I've been toying with the idea of getting rid of the gtp or at least demodding to get a ls1 car. I wasn't finding anything nearby that was affordable for me, so I started looking at bikes instead. I looked at a few Yamaha seca II's, a '95 CBR 600, a '97 FZR 600, and a few of these bikes. Sorry for the crappy iPhone pics, I didn't feel like getting the d40 out. Anyhow the gtp is staying modded and even getting some nice stereo upgrades, because whenever the weather is nice I'll be putting around on this:
It's 2004 gs500f, its got 61xx miles on it, a few scratches in the fairings, but for $1650 I'm not complaining []. Its also great on insurance, only costs $182/year, or $25 more than the gtp costs for a month, plus this thing averages about 60 mpg's...I'm pretty excited to start riding a motorcycle. I've been riding dirtbikes/mx bikes since I was 5 but the road is a whole different game.
