    Funny enough, Plenty of people consider them to be damn sleek looking machines, Though that is usually the ones pretending to be sports bikes.

    i grew a major dislike after the guy at kawa dealer tried to sell me one. other than it feeling sluggish and not my kinda styling...
    he said and i quote: " dont worry they are just ninjas made in korea, same thing " .

    i just walked out.

    The other major thing that i was thinking of...

    IS there even a market for 250's in the USofA? Cruisers or sports bikes..

    I mean, dont they consider sth liek the Suzuki M50 as a beginner bike? whilst over here they are considered a medium sized cruiser.
    A new hyo GT250R would b priced similar to an old 650ish? wont the 'squids' be more attracted to tht?

    Would they stock the Hyosung 250 cc range in the USA, don't they think that a 650 (which Hyosung do make) is a l;earner bike?

    Anyway, just who decided to put those ugly ill handling crappy bikes in the same showroom as the Hyosungs?

    Just kidding!!!

    Imagine how sweet it would be if you raced a bike that didn't suck balls.

    Not me.

    That aside, anyone who ties their ego to their bike deserves to be mocked.
