[Water Warrior 2]

The Savage/S-40 was never designed to be fast or really performance minded when comparing it to many other bikes. Where this bike shines is in it's simplicity and reliability. It's highway sweet spot is probably a wee bit faster than the GZ but has the added torque for long uphill grades and headwinds. They are a very popular first bike and there are many Ladies riding them due to the relative light weight and ease of operation. Folks with a short inseam love this bike.
There is only one factory wart from Suzuki engineering. The cam chain tensioner is short lived but can be replaced with an aftermarket item of better quality. Now if they would just add FI.
