Is anybody available in the LA area to help me evaluate a used GS?
Luckily I have found a few GS500 used bikes and even a few EX500 (However this site has made me really respect the GS!).
This is my first bike, and I don't trust myself to be able to evaluate a good deal from a bad buy. :dunno_white:
From San Fernado Valley to San Diego, let me know if there are any great deals to be had.
:bowdown:
I'm in the west LA area and if I can spare some time I'd be happy to help out on a local bike. You already found one or still looking?
Hey That's great Pablo! :thumb:
Send me an email, and at least you can have a look at the pics and stats of the bike and tell me what your gut says!
and Pablo's a busy guy, so if anybody else out there has some time and knowledge it would be appreciated!!!

Anybody available to drive around Saturday afternoon with me and check out bikes? (Sat March, 25)
I might be able to help out early afternoon. I live in Orange County. There was an online used bike buying guide. I'll see if I can find it.

he's got one in costa mesa he's looking at-closer to you than me...
4. Costa Mesa - 95 GS500, $2000 (sounds good, over
priced for 95).

this bike runs excellent, very good condition with
only 8000 miles, also just did regurlar maintenance
and put new michellin tires on it,
Costa Mesa is pretty close to me. Neophyte, if this is the only bike you're looking at in OC, I can probably check it out for you and let you know if it's worth looking at. Possibly save you a trip down. $2000 does sound overpriced for a 95. I got my 2000 for $2000.
Yo kid, That is a generous offer! I would love that you check it out and let me know the deal! :bowdown:
it's the only one down south worth looking at. Although there is another over priced one in SD. :mad: Just follow the link, and get in touch with the seller. Also send me an email, and I will give you a call friday evening. (email pasted above)
I have read the buyers guide that you gave the link for. Good info there! Thanks for all the help guys on getting another GS rider on the road! :thumb:
I'll give the seller a call tomorrow and try to arrange to check out the bike after work.
Man Suzuki lovers kick A$$ :thumb:
Thanks Kid! :bowdown:
well, what happened?
We made some calls but none of the sellers were available to let us look at the bikes. :dunno_white:
Well I have been looking for a good deal on a GS, however I have found "over Priced", sellers that are too busy to show the bike. been out-bid on a bike, and found one with fuel problems. A Suzuki dealership tried to talk me into a SV650, but I would really like the ease of up-keep of the 500. So the search continues. UGgggg
well keep at it. be patient and you'll get exactly what you want, for what you want...
