Title: Hyosung gt250 tail end on GS500f?
Post by: xhyperxshogunx on April 22, 2009, 10:30:21 AM
im was comparing picture with my gs500f frame with hyosung gt250 and it look very identical. May be the tail piece and seat and also the fairing might work?(http://www.motorcyclespecs.co.za/Gallery/Hyosung%20GT%20250.jpg)

What about other stuff like the sweet brakes and forks and clipons, basically the entire front end

im working on getting some measurements for the tail of the gt250/gt650 to see how close it is to the gs

Its brakes and suspension are no better then ours they just look a lot better, But I have been thinking about the tail plastic from them for a while as they are now everywhere in sydney and should be filling the wreckers shelfs by now :cheers: :thumb:

Well, I wouldn't exactly call it a ripoff. Hyosung used to produce motorcycles for Suzuki, and then branched off to create their own line of motorcycles. Quoted from wikipedia, "...Hyosung began producing Japanese Suzuki motorcycle designs under license for the Korean market in Changwon, South Korea in 1979. In 1986, they established their own research and development center in Hamamatsu, Japan, and the next year, they began mass production of their own designs."

If you look at the GT650, it is VERY similar to the first generation of the SV650.

Is it just me or are there no mirrors on the bottom bike? I'd think that'd be standard right? I guess their motto is "mirrors, we don't need no stinkin mirrors"

Looks kinda neat though I guess.

You're just going to have to live with it when people call your tail "Syo hung".
Cool.
