No, you don't want a GS500F, with all that plastic & stuff.  You want a naked bike, a GS500e.  I have one for sale....  a blue 2000, 3200ish miles, new tires, jetted, K&N, Progressive springs, excellent condition    :mrgreen:

Yeah the new gs500f's dont really thrill me that much. I much prefer the older 500e's without the fairing... Unless we are talking about the TCP eleptical fairing :D I could go for that. Really my price range is pretty low, I dont want to spend much more than about 1500 or so. I already found a few early - mid 90's models that I could go for!

I have a knack for mechanical things. I got into a carrera gt (one of the hardest cars to drive), and i didnt stall it first 2 times, stalled the third time, and then i drove it a bunch more without any stalls. There are people that buy this car and have been driving porsches stick for many years and stall it the second they try to drive away. Im 20 and have been driving stick for 3 years and i drove it no problem naturally. I just have a knack for them
