just trying to defend the choice of another, and renounce some of the negativity...which apparently got under some people's collar. I haven't been on this forum in a long time, as I was more busy riding (76 cb550 cafe'd, a 93 suzuki gsxr, a 04 kawa vulcan). just picked up a pair of gl500's...

point taken. I agree about safety, I have two kids, and I don't ride unless I'm confident I'll be back later that day. As soon as october hits, I drop the insurance and park it. it gets too cold at night to take a chance riding the bike home and hitting the one spot that froze up. And I...

missed my point. my appologies if i was unclear. To categorize any person not riding every day all day as a "hipster" or poser, or whatever you want to call it is unfair and unrealistic. a bit like the guy who brags that he doesn't own a t.v. The fact is motorcycles are not the best, safest...

forgot to ask why I got wrapped up in this in the first place. What size are those tires actually? the rear looks really close to the swing arm on the inside. I'm trying a bobber version, and want to fit a fender in that gap too, so want to know exactly what size your rolling on there. Thanks.

two things... 1. That's a cx 500 custom, not a gl500 silverwing. gl has a monoshock. unless that was replaced in the build. regardless, that's an awesome bike. 2. If you are constantly riding, every day, using your bike as your primary mode of transportation, then those tires aren't the...

curious if the paint turned out. I know this is an oldish thread. I heard a good etching primer was needed on the shiny bits. (got a winter project....with comstars...but its on the back burner)

I would ship to canada for the right price. It is about double to triple the cost (40 to 60 us dollars).

As I said, I don't really know the value of them, because I don't know if they are in good operable condition, and I don't have the time to tinker with them to find out. I do believe between the two sets of 550 carbs you could make one with a bit of work and a rebuild kit. I've seen individual...

sold the bike...don't need the carbs. 3 sets. looks like 2 from a 550 and one from a 500. I also have a bunch of small extra parts. some o-rings, and rebuild parts, etc. I don't know the condition of any of these, as I got them with the bike and never needed to install them as the bike had...

any news on the diy fairing? Or did it land in another thread?

Re: suzuki gsxr 600 streetfighter oh, and I will think about trades. I'm looking for at least 1000 cash plus trade motorcycle, cause I do like riding. But I'd like something in running condition cause I just don't have the time to spend in the garage right now.

1993 suzuki gsxr 600 for sale in Menominee Michigan for 1700.00. (that's an hour north of Green Bay, WI) Second little one arrived and I've barely had time to use it this summer. Runs great, no leaks. Fast and loud. The only things wrong are: The fuel petcock is frozen open The can is loose...

I have a 1993 suzuki gsxr 600 streetfighter for sale on green bay craigslist for 1700. I might be interested in your bike, as I am looking to "downsize" financially, but would still like a bike to ride around with. I tried to post pics, but it didn't work. would you be interested in my bike...
