Whats up everyone - I've been lurking for a while and got inspired to do a little work to my own bike. I always thought the 500F had an overcomplicated stock tape set, so I simplified things a little and plasti-dipped everything. Let me know what you think!

Wow cool!!! I like that a lot BushidoBrown :bstar: I love that blue!
I think I see a different brake pedal there... what you got? And do you have more pics? :icon_mrgreen:
@Showbizwolf just dropped a few more pics. The brake pedal was on there when I got the bike ~8months ago. Never knew it wasn't standard.
Very very nice indeed. I like the rim stripes and the mirrors too. I'm guessing ya have onea those neat integrated tail lights as well?
I did go with the integrated tail. I like how the leds modernize the back end. I kinda wish the lense was still red though. I think it went better with the black.
What's the deal with plastidip? I've heard a lot of people talk about it, but haven't used. Is it spray paint? Is it colored bedliner? And I understand that you can peel it off at a later date? Bike looks sexy, btw.
Thanks :cheers: Plastidip is like a rubber coating. If you build up like 4+ coats itll peel off smooth like a vinyl wrap The cool thing about it is it self levels if you do it right and doesnt need primer (just a real good cleaning). Plus its super cheap, spraying the whole bike cost ~45 bucks
sweet looking good

That looks like the stock brake pedal for the F model GS's. Suzuki was always looking for a way to save a few cents. I think the E model brake pedal was nicer.
Ahh gotcha! Thanks for the info Bluesmudge :cheers:
