		Have owned 2 GS500s and thoroughly enjoyed surfing the asphalt with them.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
A smooth, comfortable ride that handles well, loves curves, good fun on the track. <br /><br />
<br /><br />
OEM parts/mods can jazz this doll up.  She's a real looker with the advent of bodywork!<br /><br />
<br /><br />
A big plus -- for the inseam-challenged like <span class="simple_review_box" >...</span><span class="expand_review_box" style="display:none;">myself, this bike is easy to throw a leg over and balance without being on tiptoe. <br />
