Hi, all.  Some of you may remember me, and I'm sorry if there were any loose ends I forgot to tie, but this summer has been pretty hectic and I just ...sorta...dropped out of society for awhile.

Had some fun on my bike.  Did a good bit of work to it.  Now I'm living back at my house, got a job, and just need a car this winter. 

So I'm going to have to wait till next season and buy another GS500.  But until then, this one's for sale:

I bought this bike in 2008 for $1800, and at the time of purchase it had 1800 miles. I am the second owner. The bike sat for many years in a garage, unused, and needed a bit of TLC. As it sits now, the bike has had the following work done:

Cleaned the carbs.

New D.I.D. Gold X-Ring Chain

New Pirelli Sport Demon Tires

Fuel lines replaced.

Two new fuel filters (one for each line - main and reserve)

New NGK Spark Plugs

K&N Air Filter

I've only ran 93 Octane in it as recommended by a friend. The bike gets between 52-60 mpg depending on the weather. It's a really fun bike to ride, and runs perfectly. It's ready for the season. I put about 3k miles on it this season, and rode it very responsibly - never speeding or acing the throttle, or burning out, and certainly never popping wheelies or any other foolish, dangerous thing. I've been a professional driver for six years and the road is dangerous enough on four wheels. Anyway...

The only downside is the color. It used to be a nice midnight pearl black with blue flake that you could only see at certain angles. The kickstand gave way at the gas station one day (It's my first bike and I didn't set the stand properly) and dented the tank. I found a good price on another tank from Adidasguy here at the GSTwin forums, bought and installed it - but it's yellow. It's not the worst yellow in the world - sort of like a Lotus yellow - and I've got a set of matching yellow panels and fender for it, too. The old tank was brought to the dump by my grandfather (sorry to those who were interested before) but I still have the original plastics. It's got a few nicks on the frame, but very minor and just surface scuffs.

I was going to paint it a flat black over the winter - it would look really sweet in flat black, by the way - but now I need the money more than the bike.

I don't want to sell it, but I just started a new job and I need a car.  Gonna go to one of those buy here/pay here lots and get something decent.

It's a great bike, and it needs a good home.

Here's some pictures - note that the plastics don't match the tank - I also have the matching yellow plastics as well as the original black pearl, so you'll get all three:











I've also got a set of All Balls brand wheel-bearings that I bought when I purchased the chain. They're included with the sale. The stock bearings are fine, I just got them because they had a deal on the purchase if I spent over x amount of money. They were about $60 total.

I'm also including a Shoei RF-800 helmet, size M, in gloss black (cost $150), and a pair of Teknic riding gloves (cost $70)

Lastly, the bike has been stored indoors in a heated basement since I purchased it.  I can't and won't part it out - it's too nice of a bike, and I just don't have the time.  Unless, of course, you want to buy ALL the parts at once (:

Location: Ivoryton, CT

I could meet someone within 50 miles of 06442.  Make me an offer I can't refuse!  Write me @ nothingultra@gmail.com or reply here.

If I could buy... I would :0 that is just great!

Seems like a good price, ya?  I tried to put a fair price on it, for the miles and the parts.

I'll trade you mine for yours Haha I love the leather seat.. I think it looks better than the GS500f model I have.

I'll trade you mine for $1800

Man, I really need to stop spending so much money on food.. Damn parents should feed me every now and again and I wouldn't! WELL I'll actually keep watch on this. I have a few things I could sell that are high price items $1,500-2,500 Items.. now its a challenge to get them sold.

Yeah, man!  Get some money and buy my bike!  Where are you located?

Sadly I'm also located in Florida.. If I had a car, I'd hitch a trailer to it. drive to you, and pick up this sexy beast. and I already know its a lot of money to ship it to me aswell.

We'll see what happens.  If you end up deciding you really want it, maybe we can work out a deal.  $1800 is negotiable.

Hmmm.. I wonder.. if once I get the money If I could just buy a train/bus ticket up to your area. and ride it down. Only problem is getting it tagged. and not getting pulled over. for not having a tag/or invalid tag.. Ideas ideas ideas...

Use another tag and keep it under the speed limit. I cannot condone illegal activity.

But dude, it's pretty friggin' cold up here right now!  I wouldn't want to drive all the way through in this weather.

give me a month 

you know what would be nice?? record a video of it running, ride it down the street a bit, and post

I'll have to wait till my GF brings my camera back, but ok.

Maybe this is a bad place to sell a complete bike?  Everyone at the GSTWINS forum already has their OWN GSTWIN?

Well maybe so, except for me and a few others.. 
Tony

No reasonable offer will be refused!

REASONABLE

You're too far from me. I have 3 and 2 as a bike cave full of parts yet to magically assemble themselves.
Tony - want to sell that white KS1? Cool looking bike!

Yo dude how did that tank end up a different color?

Derp. I read the OP. My bad.

even though the yellow doesn't match i still kinda like it lol. 

If you have another motorcycle you can take the tag off of it and make sure you have a GOOD bill of sale and title with you, and ride home with that. If you get pulled over you can explain you bought the bike and are riding it home - it happens all the time. They understand.
