I also looked up a few vids on youtube. What I found out is that the bike is really big weighs around 180kgs and seating position is a little cramped for people above 6 feet, though there are adjustable foot pegs as well as the brake lever is adjustable. All this was about the 2010 model not sure if it's the same for the 2011 model.But I totally loved the way it looks, kinda like it better than the ninja.

^ def. it looks better than a nija .. no doubts about it IMO ..

YouTube - MCN Roadtest: Kawasaki 250 R Ninja v Hyosung GT250R
Had found this a long time ago...Well what I read from the comments is that the rusting problem was only present in the 2006-07 models and the later models have no such problems. People say that they like the hyosung better than the ninja and that it lasts way longer than 1 year as said in the video,

Guys. if looks could kill for under 2 L. G250r does it well @ 28bhp

Hyosung Bikes

i wish it does not get detuned.

edit: It weights 171 KGS DRY. AHH

Nice review done for both the machines but ninja becomes the leader in build quality.

**noah2125** · 03-31-2011, 12:23 PM

IMHO. the silencer on the Hyo looks puny compared to Ninja. and i feel the review is unbiased. Is it sane to expect a V twin to prodooce more HP than a inline twin ? but if it is priced right ppl wont mind the minor diff.

The reviewer says u can use it for a year in UK. does it any way transilate to 6 months in indian road conditions? or is it that i am over thinkin ?

^ thnak God that the reviewer didn't get a P220 to test or otherwise he would have said that this is good for only 6 months, but we all know the truth don't we ....

+5 to you....

fact is build quality wise Ninja scores...
now i asked many my colleagues who are in EU and US and most of them say .. its doesn;t make difference now .. as new models of GT250's are much better quality compared to few years back .. and even they suggest its good learner bike with price point of view ..

I can even see soo many comets on road now also playing without much prob ... and i dont think it will be prob .. in terms of durability ..

we indian's know how to utilize things to max

Just wanted to comment on the above part in your post.
Yes it is sane enough to expect a V-twin produce same or more HP than an inline.

There is no such convention that a V-twin produces less HP than inline or an inline less torque than a V-twin.
There are may parameters on which the characteristics of an engine depend which are way beyond just the configuration/alignment of cylinders.

Good video there but I find it a bit biased. Like nagoo said, build quality should be way better by now and IF it is for 2 lakhs, then its worth a go. Couldn't ask for a better beginner bike.

thanks R . on that note considering CBR250 prodooces 25 bhp and being a v i would expect [email protected] to fill the gap between Ninja250(33) and a cbr250(25). (BHP)

But actually, the hyo g250 prodocess 28.8BHP and its 5 kg heavier than cbr which makes 25BHP. so IMHO the weight is not gona make much diff for the additional horses. so on that stand point it sureley fills the gap.

BUT for sure,,, the cbr will make more FE becose of Single pot.

so the only selling point would be the price and the looks. and for a v-twin i dont think they can go below 1.5 L ORP. cos its not gona be ez to prodoce a v under that price.

if they sell for 2L. i dont think there will be many takers.

but I rilly wish this Dejavu for Hyo brings great success.

Twin disc's can't substitute ABS. If Honda says a single disc can lock up wheels, then twin disc can lock up faster. So less safer in that regard I guess.
