    This is what a real Hyosung GT650R racer looks like. It's a US Cup Racer, and it's been bored out and re-sleeved to 744cc. I've got all the information.
    So, what sorta horsepwer? Only 155bhp.

    What manner of US Cup would this be? Not the Auld Mug.

    Doesn't qualify for Bears or F3. Besides Frostys bike almost makes that and its only a 650.

    Seriously I think a Hyosungs better than a normally aspirated SV in standard form. The airbox doesn't sound like its as restrictive and your not allowed to modify it here in NZ. Even the air filter must stay as standard. But stupidy you can do whatever and spend as much as you want on the motor (to keep this entry level class cheap).

    If Frostys bike "almost "made that sort of HP he'd be beating all the 600 feild and a lot of the 1000cc bikes, I would doubt it is getting into triple figures
    "If you can make black marks on a straight from the time you turn out of a corner until the braking point of the next turn, then you have enough power."

    Notice I said Seriously after that sentence and stopped talking bullshit.

    Frostys bike makes (used to make) around 80hp at the wheel.

    The GT650 does qualify for the new 650 twins class, and in the US they have a Superstock Lite class. Here's the reply I got when i made enquiries regarding the Hyosung racers:

    The 744 would be limited to formula extreme and
    superbike We can detune the machine to a limit within
    AM but please let me know the spec you are within. We
    will sell to you direct on racers sponsorship price if
    you provide a valid race liscense. Please ley me know
    what you are requesting, we will send price outline,
    and ship details, short of building the machine for you
    complete here in the states.

    Thanks Tj
    They have a huge selection os custom made parts for Hyosung GT650R's which can be viewed here:
