First for I got first

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank

Such simplicity, such masterful design and reliability.

No wonder the GS500 remained basically unchanged for 27 years. They knew they designed a great basic bike to fulfill the needs of the everyday man.

...

>unchanged
Fuel injection fucking blows.

Indians fucking blow.

Nice, except for the tassels. They are gay.

What? The GS500 has never been FI. Only changes were in like 1994, I think. Better brakes and higher spring rate on the front.

>What? The GS500 has never been FI.
That's why it b good

gs500 is literally the worst motorcycle

just like the miata is literally the worst car

No, that would be any old 2fiddi

:^)

>gs500 is literally the worst motorcycle
So bad they produced it for 27 years and it sold like hotcakes.

Nice maymay

Keep projecting honey, maybe one day they'll believe you!

Post a one with a quote from the police report from when your bike got stolen

DRZ400 will be the next gs500

Except the DRZ has redeeming qualities, unlike the GS500.

PORCO DIOOOOOOOO

Are you retarded? It's still for sale, they have made heaps of money off this design.

Why don't you own a KTM dbt?

Work bud is selling his WR250F for $2500, not street legal yet. Low hours. Do it? Fuck, I want one, but I'm a lazy piece of shit that hates maintenance.

victorian cb400 user is a flamboyant homosexual

>cuckold: the post

drop user why do you have such a big boner for the potato farmer?

why do you do this WRanon

tater farmer, why do you have such an erection for the drop user?

>hurr dis biek has been production for a long time virtually unchanged so it must be good!

Post-purchase rationalisation's a bitch, hey.

They kept it around for so long because it was more cost effective to keep it cheap and nasty than wasting money on updating it, let alone designing a new one.

Bike maintenance is fun

>hurr dis biek has been production for a long time virtually unchanged so it must be good!

That is true tho, you are legit retarded.

Tried my buddy's Street Triple RX last night, did a nice power willy when I nailed it.

Man I want a bigger bike, maybe with this referendum out of the way we can ditch the stupid EU licenses.

I've got a need for speed

l the Punto just blew 2 cylinders about an hour ago.
I have literally no money, a vehicle to fix and no license anymore
kill me

Enjoy your denial.

How much did you spend on your GS500 by the way?

>speak Spanish and Portuguese
>can understand about 70% of written Italian

10/10 me piacci Monica Belucci

I Have no idea: the post

lol you're an moran

>bike starts errytime
>no bog
>no finicky fuel and jet screw
>crisp throttle response everytime

yeah FI is total garbage brah

Era meglio da giovane.

Enjoy you memes

I paid 1500 (needs card clean special, that's actually all it needed) and sold it for 2800.

Sorry you are dumb.

>>bike starts errytime
same
>>no bog
same
>>no finicky fuel and jet screw
Same, i have high idle/choke lever combo on the handlebar and idle speed knob on the carb, couldn't be easier.

>>crisp throttle response everytime
Same, I keep my carbs tuned and clean

FI worthless

>calls me dumb
>whiteknights for a GS500 on the internet

>>They kept it around for so long because it sold well and did its job perfectly as a budget commuter/beginner bike. They still make it to this day due to it being such an effective design.

FTFY

Glad I wasn't the only one to cringe when reading that.

>doesn't know how good of a design a bike is

GS500 STILL IN PRODUCTION

CURRENT YEAR

MEMESTERS BTFO

...

did someone say potato farmer?

Nigga it's been like a year

Didn't you go to bed, cunt?

when?

Not really. It's not even particularly reliable for a street bike, has a lower top speed, is heavy for a dual sport/motard, has a shitty gear spread, lots of vibrations, uncomfortable seat, etc.

SEF

;-;

Why are there no motovloggers that ride cruisers?

tfw American

Because Crusiers fucking blow

Because they're more expensive than my DR650 both in purchase price and maintenance costs, long term reliability is questionable (compared to Jap dual sports at least), and their dealer network sucks compared to the Jap motorcycle manufacturers.

Ok faggots
Long time no see..
What do you think?

>my outdated technology is well maintained and works therefore its better than new technology.

yeah just all modern vehicles and racing use FI, confirmed for dog shit.

>>my outdated technology is well maintained and works therefore its better than new technology.
Yes because it doesn't require a myriad of sensors to function.

Hunter Honda often rides some variety of cruiser, not sure what it is though.

I do :^)

You would own a GS500, CTA.

except for mx and Enduro for example
nice try faget

>implying

>RIP LICENSE
is this really true?

it's really handy
With French and Spanish I can understand much of that, too

Yeah nah even new 2 strokes are going to fuel injection uleh, most 4 strokes have been since around 2010

>carb starts acting up
>spend less than $100 on carb cleaner, rebuild kit, new pilot jets
>literally all you need to work on it is a couple of wrenches and screwdrivers
>have bike running right again in under 2 hours

Good luck fixing a FI problem for under $500 if you can even figure out how to diagnose and work on it yourself.

Two Smokes should have been injected since they were first used, like diesels.

lel, it's my dad's, I've rode it on a parking lot, can't ride it on the road because >A2

also first long ride with the CB tomorrow :^)
>pic related

lemonade brigade bro

yes exactly. some people even try and convert old 2 strokes to FI.

i disagree, 2 smokes are simple and so is a carby, flood an efi bike and its fucked you have to pick it up on a trailer, flood a bike with a carby, turn it upside down, drain the water out, start it up and ride home

>FI never starts acting up
>Spend $0 on repairs
>Enjoy even more savings in increased fuel efficiency
EFI us the devil

>flooding it
Are you talking about flooding it with fuel or like swamping it and flooding with water?

>fixing a FI problem
Poor carb fags. They think FI is as unreliable as their ancient technology.

water, water kills efi pretty quickly and its not something you can fix yourself

>>FI never starts acting up
They do and it's $$$$$. You probably haven't been driving long enough to need to fix a fucky FI.

> in increased fuel efficiency
Daily reminder, original Honda Civics achieved 40 mpg, 3 liter corvairs achieved 30 mpg, Datsun 510s can get 35 mpg etc. Stop basing your opinions on massive V8's
>flood an efi bike
Although this can almost never happen.
>flood a bike with a carby
All you have to do is WOT while cranking and it will eventually fire from a flood.

You just drain out the water like any other bike.

If sediment touches sensors or wires EFI will never work right again in the best scenario.

Fill it up with rice once the water's out of it, she'll be right.

haha i keked.

>think fi is as unreliable as their ancient tech

>Daily reminder, original Honda Civics achieved 40 mpg, 3 liter corvairs achieved 30 mpg, Datsun 510s can get 35 mpg etc. Stop basing your opinions on massive V8's
>he believes those fudged figures

Also, they don't. EFI failure is really rare. Harnesses and connectors are usually waterproof.

yes it is
I know all of that bereits
:^))

What do you guys think about mopeds?

>Also, they don't
Actually they do.

>he never drove a late 60s-mid 70's economy car.
Come back when you do my man.

Better than walking.

>civics 40 mpg

yeah they also didn't have to deal with insane modern emission controls and shitty fuel quality.

not a valid comparison.

They have their exists and entrances, and one moped in its time plays many parts

The only EFI problems I've ever heard are
>help I installed a straight through exhaust and put holes in my airbox and didn't retune now my bike runs bad
and
>help I bought a ducati

Such as? Also, daily reminder that fuel injectors are more mechanically simple than carburetors. It's probably why the first thought isn't what to do when they break, unlike carbs.

>el chipo grande tuning exhaust
