After getting side swiped on the Hollywood Freeway, everyone told me no bikes. Then a friend let me sit on his new bike. Butt to brain: "Must have one of these" so I got a new GS500f (white & blue) the next day. After 25 years, it all came back as soon as I put this bike into gear. This bike was so easy to ride, stable and fun. Great around the city or cruising Alki Beach Drive on a nice day. Still enough power and stability for the freeway. Tough choice between the GS500 and a Ninja 500, but I think the GS500 in white looks so hot compared to the Ninja. It looks bigger than it is. The only negative is the inconvenient helmet lock (have to lift the seat) so bought one that fastens to the license plate. Perfect in that this bike rides like a standard bike but as a bit of the crotch rocket look. Love it! Get one for yourself!
