    Newbie - GB500 - I have questions.

    Evening. Purchased my 1st bike. Fell in love with the look and sound of the GB500. I have a service manual, but I'm looking for a copy of the owner's manual. Also the bike is in great condition.....but when it needs a service. Who in Hamilton would you recommend?

    I wouldn't consider Hamilton. I'd take it to Trevor Hall Motorcycles in Te Awamutu. He does first class work at good rates.

    Great choice. I had a GB400 and loved it. What ever you do don't don't get rid of it. Keep as a seperate/backup bike if you decide motorcycling really is your thing.

    Ditto! The GB400 is what got me back into bikes in 1987. Lovely machines and agree with Bonez - don't ever sell it.

    Also had a GB400, ran it for nearly 10 years before finally moving on. Great wee bike.

    I had a mate who had one and we scooted all over the place loaded up on them. The FX650 I just bought in a kinda grown up GB in many respects.
