Starter Bike for the right $$
By (I am an Owner) on Apr 15, 2010I Purchased this bike from an Auction with 190 miles this past month for $2800. Does this bike have balls? Not exactly. But being in college and not having the best income I wanted a cheap starter bike that was still going to be able to push that 100mph mark for those times when you just feel like ... revving it up! Overall recommendation: If you're looking for a cheaply priced starter bike with one nut, then this is the one for you.

Great Bike for the price
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 02, 2009I have owned my GS500F since Fall of '07. I got it at a end of the year price - out the door for under $3700.00. I really like this bike. Is it the fastest, baddest thing out there? No. But take it for what it is...a V-Twin 500 that is a great intro bike at a good price. I think it has a well ... styled look. The machinery is a solid, time-tested package that handles the road easily. I live in the Hocking Hills of SE Ohio and the GS500F makes my 4 mile commute ALMOST worth going in. My little bike can keep up with all but the most aggresive riders on the tught twistys down here. I would recommend this bike to anyone wanting a fun ride at a decent price. Don't expect bells and whistles and you'll be happy.

1st Bike
By (I am an Owner) on Jul 12, 2009I got my GS500F in February 2009 as a weekend bike (I needed a hobby). As a first time bike rider I am very happy with my purchase. Bike is easy to handle and gets me up to speed fast when I get on the I-10 but it's not too powerful that it gets me into trouble. I have 500 miles on it so far and ... no complaints.
Another reason for getting the Suzuki was that I have a 30inch inseam and I sat on every bike possible for 5 months after getting my license and this was the best one for bottom comfort and having my two feet flat on the ground.

More than a starter bike - GS500F
By (I am an Owner) on Feb 11, 2009I've had a GS500F going on two years now and it is certainly much more than just a starter bike. I've done some serious miles on my GS and have yet to have a sore "seating area". I regularly average 55 to 60mpg, the handlebars are more upright than "sport bikes", making it more comfortable and ... the engine has enough power to take me all over Southern California. I'm not a racer, and I don't suggest this bike if you are, but I've easily maintianed highway speeds and even crossed the 100mph notch. The fairing deflects just enough wind so you're not hanging on and with the added saddle bags and tank bag I have enough storage to go away for a day or two. 5 out of 5 stars in my opinion.

GS500F Great Starter
By (I am an Owner) on Oct 10, 2008I believe the best starter bike you can buy. The bike is light and easy to handle. The gas savings was a major bonus.
