thank's for the advice mate really good advice :)im really pleased with it. Im not to sure i was just wanting a more beefy grunt to it. Wouldnt mind some more performance out of her though but still she does 155 tops :)

155 KM/hr = just shy of 100 mph? Not bad for a 500 twin. Local guys (Minnesota) race GS-500's in ultra-lights with decked heads for more compression and Vanson exhaust systems. I think top speed is still only +10 mph or so,and some have to use race gas (high octane) to avoid detonation. More trouble than its worth for a road bike. Learn to carry more corner speed and you can whip most wankers on 600's and liter bikes on the street ;-)

hello ntmatr you seem a good guy yo ask my question as you seem really good with taken bikes stock sytems off and putting aftermarket ones on. Could you please tell me i just bought a faired suzuki GS-500 and it has a stock system on it. Could you reccomend me an aftermarket system and also can you put aftermarkets on GS 500's??? cheers fella if you can help me many thanks ben

[ntmatr]

That's tough. Are you looking for better sound or better performance? A slip-on will give you the sound, but it will take a full system and either rejetting of your carbs or messing with the fuel injection to get it to run correctly. If you want a full system and you want to maximize the horsepower you'll need to have someone dyno-tune it for you, which can run $500 or so. Is there a good GS500 message board out there you can consult? Some has to have dealt with this issue. Good luck!

You must take off rear fairing to install new exhaust?

Thanks

[ntmatr]

Yes. The Leo Vince muffler has it's own mounting system that you need to use, so you must remove the OEM stuff first. And to get to that you need to remove the fairing.

Don't forgett that second part of video is without an eater!

Damn I had no idea Leo sounded so HOT........I'm gettin one!!

[katie16522]

The stock sounds louder at a rev. But the leo Vince sounds louder at idle.

superb man, superb sound

[thearborist87]

hey mate im actually goning to get a suzuki gsx1200 in a few month time:). I do love my gs though it is a great bike and she sounds nice to i love the sound of twins wether it be v or parralel. I know the gsx1200 is inline 4 DOHC so they will be pretty nimble and rather quick

[carsnwomen91]

@thearborist87 i rode my friends gs500f for a day. it wasn't as nimble as my 250 and not much more faster. sure it had more torque but the top end sucked. airl/oil cooled, 2 valves/cyl derives itself from the late 70's gs450. really old tech. but if u love it, by all means ride it!

[carsnwomen91]

@thearborist87 @thearborist87 u got 155 out of ur gs500? stock? my stock 250 would run 160 stock. my 250 with full exhaust and pod filters and my own set up for the carbs does a speedo indicated 170 -7% error = 158km/h. my friends stock gs went about 185km/h theres definately something wrong with ur 500. and i think u should sell it too they're terrible.

[fuckthelocals]

just clean the ass on that bike, from all the extra plastic, and switch to miniwinkers.. :)

[thearborist87]

nice one mate will have to try doing that on the conering. Some great sound advice you have got for a guy who has just passed there motorbike test:). Your star fella :). Enjoy your bike matey and ride good hope to keep in contact with you mate to see how your bike and biking life is getting on
