    Rides like a Harley!

    My VFR is in for a service, so borrowed a GS500E, maybe two years old. Riding home, (Wrei to Paihia), I'm thinking hmmm,.. crap suspension, wooden brakes, vibration everywhere, no poke in any rev range..... just like riding a Harley!!! Not as embarrassing tho!
    Seriously, cant think why you would buy one of these! Look further, thats my advice.
    lucky bastard

    This would be a better middle weight but it's in Welly

    It could do with a good clean-up & general going over but essentially they're a much better allrounder than a GS500
    Pretty lively performers for their size

    A mate had one as a runabout when they were new and it was shitload of fun
