If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
Very well written article. Answers alot of questions.
So has Hyosung been rebranded in the US? Is it going to change here?
Read the first paragraph. Don't worry i didn't and it had me wondering for awhile!
*edit*
Ok not first paragraph but its here anyway
The third challenger arrives thanks to Korea’s S&T Motors
(formerly known as Hyosung). Utah-based ATK has made a
multi-year, $100-million deal with S&T to rebadge some familiar Hyosung models, and after further development, eventually
manufacture them in the US. One of these is the GT250R, a
sportbike that mirrors the look of the Hyosung GT650R midsized sportbike. In place of the 650R’s liquid-cooled 90° V-twin,
the GT250R carries a free-revving air/oil-cooled 75° V-twin .
So there you have it. With three solid contenders, it was time
to wring their necks and see who makes the best little sportbike
in motorcycling. We figured it would be close, but in the end we
had no idea how close.
What's the point in a single cylinder CBR? Honda made some pretty good CBR250s back in the '80s, and the new ones are nowhere near as good. Well done Honda for ruining a very good bike.
Concur. Too bad its a Honda tho.
And....note the more recent 250's may have sporty looks, but there seems to be a general trend here. They are getting slower and perhaps heavier - but easier to ride and perhaps more fun as as a commuter / learners machine.
The CBR doesnt really strike me as a bike Honda intended to race against older 250 fours.
plastic fabricator/welder here if you need a hand ! will work for beer/bourbon/booze

Modern 250s are slow.Originally Posted by MCN
