New lady rider in Toronto, ON!

barkingsquirrel · August 29, 2014, 08:37:49 PM

Heya

After years and years of talking about getting a motorcycle licence, I finally got one in April of this year!
I ride a black 1993 Suzuki GS500e... The only one I've seen around my area yet. But so excited to be on a forum for only GS bikes. I'm surrounded by Kawis in the group of riders I know.

I have quite a few biker friends, and am always looking for more people to ride/hang out with! See you guys around.

Welcome to ze nuthaus. Pics of the bike? A new member here named iceman86 appears to be from the same area

He has little to no mods, and was sitting on a farm for years before he came to me. He needs some TLC, but for the neglect, he's in fantastic shape.

welcome... I have a GS500F (fairings), I'm in Oshawa/Courtice and I've actually seen a few F's around and a couple of GS500E's including a girl rider.

I just started riding so I haven't made it as far as Toronto yet, but I'm in the Durham region area constantly.

I must agree, appears to be in great shape

Welcome to the group! ( Now what was " someone" saying about women not hanging around this schoolyard too long ?)

Sweet!! Is that extra ribbing I see on the seat...? I haven't seen many GS's around my area either... makes ya feel like your GS is unique

Welcome to the forum!!

I guess this is why I need to view pics on my tablet and not my phone. I didn't notice the custom seat until I enlarged the pic. Thanks for that catch showbiz.
