives its origins away...

Savage side on here: http://images.motoconcess.com/ViewImage.aspx?id=113149&w=300

More likely to be a DR600 or DR650 me thinks! Welding on swingarm looks "Interesting!"

Back to stripping "The Minx"!

Definately a Savage engine, the DR engines have the oil filter where that pipe site close to the engine and the clutch casing on the DR is very round and would not be able to be modded to be cut out that shape, definately a Savage!
