Got a new toy this evening

I know the season is over, but I got it for a screaming deal:

1994 Suzuki GS500E, 3700 Miles

 

[adsm08]

cool.

Hmm... its like a crossover bike... business in the front, party in the back... oh wait, thats mullets... anyway, looks like a sport bike in the back but a regular one in the front.

Good find, looks cool!

That is EXACTLY why I wanted Either this bike, or a Buell Blast. I LOVE the way they look, and that they have a bit of 'sport' to them, but you still sit a bit upright Vs. things like GSXR's

And I'm not gonna say how much, Freaking cheap, Lol.

Exactly, I can't even begin to explain how hard leaning over on a bike is on your back...

The trick is to go really fast, so the wind holds you up

Nice find, I've always liked those. They still make that bike with a fairing on it, which is pretty amazing since that engine debuted in the 1976 GS400.

Or ride a continuous wheelie?

Doesn't that make right turns a bit difficult?

Indeed it does.

If you want to get REALLLLLLY technical:

A) It was not sold with a fairing as the GS500E, the GS500F that came out in like 04 came with or without.
B) It was derived from the GS450 powerplant,

My brother had one of them. Fun bike. It may be the off season but that the time to get a steal on a bike
