Thanks Roadstergal. My girlfriend (pictured) almost loves it more than I do... ALMOST.

Thanks for the compliments BOSS. As of right now, I just wanna cut the rear fender and MAYBE get some of that kick ass red tape that you have on your tires. That is an AWESOME modification.

I MIGHT look into getting a Wileyco Exhaust setup, we'll see. This bike was mainly just to learn to ride on and help prepare me for my next bike. I'm falling in love with it VERY quickly though (well, I'm already in love with it, but...), so I dunno, we'll see what happens.

jakkyl, thanks for the comment. I meticulously wipe her down EVERY day, so we'll see how long I can keep it this clean.

Thanks yeah i really like the tape it really makes the wheels stand out more. a wileyco sounds nice but i like my yoshi better :mrgreen: i just bought the bike to ride too, but i am thinkin' of keepin' it and buying another bigger bike later as a add on to my GS

Well, when I first bought mine I had the same intentions. However, having crashed it (only cosmetic) not 15 minutes after buying it, I threw that out the window... :dunno:

lol no it's at my store those are just extra carts my parents used to sell general merchandise but now we sell jewelry but we just never got rid of the carts. thats that yeah it's odd but the only place that has constant shade and right next to the door so i can keep an eye on it.

pandy · October 25, 2005, 07:33:41 AM

That's my kinda jewelry store: one with shopping carts!!!!!!!

:mrgreen:

Congrats on the new bike! I have the yellow 04F. I really like it, but I do wish mine was blue.

Roadstergal · October 25, 2005, 01:35:53 PM

Picking mine up today was like meeting an old friend again. The 500F is definitely my favorite of all of the bikes I've had. I don't know why. It just feels right. Better than the E, better than the Gixxer.

pandy · October 25, 2005, 02:48:03 PM

RG: So now what are you going to do with your '91? Just toss it aside like yesterday's news!?

Po' lil bike!!!

stampy · October 25, 2005, 02:52:53 PM

Just thought I would drop in on here as well. I've made a couple posts here the past couple days.

I am also new on motorcycles and got a blue '05. No pics yet but soon.....

I am remembering more and more just how clumsy I am. Was out on the first day trying to figure out the clutch and turning and all that jazz and dumped it right away....Going only about 15mph but fast enough to scratch the side up and crack a turn signal. Then again this past weekend I parked the bike and it was at an odd angle or something and it spilled and both rearview mirrors broke off!

I'm a cursed man...but I am working on it and trying to ride as much as I can to get as much time on it so I know what the heck I am doing!!

MPA · October 25, 2005, 03:03:05 PM

congrats to all of you guys w/ 05s - I'm jealous as I don't have a GS500 yet

I'll probably get an E though

Street - you on any of the St Louis boards (car or bike)?

My plan was always to fix it up some and sell it - and Aaron still seems to want it.

jen_ · October 25, 2005, 03:24:08 PM

I just want to say nice job on the rimstripes guys.

They are a bit@h to put on. Mine look like they were put on by a drunken blind man...and I usually have a good eye for making things straight.

can you post pics of yours please i would like to see yours too

MPA · October 25, 2005, 06:17:11 PM

I love the black frame. I wonder how much of a pain it is to strip everything and paint the frame on an older bike.

BOSS - your bike looks sweet. I'd love for my bike to look just like that but w/ the regular E headlight and some Srinath bars
