Twin plug conversion huh? You had best get a hold of a pro, like Lake Shore Harley Davidson, Merch, Performance Specialties, or another Harley hop up shop. This is a specialty service reuquiring a flowbench, major combustion chamber reshaping, twin coils with a souped up ignition control unit (not available for the Savage, from anyone, I looked), reconfigured exhaust dynamics, the list goes on. This will NOT help the Savage. The motor is not designed to be super tuned. You will just be wasting your money. If you want a more powerful bike, sell the Savage and get an Intruder 1400. Best Japanese cruiser for power, speed and still looking like a real motorcycle. If that ain't enough, buy the new Suzuki Hayabusa, 200+ mph capability out of the box, for a lot less than trying to get unrealistic performance figures from the Savage.
