I believe the plastics ALL changed in '01.

You might want to use the [Parts Fiches Links (http://www.bbburma.net/Documents/GS500_Parts_Fiche_1.html)] to double-check diagrams and part numbers.

from looking on ebay and Etc , it was 01 where the bodywork changed , and in o4 ,they added a oil cooler

so 01 plastics wont fit unless there are modifacations to the Frame
