'trix.



As in, Beatrix. Why? Well, a Savage 650 is also called a thumper, given it's a single-cylinder engine (also belt, not chain) - so it's a bit... well, thumpy.

It is going to be very interesting getting used to almost 3x the motor. Oh, I have to stay in 2nd gear? For a while? Huh. I can do highway speeds comfortably in 4th?? cacklecacklecackle!

And in the meantime, we have a fleet in the back yard:



And one more....
