    No, I'm a frayed knot.
    You'd need to buy some race-bred go fast parts as well.

    Like racing decals.
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Dunno really....

    Did i say that? Nope. What im saying is that it's obviously not a cruiser ( like a GN250 is ya muppet lol. ) It's got the sport looks and stuff, it's not a race bike but it's still sporty i reckon, even tho it is slow. My opinion! Don't cry!

    Watch this, this has to be the most random marketing ever. Doing a stoppie on a hyosung and saving the little turtles!!!! Now that's marketing!

    Hmm, lets see, my 50cc scooter has stickers of flaming soccer balls, and red neons underneath, I must be up to at least 100HP now

    Also because it's from the Hutt it has the compulsory bullet hole stickers and parts held on with cable ties.
    I finally got my knee down! …and my shoulder …and my pillion’s head.

    Well the only sport ya do on a bike is race isnt it? I dont think you can play rugby on a motorcycle. All im saying is "racing" must of had some influence on the bike.

    There is nothing 'race' about a hyosung, except perhaps it's burgled asthetics. I've seen a hyosung with over 150g of weights on the rear wheel just to get it to 'balance'... doesn't seem very race to me!
    Hehehe aint nothing race about them my hornet out corners out accelerates these things ive ridden them and there a sack of shit compared to my hornet the only thing i did like was the fairings on the m.way and the way it looked. the brakes where better than my bike tho. hyosung = hyoshit>???

    GN forks are better than the USDs on the hoyobag. At least they have some resistance to fork movement.

    Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
    It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.

    Just seen a very nice looking bike parked outside Repco. Red and Black, USDs, mag wheels, a very nice looking bike. Turned out it was a new(?) Hyosung. I hadn't seen one that looked like that. One very smart looking bike.

    That would be fun. Slow, but fun.
