I would like to mod my gs500 aesthetically. I primarily use the bike to commute.

What are some mods I can look into to make the gs500f more "mean" looking? Is there a seat cowl?

Your opinions/suggestions is greatly appreciated

you should put clip ons on that sucker. Definitely more mean. I honestly think the gs500F is one of the worst looking fared bikes out there. There is some company in brazil apparently that sells a very sexy set of farings, but it costs like $1000, seamax has them, search his name and you'll find the pics of his build. Nicest looking gs500 out there, I would argue.

Otherwise you should convert it to a naked gs500, round headlight, 89 factory clip ons, s4r monster windscreen, belly pan, fenderectomy obviously, chain that matches the color of the tank (ooo lala), color coordinated stainless steel brake lines and clutch and brake levers (very eye catching), paint the tail plastics flat black, rim stripes (and you can accent other parts of the bike with the leftover tap. On second thought do none of that. I want to have the 2nd sexiest gs500.
