    same! I have taken my hyo to (an indicated) 169 admittedly that was on a bit of a downhill with my chest on the tank haha.

    Cant see the ninja going faster. . although it is alot lighter!

    i think my hyo goes 150 on the flat


    how much out are the speedos on hyos anyone know?

    those bandits are ok, but still better off on a zxr/mc22 because they handle and stop better. a mate in palmy got a bandit and it wasnt too great at all. but at the end of the day they are all slow..so get the one that stops better and learn to ride the fuck out of it

    haha yea and you can do that with most 250's but not a hyo, cause theyr so damn unreliable, i dont trust mine 100%
    at least both the ninja and the bandit are reliable

    that is true haha. the spada has been very unreliable for me but it still makes me laugh when im giving it a good rape. it gets an odd "flex" in the front end under hard cornering, id say its the pathetic amount of support between the fork legs

    they arent tooo bad, they are becoming cheaper cos the popularity is going up. i'm just about to put it in for servicing and i need a new clutch cable as well, which they will probably have to order in.

    if there were hyosung dealerships in auckland then it'd be cheaper.

    i've done an indicated just under 180 down a hill... on a private closed road.. obviously

    160 is easy(ish) on the flat.. 4th will get to 140+ before it hits the rev limiter. (if im remembering correctly)
    is <3 supposed to be a heart or an ass hat?
