I have a question about rejetting and progressive springs for a 2004 GS 500F

REJETTING: Is the rejetting for a 2004 any different than a 2001? I noticed Dynoget has a different kit and part numbers for a 2004 vs a 2001

PROGRESSIVES: are all gs the same? I havent found any listed for a 2004 GS500 yet

Any help you you guys could give me would be appreciated.

I don't think anybody has had much sucess with the Dynojet kit.

However, I do believe that the carbs are different for the '04 (but I don't have an '04).

What I would do if I were you, to re-jet, I'd tell Srinath your set up, send him your carbs in the mail, and he can do it for you. Or if you want to do it yourself, then at least order the jets from him.

As for the forks, I do believe that the Progressives for earlier years will work in your bike. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong. Also, you may want to try putting spacers in the fork tubes too to raise the spring rate too. There are some pretty good how-to's on Pantablo's web site. That may help.
