Title: Hello All!
Post by: scott-s on March 18, 2024, 04:35:11 AM
 Hello everyone!
 It looks like I'm going to be the new owner/caretaker of a GS500 soon.
 I had actually hung up my riding gear and sold my last two bikes (1971 CB500 and 2017 Triumph Street Scrambler).
 Then my buddy reached out...

 He has a GS500, affectionately known as The Goose, and he's offered to give it to me!
 He's owned it forever and done some tasteful mods along the way. I'm sure it will be easy to "reawaken", and I don't plan on doing much other than maintenance, safety and maybe some handling upgrades.

 Here's all the pics I have for now. I'll update and start a project thread when I actually get my hands on it.

Welcome, the Goose is nicely between your two old bikes in simplicity and reliability. An parts are super cheap on ebay. Keep u sposted on your reawakening.
