well i only weigh 145 lbs, and right now the bike is stock and i can make it lift with the clutch, im going to buy a 14 sprocket, and if i need more ill buy the rear one, for the jets im still not sure, i will only have a slip on from a sv650... and no p-flow, unless it gives performence? and for the lights, there better but i still find them to big, i want something more at an angle,. same angle as the shape... i was looking into painting my bike mat black, with tremclad flat black, ive painted my helmet and bike with it and has turned out great

mike1994

is it possible to have a wider tire in the back?. and still cant find foot pegs

throwing it out there now, this forum is one of the nicest i have seen... this thread a perfect example.   No offense to the OP but you seem to just be reposting the same 3 questions over and over.  It was mentioned before this bike isn't a civic, there isn't a large wealth of aftermarket parts be it old or new, finding a slipon to fit your year and make is going to take time researching inlet sizes and matching them to your own.  The jet question can be answered simply by using the wikki and your bike year and model if all else fails, try it see what happens. Dont continuously repost the same question hoping someone will have a miracle of a response for you.  The bike hes more then a few swing-arm swaps and to be 100% honest anything is possible with enough time and money.  I can think of more then a few builds on this forum alone that display that.  But the main point really is, this isnt a stunting bike, can you stunt it, sure. but watching your videos of the scooter you make me a tad nervous as far as "stunting" your full size motorcycle. get a handle for the machine and then upgrade according to your comfort, your lack of knowledge on the entire topic seems a bit unnerving...

If you put a rear hand brake on the gs500, you would be the first.

I put cbr900rr rear sets on mine. I had to make a bracket and had to use parts from several different bikes to get the shifting linkage to fit. It was a real biatch, but I like it very much now and I dig the reverse shift pattern. Further back and a hair higher.

They make an integrated tail light that can be found on ebay. Might have to do some soldering.

This bike would make a terrible commuter bike if it were to be make a semi capable stunting bike.

There are engine guards available for this bike: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0&_nkw=gs500+crash+cage&_sacat=0&_from=R40

Im just trying to informe myself better

You will also need to turn the oil pump pickup around as it faces the front of the motor in original location it will not pickup oil on the rear wheel.

Note that the bike he is using as an example has about 3 times the power that a GS does, again its possible you just need a large pizza sized rear sprocket  :)
Follow the path of least acceptance!

Also would i be good with just a cage or sliders, and were should i mount them an witch ones? Thanks again

mike1994

I also cant seem to find mirroirs like these on ebay, www.dual-star.com/index2/Equipment/adjustable_mirror.htm looking for this but more of a clamp and not ehat they use, i have seen bar end ones, but the guy says they dont fit in the middle of the bar

gsatterw

Youre probably gonna want both. its tough to make the gs500 do low speed wheelies, so if you go down it will probably be a speed, so i would say both

Yes indeed i only wish o having a little cbr 600 or something of thatsort,, getting a viper slip on tonight from a sv650 lets hope i can fix it to make it fit aha

mike1994

just got a viper slip on exhaust from a sv650, now i gotta find a way to make it fit, the pipe is 55mm,,, a little too big, any tips to make it fit or should i just give it to an exhaust shop?

If you know welding , have some patience and have a reasonable toolkit etc ...  Then I reckon possible ..

Otherwise.. Get all the mounts/attachment points for the actual can sorted out yourself... Or as best you can.... Then take to shop so they can just zip zip zap and it's done... If you wander in with a puzzled expression and a loose can in one hand and finger pointing at bike with other.... Ka! _ Ching!!!
