I'll jump in. I could not find a picture of the GS how it was when we first got it. No clue how we didn't take more pictures. I found this first picture off google since shortly after we brought it home we covered the bright yellow with flat black spray paint. Basically it looked exactly like Gregvhen's first pictures...

and it's current state, which is not it's final state, just it's current progress.....

So far, I'd say CZOKO is in the lead for most drastic change while still looking rideable.

Acid has the best paint lines...I might have to copy something like that if I get around to it :thumb:

Here's mine when I got her

And as she sits until I get a new head :(

Is this place like in a video game and the goal is to kill frogs or something. So they erect a sign to let you know the road killing can commence.

In our state, the only similar things you see on the road are Toads. And everyone aims for them!

Acid: That is the best looking paint scheme I have seen on a GS500. There are literally only 2 bikes that have a great paint scheme that I have seen for the GS500 and your's is one of those. Congrats on a great paint job! :bowdown:
