i went to the dealership this afternoon to look around but i didn't see any gs 500 in the store. all they had were r bikes 600 and up and a bunch of nice cruising bikes too. one of my cousins told me about a motar so when i got back i did some research and looked up motar man they are some sweet looking bikes. so what i want to ask is a motar a good starter bike also? and also who sells motar any specific company. oh yeah by the way i went in and told the salesman that i was noob and that didn't even stop him from trying to sell me a r bike. so i guess there salesman out there that just want to make there commission and not give a thought about safety for the rider. knowledge is only finger tips away
