Default xBhp Exclusive Video: Garware | Hyosung GT650R and ST7 First Impression!

We know that Garware Motors in association with S&T Motors is getting the Hyosung GT650R and ST7 in India. xBhp got this exclusive opportunity to ride and shoot these bikes before they hit the showrooms in early 2011.



For the entire review and photos please pick the xbhp Magazine December 2010 issue when it comes out!

Thanks to Niranjan and Gourab for helping me out with the shoot!

xBhp is the best when it comes to latest in motorcycling news. Excellent, I'm loving this.

Edit - Here're some thoughts of mine on the video...
- The review was very comprehensive for GT650, however, ST7 was almost not spoken other than its a cruiser
- Price of 650R, horses were discussed but were ignored for ST7
- Good points on Hyosung & Garware's commitents were discussed; would've been better if discussed little elaborate

Last but not the least, I would expect a review for ST7

Superb job there Sunny and Niranjan. xBhp truly rocks. Wish you had shared some pics here Sunny. Cant wait till the December issue hits the stands.
These bikes will surely be worth the wait. Cheers

That was short and sweet. Would have been better if you had made us listen to the sound of these twins though Nice to hear that it is going to be 4.9L OTR and definitely seems to be a very decent upgrade.

Frankly, it was nice... it was not perfect but it was honest.

I believe topics of discussion was not broken down into details before it was shot cause flow of the speech was not there to see, Pausing to look for words is a crime

... and i felt that there was a lot of background noise, need to eliminate them, viewers would like to hear you talk or the bikes growl!

this is just a start, it will only get better!

kudos! ... and yes, im waiting for second edition of xbhp mag!

I agree with shelton_jh about the engine sound and the exhaust note.

On the side note, i hope we have the permissions from artists on using their music for the videos. This might be a problem when xbhp will become really big. (which i have no doubt, it will happen )
