GS500F roll call

[robo]

hey ollie357,

got any pics of that F with the SM type 2 bars?  My GF is thinking about joining the GSer ranks and we both agree that the only truely ugly part of the bike is the tall bars...  I'd love to get an idea of what the lower bars do for the overall look of the bike.

cheers

They have some pics of the type2 on their website.

Future mods before getting the gixxer:

will do as soon as i can temporarily "borrow"  the digital camera at my lab. I'm gonna try to do it this week.

I got the Suzuki Genuine Accessories 2004 Catalog that I ordered, and now I'm irritated. In the entire catalog, the GS500 shows up a whopping 0 times. Yep... not a single mention, not a single accessory. Heck, the bike isn't even listed on the first two inside pages where all the other Suzuki's are listed. What a joke.

That'll teach me to check things out myself before recommending them to others.  

Sorry about the disappointment.... :dunno:

Not your fault. The catalog is an interesting read, at least. And it might come in handy if I get another Suzuki before the 2005 catalog comes out. I'm irritated with Suzuki. What kind of statement is it when the manufacturer of a product doesn't even (seemingly) acknowledge that product?!  :x

04 GS500F (Yellow)
Bought in Flagstaff, AZ.  The dealer has also sold a blue one.  Yellow is better looking, IMHO.  This is the opposite of a beginner's bike for me -- working my way down in size after a Gold Wing, XV920RH, CB750 and assorted others.

if the side fairing were removed how does it look in terms of dimensions compared to the last naked (2002 gs500)?

Is the fairing easy to remove?

How many of you gsf guys ride w/o the fairing?
 
                             Thanks.

It would look exactly like a gs500. They are exactly the same just with a fairing.

The fairing is just bolted onto the frame. I'm pretty sure its easy to take off.

I ride with the fairing all the time. I paid for it, I might as well ride with it.
