    Hyosung fine at 100km/h?

    Hey,
    I have a 2007 Hyosung gt250r with a screaming demon exhaust, and I was wondering if the bike is okay doing 100km/h. The bike is doing around 6500rpm at 100km, and feels alright... But does kind of feel like its going pretty hard to do 100, so I was wondering if its alright for the bike to be used much at this speed, as I use it to do around 40km at the 100km speed limit a day to get to uni?

    6500rpm sounds OK for a 250. What does it red line at.

    This bike should do 100kph all day long with no problem.

    Relax and enjoy.
    Ride it until the wheels fall off...

    Its a Hyosung. Any speed more than 0.00kmh (in otherwords, moving) is enough to cause problems.

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Mate! I just took mine all the way up and around the Coromandel Peninsula over the weekend from the Eastern Bay of Plenty! You won't harm it at all.. Just make sure you check it over before going on a trip and you'll be sweet as. I had an awesome time and the bike didn't miss a beat, and I can assure you, I did more than 100km/hr at some stages!

    If it's got the stock sprockets then that's what it is designed to do and it should do it all day long.

    No problems.
    At those revs your hyohandbag should last just long enough for you to get a full-shortly thereafter disappearing in a puff of blue smoke..........'course you will be free to buy a real bike then

    I think you'll find that isn't possible.....same gear + same revs = same speed
    It's a fixed equation.
