To all the existing Hyosung owners:

Friends who owns Hyosung, please feel free to join this community for discussing any problem you have faced with your bike. We're not here to criticize the company but to find a solution.

So the rectifier issue has bit me as well it seems, all symptoms of it, being was running beautifully and then all of a sudden it failed to crank in the morning. I was already getting symptoms where the bike was unable to start when radiator fans were running and on sunday it completely died, jump started, rode but failed to crank again, so many rectifiers have failed, mine being another.

Sent a strong worded mail to DSK Pune and to my surprise got a call back within 10 minutes from Mr. A from Pune, he greeted me nicely and apologized for any inconvenience caused, i explained him everything and he has asked me to visit the service centre tomorrow morning at 10:30 where his technician will check things out.

Hoping that its just a small issue and nothing else, just had a chat with my friend who also has a GT and had the same issue as mine, rectifier was faulty in his case which was duly replaced, 95% - same is the issue with mine.

Yes am a pilot, maybe the misifiring was due to low battery voltage or something when the radiator fans used to kick in, maybe the FI system wasnt getting enough juice, lemme get the bike up and running and will then check for it again.
Thanks, will get it checked.

Hey guys .... trying to find hyosung gt250r owners for their rewiews but somehow only the gt650r owners threads come up ...do u guys know of any xbhp members that own the gt250r's ....am getting my gt250r in a few days and am just excited ....also wanted to know where i could get a tinted visor for the bike

hey thanks barkha

Bike up and running again

Visited the service centre in the morning at 11:30 and handed over the bike, within an hour they diagnosed that the rectifier was faulty indeed and surprisingly they had the said part in stock.

They removed the battery and it indicated 11.7 V which was put on charging till it attains 12.8 V, i was asked to go home if i wanted as i live nearby and come in the evening when they call after thoroughly testing the bike.

Received a call in the evening, the bike was all readied up but now the dealership's owner's brother who was there was confused if it was indeed a warranty claim or i had to pay.

I called Mr. A from Pune and explained him everything, he instructed the man that this was indeed a warranty claim but the guy kept insisting i had missed a service blah blah.

I was pissed to a point where my father had to raise his voice and finally say "i dont wanna argue with you, theres no point", the guy is really rude and doesnt deserve heading the dealership.

In the end, bike is up and running, am happy and thats all what matters.

Does anybody know when the newer model(2013) of Hyosung Gt 65or will be launched in India???

REPLY TO EAGLE EYE.... hey i dont think the 2013 model will be released in india anytime soon as they first go to the US(hyosung) and Brazil(kasinski)...but when they do it should be a real treat with the nissin brakes the slicker fairing etc etc

Yes it will be launched in US first.But, the 2013 version is already updated on the Hyosung US website.
So, Hyosung will be planning to bring it in India as well.

OK FINALLY got MY BLACK RED HYOSUNG GT250r from the dealership in town mumbai..... so here are my first impressions about the bike ....unbiased

1 looks just BLOODY amazing as soon as i started to ride from the dealership to my house which is about 40 kms away....at the first red light(signal) got a couple of people asking me questions as to what make and how much the bike was almost everyone on the road was staring at the bike and well that just felt AWESOME

2 This bike has amazing torque .... slight twist of the wrist and the bike just wants to take off , good throttle response

3 so i got onto the high way and wooooo hooo bike touches triple digits with ease...touched 110 kmph in no time and i didnt even feel that i was going so fast ...i like that (good aerodynamics) there were strong cross winds but the bike was firmly grounded and didn't sway at all.

4 Once in the traffic packed area of the city .... i did feel "my nuts start to roast" from the heat of the engine ...but keep in mind that it was 1:45 in the afternoon and well mumbai is freakin hot at that time...but still the heat wasn't that bad.

so to sum it all up from my first experience with the hyosung gt250r i would have to say that "its all about what the rider wants" no bike is perfect and as we are all individuals we all have our own preferences so for me the HYOSUNG gt250r is a WINNER ... i wanted a bike that looks and feels like a superbike with the riding position the look the size etc etc, yes it is a bit more expensive than the other bikes in the class but hey id pay the price for this bike any day ,it puts a smile on your face when you ride it

till the next update "Ride SAFE AND RESPONSIBLY" Hyo250rd

^^ sir.. update it in GT250R thread.

im now halfway on my user review ..will be up by monday

Hyosung - GT650N

Hi, This is Prakash.

I got my GTN recently. It was on Deepawali day, to be precise.
Once a dream ... now reality.

I am starting this thread, primarily to share my GTN experience with YOU Bikers.

I haven't been able to make time for riding activities recently.
Work, family & health have been keeping me away from my Korean Dragon.

Well, here I am, on a Saturday night (it is 11:59PM), typing these words.

But, before I move further, in word, if I have to describe this bike, I would use the word,
'MONSTER'

I hope I am not hurting its (or shall I say his, or her) feelings.
I'll explain this more later.


Bye for now.

Thread Approved

Nice bike...but: a thread exists since a year and a half about the 650 R.....
Is there any significant enough difference between the 650 R (racing) and 650 N (naked) models to justify a new thread. Same engine, same frame, etc...but one with fairing, the other one naked. Big price difference, but seems to me like if there were separate threads for Yamaha FZs and /Fazer, for example....
IMHO: should be merged.

Hi, thanks for approving.
how do i post to my thread?
Is there a URL / link to reach it?

some guidance would be great.

Thanks
