just to let u know a blaster its a 2 strokes motor more compresion and power than any 450 regular gas motor its like 50 hp hunger of gas vs 27 hp full throtle

[MikeSchinkel]

And you thought we needed to know this...why?

[RaptorRyda91]

ive never seen one of these or even heard of Hyosung, n i gotta say it seems pretty badass

[MikeSchinkel]

Hyosung has been making engines for Suzuki for many years now. About 5 years ago I think they started selling a 650cc motorcycle in the UK and US to compete with Suzuki's SV650. They've gotten lukewarm reviews; great engine but the chassis, brakes, and suspension not so good. And for the minimal price difference there's little reason not to buy the SV650 instead.

This is Hyosung's 1st ATV of probably similar quality but Hyosung will likely improve and be one to watch 5-10 years from now.

i have one of this atv's and thay are very fast de-resticted i have beat most 450 atvs and a top speed of 90 mph its is a very good quad for the money . i admit the breaks arnt the best but who needs breaks lol.

[victorsandoval41]

i habe 2 te 450s and one 90,had them since 07,the 450 are 08 and they are great,my son is going to race 1 in the baja 500 this year,they are great

[1961woodstock]

same place you bought it from, there are just as many parts available for hyosung than the japanees parts

[1961woodstock]

Mike,,,,,,,,,,,, do you know if there are wheel spacers for this quad,,,,and what size would fit ,,,,,thanks.

[1961woodstock]

they have been in the usa for a few years now already,,,and making improvments as the time goes by,,,,,it is true there are not many that you see out there,,,because they are still new in town,,,but if you do see one,,,,,you will be suprised,,,,i shure was not dissapointed when i bought mine this year

[1961woodstock]

it is a suzuki engine,,,,,just to let you in on that,,,,,do your homework and find out for yourself about hyosung

[1961woodstock]

its a suzuki engine ,,,,, look at the real thing,,,instead of a picture and do your homework and you will know what you are talking about

[babyshaker207]

I get that. I did a lot of research, though. I would NEVER buy Chinese stuff. Hyosung is huge, just not yet in the US. I think they're basically just like Hyundai.

[QuadRider004]

im sure its good for the money but i havent had good luck with off brand things...i bought an off brand quad to putt around the house with and it started leaking oil after 6-8 months
