Hello All From Kansas!

[AuNatural]

I have been watching the board for some time as I was waiting to be approved for registration. Recently bought an 04 GS500F for the wife. She took the MSF course this year and started on an Eliminator 125, moved up to a Rebel, and the GS was a preemptive buy for when the Honda is outgrown. The GS has a total of 1600 miles on it at the moment and has been converted (by me) to E status. I am enjoying it quite a bit and ride it instead of the Daytona when we go out together. No stranger to aircooled Suzukis either. My first "real" road bike was a GS550ES and have owned many Suzuki's over the years.

Where in Kansas are you?

[AuNatural]

Topeka, are you in Lawrence by chance?

[smaeda]

I'm from Lawrence!

[AuNatural]

Ya, I thought so. I saw a pic of your bike on here somewhere. I believe that at one point you contacted me about a possible trade for an SV1000 that i had converted to a naked bike.

[smaeda]

haha yea thats right! But didn't you sell that bike?

[AuNatural]

Yes, it's long gone. Ended up buying the wife an 04.

[Iroquois]

We will all have to meet up in Lawrence sometime and hit the roads around there.

[AuNatural]

Sounds good. We try to make it to Lawrence at least once a week.

[smaeda]

that sounds nice. I know some nice twisty back roads there.
