2005 Suzuki GS500F Top Speed and Pictures



I have one gripe about the Suzuki 2005 GS500F it's build quality. You have to be prepared to keep this bike sprayed with anti-corrosion spray on all the vulnerable parts (you'll find out which they are if you keep an eye on them and watch for corrosion to appear - then give them a squirt regularly and you'll be OK). This is especially important in the (English) winter when they salt the roads. If you're not careful your bike will look like a real dog by the end of the winter. Regarding after-market exhausts for the GS500F, in the UK try Predator (Google it and you'll find it easy enough) they do a nice stainless exhaust for around £300 which should see you all right for many years (better than the mild steel job that Suzuki put on which is never going to last any time at all).
