Hi peeps,

I have to ride it with a 25KW   restriction because i have my driving license for just 3 months now. I live in Holland so it's the law here. U have to ride 25KW bike for 2 years and then u can start riding everything. well Cya

I give.

I'm Brian.

Born and Raised in Pennsylvania and have lived here except for the time that I have spent in California (San Fran), Texas (San Angelo) and on the beautiful island of Oahu in the service of our Country (hua Army).

I am third generation Irish/American married to a beautiful Greek woman, so my 3 children will be great looking drinkers with bad tempers   .

Beware.

Just don't eat too much mussaka!  It makes you fat :mrgreen:

Tammey from Pa. 38 and in sales.  Just bought a 1995 Gs today; great little bike to add to the stable.  I already have a Kawasaki ZRX1200R  

I cannot remember if I have posted in this thread yet or not, so here goes...

I'm Glenn From Hammond, Louisiana.  32 years old.  '01 GS500.  First bike.  Loving it.    

I am 34, married and have three beautifull girls (one being my wife of course).  My daughters are 5 and 3.  I took the MSF classs in July of this year and purchased a used 1997 GS in August.  I love riding and wear all of the gear ALL OF THE TIME.  I have too much to live for.   I live in a small border town in southern Arizona.  Nogales, AZ.  There are a lot of places to ride without having to get into heavy traffic.  The elevation is just shy of 4,000 feet so I can enjoy year round riding.

Hi all!

My name Jlez, I'm 24 years old, and I come from France...
I currently have a 1996 gs500e, with 750 gsxf rear shock (good mod   )
If you don't take into acount the rear shock, my gs is pure stock.

But I also have a 1980 gsx400S

This one is currently being completly prepared...

I'm going to put gse cylinders on it, with xjr 1300 pistons.
a 400@555 gsx

for the cycle part, I think of it, but nothing is done ....

Hi folks.

I just bought a -98 GS500E on monday so I'm as new as one can be.
My first 'real' motorcycle by the way.

How about this for new Manix?

I haven't even picked up my new GS from the dealer yet.  Getting it on Wednesday..

Btw, I'm Mark, 33 from Lancashire UK.  Been commuting to work on a 1987 Virago 400 for a few years now but the thing finally decided blow up on me last week.  It would cost more to repair than the bike is worth so I decided to scrap it get a 500 commuter.  All thigs considered (insurance, looks, mainainance etc) I decided that the Suzuki was the one for me.

Can't wait!

Heh, OK, that's new.

Sadly I drove my GS to winter storage yesterday so my driving season this year was only 3 days.  

It won't be long until there's 3 meters of snow on the ground, you see. That's Finland for ya.  

Greetings all. I am new as a member to this forum but have been reading for awhile. My significant other (Moose) has been on here for a little while so I decided to join up to seperate our identities. He recently bought a 91gs500, my background is more in european bikes and I was at a loss when it came to his new project. My last bike was a 1978 Motto guzzi G5 and I sold it several years ago when I decided to become a mom. His project has brought back that yearning to be on 2 wheels. Our youngest son has autism and loves bikes, he doesn't repond to many things but the sound of a motorcycle gets his attention and his face lights up. Moose, myself, and our 2 boys live in Euless texas. We hope to have the bike up by spring so we can start working on a bike for me and take both our boys riding. Anyway, ther is a little bit about me and mine...

TTFN,
Lucky13

Lucky13, one of my favorite memories from childhood, was when my dad took me on motorcycle rides. He only had a bike for a few months and then he sold it
Word of warning, you may have to buy your kids cars to keep them off motorcycles when they become legal driving age.

This is true... PLEASE tell Moose this, he is wanting to get our oldest a dirt bike to cut his 2 wheel teeth on so to speak.

No that would be a four wheeler first, then a dirt bike later.  Then for his first motorcycle my GS500 when he gets old enough.

Love it! I'm also a mom.
Welcome!  

Moose & Lucky13, I am just warning you I blame those rides my father took me on for my addiction with motorcycles. At 16 after getting my liscence I promptly bought POS 77 KZ400. After my first emergency room visit my Dad bought me a car if I promised to lose the bike. I showed him by getting a Yamaha 440 when I moved to college. :lol:

Hey folks!

I don't think I've ever posted in this thread, so here goes.. apologies if this is redundant.

I'm Ron from State College, PA.  I'm a graduate student in the chemistry department here at Penn State, so I spend most of my time working or thinking about work (yuck).  Before moving to PA I have lived in Maryland and in southwest Virginia (go Hokies!!).  I would have to say that of all of these places, the mountain empire of SW Virginia is by far my favorite place to be     Gotta love those Appalachian twisties  

peace
