    Does anyone know the actual HP figures on the gt250r? been looking through some sites and they say it is between 24 - 30hp. Sounds REALLY low?? Some sites also say the top speed is 130kph? can someone clear this up as i'm considering getting a shiny yelow one

    I know where there is a gsx6f for sale..............

    I have had a couple of looks at those hyosung and I cant see much wrong with them to be honest. They look nice enough. You will have to get out there with us. This weekend sounds like a good ticket.

    One of my mates has the gt250r. they can definately go faster then 170, and there are definately some things you can do to them to make them get there quicker, see the guys down at Mt. Eden motercycles, they know all the stuff.

    Not to try and discourage you but there was a member here that had a whole heap of trouble with his that he bought new and Hyosung weren't very helpful at all. They basically left it to the dealer to take care of things even though the bike was still under warranty. That kinda talk about about a bike really steers me away from it for a start. They 'look' good though - if that's what ya want (a bike to look at)
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    the new 07 Kawasaki GPX250 is coming to town in August (well to dealers.. notably Hamilton Motorcycle Centre).. so I'm hoping to check one of those out, and hopefully have enough coin to get one..
