Title: Need Help
Post by: always1sb on September 20, 2005, 06:47:30 AM
I just bought a 05 GS500F yesterday afternoon and trying to find out about aftermarket parts for it.  Is there anyone that makes a slip on exhaust for it?  Thanks for the help and look forward to hangin out and enjoying the site.

Ok...so after looking at the bike closer you really can't just put a slip on on the bike....so who all makes a full system for the bike?

I also have a few other questions please....well the best question to ask and should cover it all is where is the best place to find after market items for the bike.

Vance and Hines makes a full system. Yosh used to but not any more. There is a Yosh on ebay now.

Is the Yosh considerably better than the Vance and Hines?

Heck if I know. I do not have an 05. It will fit the motor and frame not sure about clearance with the fairing. Do some searching, others have asked the same question plenty of times.
