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.

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.

DRZ400 will be the next gs500
Daniel Baker
Except the DRZ has redeeming qualities, unlike the GS500.

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

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.

>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.
Julian Gutierrez
Bike maintenance is fun
Kayden Jackson
>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.
William Hill
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.
Brody Gomez
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
Matthew James
Enjoy your denial.
How much did you spend on your GS500 by the way?

I Have no idea: the post
Nathaniel Collins
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
Benjamin Davis
Era meglio da giovane.
Kevin Clark
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.
Aaron Allen
>>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
Michael Gutierrez
>calls me dumb >whiteknights for a GS500 on the internet
Xavier Nguyen
>>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.

Christian Edwards
Nigga it's been like a year
Easton Hernandez
Didn't you go to bed, cunt?
Caleb Morris
when?
Liam Cruz
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.
Oliver Reed
SEF
;-;
Luis Bell
Why are there no motovloggers that ride cruisers?
Lincoln Russell
tfw American
Because Crusiers fucking blow
Robert Long
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.
>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.
Benjamin Mitchell
>>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.
Logan Bennett
Hunter Honda often rides some variety of cruiser, not sure what it is though.
Parker Foster
I do :^)
Zachary Murphy
You would own a GS500, CTA.
Jace Edwards
except for mx and Enduro for example nice try faget
Owen Wood
>implying
Christopher Stewart
>RIP LICENSE is this really true?
it's really handy With French and Spanish I can understand much of that, too
Aaron Foster
Yeah nah even new 2 strokes are going to fuel injection uleh, most 4 strokes have been since around 2010
Jack Rogers
>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.
David Perez
Two Smokes should have been injected since they were first used, like diesels.
Cameron Campbell
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
Julian Cooper
lemonade brigade bro
John Jones
yes exactly. some people even try and convert old 2 strokes to FI.
Brandon Rogers
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
Logan Diaz
>FI never starts acting up >Spend $0 on repairs >Enjoy even more savings in increased fuel efficiency EFI us the devil
Asher Jenkins
>flooding it Are you talking about flooding it with fuel or like swamping it and flooding with water?
Charles Smith
>fixing a FI problem Poor carb fags. They think FI is as unreliable as their ancient technology.
Anthony Davis
water, water kills efi pretty quickly and its not something you can fix yourself
Gabriel Martinez
>>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.
Colton Sanchez
You just drain out the water like any other bike.
Lucas Thompson
If sediment touches sensors or wires EFI will never work right again in the best scenario.
Brayden Roberts
Fill it up with rice once the water's out of it, she'll be right.
Julian James
haha i keked.
>think fi is as unreliable as their ancient tech
Colton Cook
>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.
Hunter Sullivan
yes it is I know all of that bereits :^))
Kayden Kelly
What do you guys think about mopeds?
Ian Morris
>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.
Julian Nguyen
Better than walking.
Camden Peterson
>civics 40 mpg
yeah they also didn't have to deal with insane modern emission controls and shitty fuel quality.
not a valid comparison.
Jordan Morris
They have their exists and entrances, and one moped in its time plays many parts
Joshua Sanders
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
Mason Green
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.
Carson Johnson
