"Red Rebecca" is up for sale. It is more of a feeler ad. I am picky about finding the right buyer because this is could be called a "girl" model. The factory graphics are hot pink. The word "Suzuki" sparkles in the sunlight. I've seen other 1993 models but they either have black/red graphics, red-only graphics, black-only graphics, Purple, or they just say "Suzuki" on the tank in black fill. I've also seen 1993 models that are solid red with no graphics at all.
I wonder if most guys take one look at pink graphics and reach for the heat gun and goo-gone. I've seen two other GS500e's on Google image search with the pink-sparkle graphics.
That's what I don't want to happen. I don't want to sell it to a guy who is going to mutilate it for the sake of his ego.
Then again...business is business and once the title is signed over, I can no longer call the shots. Plus, I drove a Toyota MR2 Mk1 from the 1980's this weekend...and I...think I need one of those cars!
Was the speedometer your wife's doing?

The speedo was done at my own hand! I got a ticket once on I-81 south of Hazelton PA.

Good for you. You're more evolved than me. When I was a young guy, I went out of my way to prevent people from calling me "ghey." That included clothes, music, my car (driving a Dodge Neon didn't help), shoes. This was the mid 90's and grunge was still IN.
Nice looking bike, good luck with the sale!

Dude, I-81 South is bad news bears. I got nicked by a state trooper going down to Carlisle. They all seem to sit on the southbound side after the 114 exit until Chambersburg.

Oh yea, you know it :( I had a 1998 GS with the Aztec Orange colors, Targa chin-spoiler, and cowling. I sold it to a younger guy from Allentown. He pays me my asking price of $1,600. I was feeling good about that... A few years later I see it up on Craigslist for $1,800.
It was missing
all the plastics. It had Clubman bars, weak LED turnsignals and a lunchbox filter.
