I have put tried to tell the Suzuki GS 500 F model history on this page as I know it. I would be grateful of any contributions — sales brochures, magazine ads, magazine articles, pictures, specs, facts, corrections etc. Please scan the material in JPEG format (large enough that all the details are visible) and send them to me. Please tell me the source and the publication date if possible. If you send me pictures of your own bike, please follow these instructions.

For the 2004 Suzuki introduced a model with fairing, GS500F, on the side of the naked GS500E (presented 1989). You could mount a full fairing to model even earlier, a full fairing kit was available at least in Germany. This time the fairing came from Suzuki and was already mounted on the bike. Technically the models are identical. See the GS500E on a separate page. 2004 Colors: Candy Grand Blue/Pearl Still White (HU9), Pearl Lively Yellow (Y9H), Metallic Saturn Black (Y7H)
