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.
