Where in Manurewa are you two?
I'm sure there'll be another learner friendly/250 themed ride soon enough, would be good to see you there.. haven't met any fellow manurewian's yet !

Good on ya! Heaps of good rides out south. I'm very happy with mine. Commute to work from Papakura to the city as often as possible.

Have ditched the 4wd in the drive and opted for the yellow GT250R as well. Definitely beats sitting in long lines of traffic burning up diesel.

But who come up with this ridiculous restriction stuff?

That's my only gripe. The bike's great.

So, if you see another yellow one around Auckland, it might just be me!

Maybe catch some of you on a ride soon.

Are the GT250Rs restricted in any way?

**lordlinty** · 24th May 2007, 15:28

I should have said. The learner license restrictions are a pain, not the bike. (The 250 is restriction enough)

lol good on you mate ell done on your buy
min is red though lol but all good

Despite peoples stabs at Hyo's they are a good bike for the price.

Other day pulled up to an intersection at Victoria park and there was a Hyo at the front of each direction of traffic

**BarBender** · 24th May 2007, 22:26

Yeah - they're good bikes.
Enjoy mate.

The Hyosung has a range of nearly 400km (23km/l and a 17 litre tank).

A good starter bike but a surprising move from a 37hp 2 smoker. you're going to drop 8 or 9 hp and you're gonna miss it. Try one before you buy one.

I've been borrowing my wife's RG this week and boy I love it! And that's comparing it to a Ducati! OK so I still prefer the Ducati but I can't sing the praises of the RG enough.
