Same here, just bought my first bike (GS500E 2002) and comparing it to my Fiat Grande Punto 95cv this thing flies. Be safe out there, we have to learn and adapt before having this control on the gears, even if we already have experience on 4 wheels

It was all stock

Sorry they are down for a period. Hope to have Them back up at some point

@@Palm9moto I loved to listen dominator muffler when You where riding. Please upload them as soon as back. Best Regards

Where?? I don't know if you are familiar with this platform, but this engine basically pulls the same way all the way from 2500 rpm to 5500 rpm, after 5500, basically it just loses out, unlike the Golf GTI engine. Think of it as very similar to a diesel. Redline is at 6000rpm, if I don't shift, then the car will automatically do a slower shift.

Okay.

Should be. I bought a Suzuki GS500E Slingshot which is.

What my dad told me is that the R65 needs a different gear ratio. Stock it has 4.4, but it needs a 3.38 for it to shine.

I am an old poet and I love it...

around 50hp. Factory claims 51, though that's fresh and stock.

Dominator exhaust. No db killer

It’s pretty fast for first beginners

Fast enough for everyone,

Probably around 250hp

I just did my stage 1 today lol it said 247 bhp 413nm torque and no way actually got 13 seconds 100-200 ima test mine soon

@@harismahmood7506 now can the gearbox handle that amount of torque?

@@bandile_sisonke DQ250 can handle a lot more easy

Yo tell me about those winds though lol thought I was gonna get blown off the highway today.

@@KleinHeister I had a good laugh, not really. I hope you are laughing still cause either you are over protective of gs 500 or you haven't ridden a real sport bike. Or there is a third option, you are trolling. Whatever the case, you can either be a comedian or speak the truth but you can be both. By the way What is your weight, that might help with the crosswinds.

@@SVwindsor I was agreeing with you. I was going 80mph yesterday and it was super windy and it was definitely effecting the bike. Im 180lbs 6'2

@@SVwindsor also I havent ridden a nicer bike yet, but I wanna! Been looking at 600s

@@KleinHeister I apologize to you as I misunderstood you. For anyone thinking of buying a specific bike. Please try it out first. Personally, I am a big fan of the HONDA cbr 600's . they seem to reach the perfect harmony in performance, comfort, longevity. Sound, looks, riding posture and lastly insurance. But the only issue is finding the cleanest one.

Thanks for your comment. I experimented with trail braking into the corners, but I also noticed big improvement by giving throttle earlier out of corners, after watching the footage. It was remapped to 247hp 425 nm, but in this video it is stock, only with exhaust mods :)

It is barely fast and anything over 6 k rpm is just sound nothing worthwhile. Over 100 km/ hrs 60 miles/hrs the rider feels lot of wind all the time.

Lmao

@@SVwindsor you forget that most people getting a 500 are upgrading from a 125. Anything more than 15hp is rapid if light enough.

@@SVwindsor you're most likely not american, but this IS an american's point of view since they can drive a hayabusa at 16 years old, in europe a 500 is more than enough

I get it, everyone has their own perspective relative to their demographic about suzuki gs 500. It was a nice bike back in 2005 but in 2023 not very much. Being carburetor, older technology compared to anything after 2014 is substantial Weight distribution, ride posture, ergonomics, styling and power , braking are below to a 300 cc in terms of price as a value. One argument our American friend gave about Hayabusa and 16 year old is totally like asking for admission to an E.R hospital. Anything over 90 hp is unnecessary for the public road no matter which part of world one is driving. our physical bodies are not designed to take such sheer forces as in torque and excessive speeds unless you have an ego problems. In that case nothing is enough. Now, thinking rationally. A honda cbr 600 f4i or any cheap 600 inline 4 (insurance affordable with exception of America where deals are a plenty) should suffice. Why in line 4. Once you keep one you will know, almost impossible to explain. But mind you , do keep one in your life time. It's worth the experience. Safe riding everyone

Yes

Thanks for your comment. The bike had a blackwidow full exhaust system on it. It was cheap, but in less than a year, paint on the tip of the exhaust started bubbling up.

@@Palm9moto From pinning it everywhere no doubt!

Thanks for your comment. I sold the bike years ago, craving a similar one these days though :)

This was a dealers demo bike, all stock.
