I did the paper work today. Delivery scheduled next week. It's a 2004 Kawasaki EX500 with just under 10,000 kms. It's gonna be tough to wait until April (I'm in Ontario, where nobody sane rides in the winter)!

Nice! They are GREAT bikes!! :biggrin:

Hey congratulations. The 500 is a great bike. Is this your first bike?

 

[jonl]

No, my 4th, but the last was 25 years ago (I'm 50 now), and I've ridden more dirt than asphalt.

Gaaaah! Save my eyes from the 8-bit pictures!

Congrats Jon. I'm sure you're already chomping at the bit for spring to hurry up and get here.

Congrats! Sometimes I miss my old 500R, they're great bikes

Gaaaah! Save my eyes from the 8-bit pictures!

I agree, they're awful. I read somewhere on the forum that photos must be 85kb or less. May I insert larger images?

 

[Tod]

Yes you can. The easiest way is to host the pics on a site like Photobucket, and then just copy the image code and paste it here with the rest of your text.

Example of the img code:

An EX500 is the perfect reentry bike. Congrats.

2 days ago I actually saw someone out at 9pm on their cruiser! I had to look back twice to make sure becuase I couldn't believe my eyes. I don't know the weather you eastern people have been having, but our roads have sucked for almost all of dec.

There are some guys on ex-500.com in North Cali who ride in snow and freezing weather all winter. To be honest they put us Canadians to shame!
