Welcome AC2B, good bike for an oldie too <G> actually it's just a good bike. I've done my last 12 years and 170k miles on a couple of GS500s, a 97 followed by my current 02.

88,300

My 02 is about to turn 10 but looks older since I ride it year around here in NE Ohio, salt capital of the universe. But it still looks young if I stand next to it. LOL

Anything on 2 wheels is better than anything on 4 wheels I always say. Actually I kinda liked those Blasts and was looking at them a while back, I'm now 4" shorter than I was when I bought my current bike. Found a couple good forums on them but lost the links, recall they liked the Avon and Pirelli scooter tires if you need tires. Hard to find tires that fit the Blasts in oem sizes.

On 250 south of Canton, some real nice roads down that way. http://maps.google.com/maps?q=tappan+lake+ohio&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&oe=UTF-8&rlz=1I7ADFA_en&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x8836f528124158e9:0x241e2ae123611aca,Tappan+Lake&gl=us&ei=6tzTTdK4LILE0QG06ZHtCw&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=title&resnum=1&ved=0CCEQ8gEwAA

Just signed onto this forum and ride a GS500, Father Time is chasing me on a Gixxer. Been riding year around here in NE OH for about 26 years and 390k miles having had my first ride back in 1984 at age 52.
