Hello folks. Its been a while since I posted! My GS-500 is gone, but I'm not. Will try to pop in every now and again to try to add to my 555 (now 556) posts!
I imagine that there are a whole bunch of new peeps on the board to get to know.
How do you like the R1? Hardly any difference is there!? :cookoo: :wink:

My first upgrade from the GS500 was a 1999 R6 (you can read about it here (http://"http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=25049.0"). My next bike was a 2003 R6 (post) (http://"http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=36229.msg406846#msg406846") and then I eventually ended up with my 2004 R1.
Its been a few years since I have ridden a GS500... and yes, there is a noticeable difference between riding the two of them.
Not sure what I would go to next if I could afford it. When I started riding I was single and paying $500/month in rent. Now I am married with a new baby girl and paying all of the bills... so a new bike won't be in the cards for a while.
I do like the ZX1Rs and the Duc 1098... but I might have to compromise on something more comfortable for my wife to ride pillon on.
where pics? R1 :dunno_black:
