Sold the GS500F for $6000 CAD 1000 less than I paid and bought a 2005 gsxr600 with 108km's on it for $9700. Picking it up on the weekend I'll take a bunch of pics I hope I'm still welcome here. :( And to my baby gs, I'll miss you alot.

$9700???????!!!!!!!

Oh wait, that's Canadian "money"! :lol:

And of course you're still welcome here. It's sad you had to sell the GS, though.

Well i am not the authority but being that there are a lot of people here not actually owning a GS anymore I am sure that your 2 cents are sitll welcome.  Enjoy the new bike and be safe, esp till you get a handle on the power difference.

Atleast its still a Suzuki, and I bet a lot of people on here are thinking about a gixxer as their next bike so I'd say you're a more valuable asset than ever  :mrgreen:

Take your time to get to know your new bike.  There's a lot of difference between power deliveries.  Less room for mistakes.

Ride safe, and enjoy the ride...

Hell I just want a Katana or SV.  No one around here wants a GS, that is why there are still leftover 04's at two of the local shops.

For everyone making fun of Canadian Money, $9700 CAD is about $8100 USD these days.  They're closing the gap (or we are).
