Thank you so much Waqar bhai and Talal bhai. Actually you guys have already advised me in this regard and I have been following your advice. This is actually an old thread that no one responded to. But I got all my answers in a continuing discussion ("looking for a bike bigger than 150cc..." by Gorkan) I should have deleted this one, my apologies.
I have been looking for a GS500e for a couple of months now, and at present, my biggest limitation is the budget.
All I can spend is 240k for a bike that will be trouble free at least for about a year (of course with love and care). However the perfect bikes, like the one Talal bhai was selling, have a price tag of over 300k. Similarly there is Naeem Bhai who restored Gorkan's GS500e. I really liked him. He seems honest, straightforward and a great lover of bikes, but he also gave a budget close to 300k for perfect restoration, add to that a minimum 4 months for restoration, and things get too complicated. Gorkan himself advised against it.
So that's where things are. I guess I'll just have to see if I can increase my budget, but the way savings works for fixed income people, the pocket gets lighter, not heavier as time passes
