Very nice!!! I have the F model, but the E looks so much sweeter.
The GS looks good in red and black. Also looks to be a virgin, very nice.
MMMmmmmm red and black! DROOOOOLLLLLL!! :thumb:
she's pretty much spotless. i was shocked when i saw her up close for the first time, and after hearing her run and a quick spin, i was sold lol and i'm going to do everything in my power to keep her the way she is :D
Thats in amazing condition, congrats! The more I see the nakeds the more I want to chuck my fairings...If you wanna keep her the way she is you better stay away from here! lol...This place is bad news ;) I said the same thing as you and now I'm kneck deep in changes...
Nice....did ya happen to pick it up in the Frederick, Md area? Saw a 96 on CL that looks just like it! :thumb:
Holy f%$k - that's mint! Congrats.
BTW - 140 rear?

I picked it up from a dealership in tyrone pa. It was quite a drive but totally worth it :D glad to see everyone is as impressed with it as I am :laugh:
how much?
looking at the condition I would guess very close to $2K from the dealer.
where at in Pa are you located?
going to assume the usual, western or southeastern hahaha
<< seems like the only active GS rider on these forums from northeast Pa now. :bs:
Very nice! Love the color. On that note, does anyone know where I could pick up a set of decals like that? I'm not digging the '94 color splash decals... kinda reminds me of a cheap sweatshirt I would've picked up at Walmart in the 80's.
they were asking $1799 but i talked them down to $1650, a pretty good deal i think :)
i'm located in bradford in northwestern pa. i also love the color of my bike, i was never a fan of naked bikes until i saw this one and now i'm in love :D

Although I'm sure you can find them cheaper.

faark nice bike :woohoo:
Nice bike. Looks mint!!!
thanks :) enjoyed the post about the oil too lol i think i'm gonna like it here :thumb:
Was just saying the other day.. The worst thing Suzuki ever did was make the GSX650F look almost identical to the GS500F... They should have just kept it looking like the Katana (down tuned GSXR style) or the VSTROM (nekkidish like the GS500E)...
On another note: As I was telling shonole in PM... Go grab some RUTLAND's Stove Polish (cast iron blackening polish) and rub some into the exhaust pipes... After you apply a couple of coats (or a single coat) go for a long ride to heat the pipes up to bake it on. Helps prevent them from rusting and darkens them up a bit for cheap as dirt.
Very Nice! Please don't do anything to it!

I agree.. Except for maybe a little snip snip on the fender.
thanks for the tip on the pipes, that was the only thing that has any rust and it's very minor. other than that i may polish up the hand levers but i want it to stay all original :) glad though that today i finally got to go for a short but chilly ride :D
Do you like orange better? I'll trade with you.

If your gunna do a fenderectomy, please, PM adidas guy and trade him for a fender thats all ready been fenderectomized.
No need to kill a good one when cut up ones are FREE.
might be something i consider in the future, and if so i will definitely save the original (i can never bring myself to modify or get rid of an original part) but my goal is to keep her all stock :)

I bet there'll be more.
I'll wind up making and undertail kit for my bike out of fiberglass and u can have mine(after I do a FE swap, find an engine for it, buy the house.....its on the todo list, or bucket list, they seem to merge)
Very nice bike! And at a good price! Welcome!
thanks :)
