Nothing right now actually, just looking ahead so I don't have a "O ****" day and have no mechanic. I do, however, need to change my air filter soon, I don't even know where it is lol And after that, all of this:

Don't know how hard it will be...just following info to make sure I can pass down the bike in 2 years without someone going "WTF DID YOU DO TO IT?!"
To reiterate everyone's thoughts, if you do search online you'll find a lot of tutorials and videos. You might even find your bike's repair manual somewhere. And if you don't, buying it in paper form is worth every penny.
I just made a tutorial for replacing an air filter for my zx6r which you can read and get a baseline, but it's very bike specific. it's in the techical - projects section.
Replacing the air filter can look like a crazy job, but it's not too bad if you prepare for it.
The gs 500 is a great bike to learn on. If you mess anything up, parts are readily available and not very expensive.
Good luck
