Don't Buy A Hyosung

I have similar problems with my 250R that a previous poster stated. It is extremely difficult to shift into neutral at times, the mirrors don't stay in place, and the front suspension lost stiffness quickly. On top of that...I took my bike to 2 dealers in the Portland metro area and got the worst se...rvice I've ever experienced. The first told me they'd have anestimate by the end of the week and when they didn't I had to call 5 times and speak to the owner to get the estimate. Since the service was so bad I took it to another shop and the repair took 5+ months because they had a problem getting parts. Then when I got the bike back it was scratched in several locations, the front end rattles, and a part of the faring was broken. They also charged me more for the repair then what they quoted me on the estimate and when I spoke to the owner and told him that they needed to talk to me first before raising the bill he said it was only an estimate and subject to change. It was the worst experience I've ever had with a business. When I spoke to the owner about the issues I had, he yelled and swore at me and didn't do anything to resolve the problems. My assumption is that the good mechanics work on the bigger brands and the bad mechanics find employment working on hyosung bikes, and there is no quality control that the brand requires of its dealers. Honestly biggest mistake of my life buying a hyosung. Read Full Review

SO FAR SO GOOD

Bought this bike a year ago and still enjoying it today. Since I'm a first time rider I can't really compare it to other bikes but overall I don't regret my purchase (like they say, ignorance is bliss). From other reviews I've seen it seems the 08-09 year model are better in terms of reliability. Read Full Review

Holding a charge...

My son has a GT250R and my wife has a GV250 Alpha Sport, Neither one of them can hold a charge for no more than a day and a half. I am constantly putting them on charge just to do it again for the following day. If there is someone out there that knows what this issue is can you post here on this we...bsite. Read Full Review

Hyosung GT125R

the Hyosung gt125r is a perfect bike both for comfort and looks, it looks sounds and feels like a bigger bike, more around the 600cc mark, which is great because when i pass my test i don't need to run out and buy a bigger bike, although i have to admit the gt650r and even the gt250r are very alluri...ng,

the top speed i've got out of mine was 74mph but i have to admit it was screaming it can get upto about 65mph confortably, it has great handling and seems to perform well in all weathers i do about 80-100 miles per week on it

i am a member of the uk owners club and if you own a hyosung we would love you to join there is regular meet ups and rallies, any many discussions taking place on the forum pop along and join us at http://ukhyo-ownersclub.co.uk Read Full Review
