Bought my first bike

smedly · 05-20-2006, 08:11 PM

2005 Suzuki GS500F.Figure it'll have enough to keep me interested while still being forgiving while I learn.Spent the afternoon tooling around the neighborhood to get use to it.So far,so good.

sweet, my bro just got a 2007 gsxr.... how much did you pay for that???

smedly · 05-20-2006, 08:27 PM

List was just over $5100.Got it for $4599 plus fees.It was like $5800 out the door.I was able to pay cash so I don't have to worry about a bike payment.

You are doing it the right way. Don't forget, you can easily hurt yourself on a 250cc bike.
Always respect whats between your legs and it will respect you. :shifty:

Nice!!! Very good first bike. I like the blue/white. I have not had one in a few years. Makes me miss it every time I see one. Your doing it the right way. Have fun, be SAFE. Any bolt-ons planed??

Not looking towards any mods,its got 487cc's so that will keep me happy for a good while.Maybe that'll change(well,okay PROBABLY),but my main focus is to get to where I feel comfortable to take it on the vast roads we have here in Colorado.It gets 58mpg,has a 5 gallon tank,and is dirt cheap to insure(under $400/year full coverage).
