Title: sad Sad day
Post by: sytsmadad on March 05, 2013, 05:27:55 PM
It is a sad day. I am selling my GS500E. I cannot ridea sport type bike anymore due to knee injuries. The good news even though I am leaving the GS family I will still be riding a Suzuki. My new ride will be a 2004 Suzuki Intruder volusia 800. Something I can stretch my legs on, because I will not give up riding because my body say no.

At least you don't have to give up riding altogether

I could not give up riding. If I had only one leg I would find a way. I love riding. Started out in 3rd grade on a 1970 Kawasaki 100 endure. I have been riding ever since.

My first bike was an '07...which by then was a Boulevard, but a nice ride. Nice nimble little ride. Good luck!

I see I'm not the only one with Harley reflectors on the forks!
I hadn't thought about using them on the tail. I'll have to consider that.
