My 2007 Suzuki GS500F. It’s a great bike to learn on without growing out of too quickly. Has decent power and faily light weight and doesn’t look too bad. Also has excellent fuel economy…around 50mpg or so. Anyway, here’s how she looks after a few mods (I bought her used but in mint stock…

Here’s a little movie I made about my Suzuki gs500f, making some wheelies and other stuff Feel free to post comments (good/bad), enjoy

Hi there, this is the 3rd movie of my Suzuki GS500F, I just love this bike and I would like to share a few images of it with you. Don’t mind to post comments Enjoy

This was my ‘80 Suzuki GS550L… I purchased it with 14k miles on it in the summer of 08 and sold it with just over 21k in may of 09. The modifications done to the bike were simple. New paint all around and emblem removal on the small panels. Custom seat recover. Handlebars with bar end mirror. New mini turn signals all around(rear ones weren’t installed in video). Slightly modified stock exhaust and K&N filter.

Just a look at my bike :o)

While riding to Queen Mary Falls & Tooloom Falls, the return route was back down hill through the Mt Barney Twisties. Nice weather. Time for some fun. With the recent roadwork all done, the last 3rd’s corners were smoother. Only glitch, the pick up with the dirt bikes. Watch carefully and you’ll see him cross to the other side of the road often. It was decided it was Safer to be in front of him than following - wrong side of the road on blind corners is a recipe for disaster. You’d think a motorcycle rider would know better. The rider of the ZX10 following the GS500 commented later that the GS500 made him work for it and was amazed at how nimble thet GS500 was. Power to the Suzuki GS500!
