    Hyosung fails again

    finally got my hyoslut running after the last accident XD took it out last night for a short blat and man is it fucked, all the fairing brackets are bent so just riding it has made it shatter the fairing, then wen i was going round a corner in 3rd and went to shift up it went into what i thought was a false neutral, so i tryed to kick it down 2 and it still seemed like it was in neutral reving its ass off. then i noticed my backwheel was coming out in a bad way (oh shit not again, same corner i broke my back on) so i pulled over and had a look at the bike and all i saw was this mass patch of oil, the bolt of the front sprocket had come off and the seals around it r fukd covered everything in oil, not sure if the gearbox has shit itself yet soon to find out tho

    but at the end of the day its a hyoslut and what can you expect wont b long now and ill have my cbr600 09 so i might aswell run the hyosluts face into the road

    Quality control? Hyosung fails?

    Ya what?

    You're bitching because you crashed your bike and it's not right?

    Did you hit your head when you crashed or something?

    *sigh*
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Ive known a couple of people with hyobags, and neither of them had any probs with them other than the usual moans of being underpowered.

    Some people are only alive because it is illegal to shoot them.

    You have extensive experience of crashing other makes, and the mechanical after-effects thereof ?

    Where to start?

    I will do a to start with, probably miss a few though.

    Sounds like you were lucky not to come to grief again today. Who did those repairs for you anyway?

    Sorry but if it has just been done then I would take it back to the mechanic that did the job as obviously not repaired properly...

    bet they were straight from new and only bent from the accident so that not the bikes fault.... did the mechanic not straighten and align them????

    After an accidents its amazing what can be broken that's not picked up...

    I'm sure the Hyosung came from the factory originally in top condition and would have quality controls in place... if it's only a year old and crapping out due to factory/mechanical faults other then accident dammage then take it back to the dealer for a warranty claim

    wasnt saying the fairing wasnt from the accident, i knoiw it was, quality and hyosung dont mix, check my older threads about that ive not had a verry good experience with them in every aspect, espicially after the dealership changed hands 3 times in hamilton and got stuck with the worst customer service i have ever experienced from supacross cycles

    I'm not convinced.

    I personally know of one Hyosung (bull's) which was in factory condition the day he sold it. Now he had it about 18 months, did about 20,000 kms on it and it never missed a beat.

    And anyone who knows bull knows he isn't little. If the bike wasn't good quality he would have worn it out really quick.

    Plus, weren't Hyosung responsible for manufacture of the SV650 engines for Suzuki?

    They may not be top of the line, but I reckon they're the equal of many Japanese bikes at the same price level, and definitely way better than Chinese manufactured motorcycles.

    Provided you are willing to maintain them properly, I'd recommend them to anybody.
