So I have bought a 07 Gs500f from a guy on Craig's list for $900 and a set of 22in rims sweet deal if you ask me. It's been dropped on the side but I figure I would probably drop it a few more times myself so no big deal I can learn to ride on this one. So far I have added K&N Air filter and Oil filter, flush front signal light, Chrome Suzuki Decals, new chain, Black Cherry Kandy with Green & Orange shift Paint job, new plugs, I'm waiting on a rear seat cover from Cowl Tech, and a dual signal and brake light from ebay. Still saving up for a nice pipe anyone want to sell one, and I want to change the handle bars anybody know of anything I could be missing to really turn the bike out... how do I upload pics to show my progress
What K&N filter did you use?A rejet is necessary if you change air filters and/or exhaust.Not doing so will lead to running problems and engine failure.Everything else sounds great but, we need pics or it didn't happen. :D

"a gs w/ 22" inch rims on it???" was my first thought after reading the post haha, definitely not a bad deal at all. d'you sell the rims?
private message The Buddha on here, i think he still has some full exhausts for a great price
Here are the Pics I have so far of the bike some before I took it apart and a few after I have a restricter on the Air Filter so do I still need to do a re-jet on the bike. Oh and No I don't sell rims but I get them for a good price whenever I go down to G.A, I received my rear seat cowl today and dropped it off at the paint shop so the bike will be "cross my fingers" should be painted tomorrow my painter told me I can out her back together by lunch I feel like a kid on the first day of school. :woohoo: http://photobucket.com/trabmc1
Yes you need to jet.Your carbs are different than mine.Wiki says jetting should be 20/62.5/140 for a drop in.DO NOT USE DYNOJET KITS!Ask em how I know. http://wiki.gstwins.com/index.php?n=Upgrades.Rejetting look at the year range your bike falls into.
I updated the pics on the link above showing the paint process next step is putting her back together
Check my post for handlebars. I installed Vortex clipons and they are awesome.
