I had never even heard of these bikes until recently. They seem to be a small up-and-coming motorcycle company. This will be a 2008 model It has a 650 V-twin (the same motor used by Fischer) The Hyosung GT650x The biggest thing is price... The current Hyosung GT650 has a msrp of $4999 The GT650x shouldn't be much more. (Message edited by Not_Purple_S2 on April 17, 2007) |

Cheap track bike. I wonder if it has enough power to keep up with an SV. |

That's actually pretty cool. Most experts have described them as an unrefined, buzzy SV650. That's not so bad. |

I read a review of the GT650 about a year ago. The Suzuki SV650 was much more bike, and not that much more. They said the typical stuff about a Korean make, harsh motor, weak shifter, some fit & finish issues. Other than that, the bike was a competent motorcycle. |
