Have you taken your bike over any sweet jumps?

Looks OK, the rear grab rail is an interesting touch. Fitting Ohlins rear shock to a Hyosung! Why not just buy an SV650 to start with, seems OK for the money!

Did you check others on the interwebby thingy? See at least one with new bike warranty for $7500 with only 299k on the clockOriginally Posted by Mattyc

Because its quite a bit cheaper than an SV650.

I may have my wires crossed, but isn't Hyosung backed by Kawasaki NZ?. They seem like a good bike, pretty impressive for the money I think.

But it won't be once they've added all that stuff, will it?

can't say I wanna know about it either.
Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.

I've ridden an SV and the suspension is "average", somewhat similar to my TRX before I sorted it. For the price differential between a GT650 and an SV you could create something with slightly more HP and massively better suspension.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
C'mon lets ride....
SV shit wears out too ya know..............

My Mate ended up buying it for 6700$ its 2004 and done 16000kms, still under warrantee, custom pipes and mufflers, finished in highly polished stainless, custom stainless grab rail, the ohlins shock ( from hawera mcycles ) also it had a steering damper
It actually was fun to ride, until i got up to about 130 and i was like - where the fuck is the fairing when u need it, very nice sound and with the custom ford falcon blue it looks a lot different than stock, I believe Kawasaki do have something to do with hyosung, i heard a rumor the engines were kwaka designed
Was fun to ride, but i really appreciate my zx9r now, sooo much more poke and a lot more comfortable at speed with the fairing to hide behind
For the money he couldn't really get much else that was this new or in mint condition like this, i reckon he got an alright deal

Hone made me
I reckon he got a good deal too. Personally I probably wouldn't go there because of the lack of a fairing, but with that Ohlins rear shock, it could well be a better ride than the SV it's always compared to. Presumably you'd need to upgrade the fork internals to match though.
