    Do you realise how many holes there could be if people would just take the time to take the dirt out of them?

    PF, I am not a pervert (okay, maybe a little bit) but I'd film the girl on girl action and sell the IP of the video to someone like Steve Crowe for a decent amount.

    Speaking of that, any lesbians or straight females want to earn money making porn? $500 an hour

    Yes, I'm in Auckland. I think it would cost around $400 to get it down to Queenstown. Or if you rode it back, approximately $100 - $120 in gas.

    You can bake pies? shit you are marriage material.

    Yes it is a great learner bike, it was my first 'propper' road bike, it's never been crashed or dropped, it's a good size and the weight is very well distributed and it feels extremely light and easy to hold up. The lock on it isn't too great (turning radius) but what sportsbike has a good lock. I can do a U turn in a one way street.

    Other than that the power is very friendly and the brakes work well even for a 110kg rider.

    MAKE ME A CRAZY OFFER AND I MIGHT JUST ACCEPT IT!

    • Nice smooth engine, not too powerful but quick enough to cruise at 120 kmp/h
    • Serviced on the dot
    • Well used but still in good condition, fairings have a few stone chips but hard to see unless you go looking for them, plus a couple of small 4 cm long scratches down the bottom of the tank (from jeans or some shit)
    • New rubber
    • New chain and sprockets
    • New Rego
    • Goes good
    • nice digital display with fuel meter and shit


    I need to get more space in the garage so I'm quite keen to let my precious go to the right home. I've been around most of the North Island since I purchased it in Feb of this year. I'd love to hold on to it for sentimental sake but 'eh ...

    Make an offer, if I like you enough I may even take $3,000

    A bit of History

    Okay, here is a bit more detail about the bike. I have retained receipts for almost everything, ranging from replacement spark plugs, puncture repairs to the purchase paper work.

    The only major problem I've ever had is as follows
    • Purchased 1/02/2006 from Mount Eden Motorcycles
    • First 1000 km service 10/02/2006 by Red Baron Motorcycles with 1014 km on the odometer
    • 12/02/2006 with approximately 1,500 km on the odometer the front coil failed
    • 15/02/2006 the front coil was replaced under warranty by Mount Eden Motorcycles


    Servicing History

    The warranty was based on 10,000 km or 1 year. For the first two services I had it performed by licensed Hyosung Dealerships to keep that warranty in tact. However when the 8,000 km came around I did it myself and all subsequent services from there in aside from the tasks which required a "professional".


    Other Minor Faults

    Faulty Side Stand Switch
    For whatever reason the side stand switch become faulty, I didn't need it so I removed it and disposed of it. The wire is still there and intact, all that is required (if you want the switch back) is to purchase another side stand switch and wire it up. As far as I understand, the common reason for their switches to fail is general road grime and grease build up along with water and all the other crap dumped on our roads.

    Leaking Fuel Tap
    Although the fuel supply is vaccum operated (i.e. nothing to play with, reserve comes on automatically) the tap from the tank began to leak at around 18,000 km. I was told the reason for this is because of the crappy additives in our fuel and if I'd purchased bad fuel it "could of" damaged the seal. I don't know how much truth is in that, but when the Westgate Shell were moving their tanks I filled up there a few times at the start of rides. So I presume this fault was a result of their tanks receiving added water and other shit. Regardless of that, I wen't into Mount Eden looking for a replacement an was quoted just under $140'ish. Instead of having to pay for it, they replaced it free of charge dispite my warranty being expired. Good guys they be!


    How I've treated it

    I'll be blatantly honest here. I've taken it down the drag strip at Mere Mere, never been on a track though. It has been taken to red line a couple of times to see the top speed (168 kmp/h on the flat with me, a 6,1ft 110kg rider with codura gear on) however for the most part I've cruised around 110 - 120 kmp/h and very rarely gone above 9,000 RPM. The red line is 10,500 RPM and it does 100 kmp/h at 6,900 RPM and 120 kmp/h at just under 8,000 RPM. I've been down a lot of gravel roads from the east coast to the west coast. It has been ridden in the rain but always garaged and washed on a regular basis. There is very minor surface rust in the end of the exhuast and underneith the fairing where the exhuasts join which I have been treating with stuff. The back brake disc has a few gauges in it from when I first got the bike, wore out the back pads pretty quick being a newbie! It was sanded back and is all good now. I've practised a couple of stoppies on it but crushed my nuts one too many times to make a habit of it.

    I found it really good to learn on, it handles extremely well for what it is, the riding position is comfortable and unless you're a weakling its hard to drop! The power is extremely friendly and I think that's the best part about these bikes which makes them the ultimate for learners or people who just want to toodle along.

    Nah, too many old men own them!

    So many hot young stallions, such as Dover, Skelstar and myself have owned Hyosungs and Honda's, Dover just wen't a bit gay and brought a Suzuki after the Honda.
