    That's what the writeups said they were supposed to be able to do, but very few have.

    I would put this miracle down to good riding practices.

    I put it down to sheer luck.

    Well... thats one... how many have failed, not even counting those in circulation mid way...

    sheer odds would say that one would make it... look at the claims tho... a total of 3 shocks?

    Nice tyre usage tho. I've been through 3 complete sets in 24k Not a 250 tho

    Just goes to show they can go the distance and Hyosung stand by their product. Good effort.

    It makes me laugh that at the end of the speedo the indicated speed turns into a red color..

    As in, go faster than this and there is a good chance the bike will explode..

    I put it down to rider respect for the bike. It's a credit to how it has been ridden.
