Title: 2008 color
Post by: MikeNW on March 29, 2008, 10:03:03 PM
Has anyone seen the GS500F, in the 2008 blue color?  They make blue and black schemes.
Is the blue a sapphire blue or is it "normal" blue?  Actually I like yellow and black better but I would get a new one, once I settle somewhere else. 
I am asking because I saw a Suzook in blue, it was sharp, sort of metallic or sapphire.

Thanks

To my knowledge, the GSX650F will be taking the place of the mighty G twin for '08.  O0

Or should we say blue and white.   :laugh:  The GS lives on, so far.

This is the last year for the GS twin?   :mad:  The 650F is "OK" but the 500 is still air cooled.  :icon_mrgreen:
I hope I can get my poop together and buy one soon!

As for the color, I can't tell from the Suzook site if it is blue or metallic blue, that's what I was wondering.

Another thing:   :cry:
The 500F is $5200 and weighs 396 dry
The 650F is $7000 and weighs 475 dry

Progress?  I think not.  Greed maybe.
More isn't always more.  Sometimes less is more.
