@frank252 inexperienced rider like you started on 600-750cc? 250cc are Better beginner bikes better safe then sorry

i bought 07 hyosung as my first bike and its freaking awesome guys....they have everything, better looks than ninja, big tyres, good handling and braking......don't listen to their reviews, its amazing 250cc bike

Hyosung is korean crap!!! Why should people choose korean bikes when they can choose quality???

[mosellid]

Fast 250cc

1. Aprilia RS 250cc Top speed 220km/h

2. Kawasaki KR1-S Top speed 218km/h

3. Suzuki RGV 250cc Top speed 205km/h

All this 3 250cc bikes, are 2stroke and lot of more hp compare to those 4stroke`s.. When you want a bike with small engien, it has to be a 2stroke. Faster acceleration, higher top speed and more fun for wheele`s :) The sad thing, they don`t produce this bikes anymore. They was produced from early 90`s to early 2000 so have to look for used once. You will smile :)

you really would think that honda yamaha suzuki and even the italians would be fighting even for the 250s

everyone who has a hyosung in the UK, get rid of it now!!! more trouble than the pile of poo is worth!!! barrus (the company who import it into the UK) will fudge you over as much as they can, they have had several recalls on the 250 and when i had a problem with one of the recalled parts which they didnt contact me to let me know about and blew up my engine it took for me to hint that I would sue em before they did anything and they still havent fixed the pile of s**t n its been 2 effin years!!
