It is very funny that you thought only an engine makes it a tourer bike.Originally posted by captain koli View Postwell both bikes are 650cc and gt650r has a suzuki sv650cc bike engine which is again a sports tourer
just because its got a split seats and clip on dont make it a supersports bike its more like puttiing a bajaj avenger engine on a ninja 250r but if gt650r had a i4 engine then it would have blow the n650r away
but cool it dude u enjoy ur baby
and just the case if ktm duke 690 came at 4 lacs then it would blow both gt650r and n650r 
It has more to do with the ergonomics of the bike(seating posture/comfort for long drive) etc. It's a fact that avenger also is a cruiser(may be mini ), even though it uses the same engine of a P220.

Exactly!!! So no matter what we select few so called enthusiasts debate on what is a better bike, people will (atleast initially) buy what is a better looker.
That surprises me why the Ninja comes in ONLY one colour!
But then an educated tourer will not even look at the Hyosung with the Ninjas pricing... and he is the ideal customer to have as
1) He will stay alive with the bike
2) He will 'show it off' to a more matured market
3) He will be happy with his choice
Similarly there will be a market for the GT too... it may not be a tourers segment but a enthu 'sports bike' fetish segment!
But a little time down the line with garwares initial teething issues I think Kawasaki will inch ahead!Leave a comment:

Can someone name this the Ninja 650 vs the Gt650 thread!
Reminds me of a old joke! Where a man gives 1000Rs to each of the women he is dating..
One saves it for long term
One invests it thier future
One uses it for shopping
One uses it for calculated speculation and makes a million out of it
Guess whom the man marries finally?
The Answer to the question is very similar to the TA's choice of a 'better' bikeLeave a comment:

Blame the stacked headlight styling of the Hyosung. People will inevitably compare it to the Busa because of Dhoom. "Badhiya dikhti hain yaar! Dhoom bike lagti hain"Originally posted by darkknight View Postmostly none are as intelligent or as informative as people here--
a real life scene where a GT650 & a ninja 650 standing together -- almost all people enquired about the GT while many dismissing the n650 as modded up version of n250 else not noticing it at all
height is when 2 people actually went & confirmed booking the GT at pune showroom -- so see where this will go
& again a difference of some thousands for what is offers is also ok.
And the split headlight design of the Ninja 650R will be compared to the R15. And the general poser public has already detested R15.
And after they hear the sound, it will be end of the debate.

Agreed. If we have substantial information to base our "argument" then lets do it objectively.Originally posted by xionite View Post
Example - quality of plastics are way better on the ninja than on the hyosung so i wonder why hyosung is charging a premium or how did they arrive at the pricing, etc.
This instead of just saying, hyosung is a dead duck with the ninja's killer sword.

yes. sure. but...Originally posted by n_aditya View Post
it's also not nice for Hyosung to price the GT650R at it's current pricing.Originally posted by n_aditya View Post
it IS overpriced. (you own a N250R. you know Kawasaki's fit n finish.)
(i'm hoping you've seen the GT650 in the flesh.)
Hyosung (for right now) can only dream of competing with Kawasaki in quality.
and Garware pricing the 650 at what it is right now...
is them being way too cocky.
why? coz there aren't any real choices for buyers... yet.
The GT650R will sell at it's current pricing... sure.
but it's not worth it's (current) price-tag.

ok agreed lets all sit back and enjoy the bikes and lets hope we get the i4's supersport in sep-oct 2011Originally posted by n_aditya View PostGuys, please stop flaming the GT650 with the introduction of the ninja.
For long we have been cribbing that we have no performance bikes in India and now when companies make an effort to introduce bigger machines, its not nice for us to flame them.
The Ninja is good at what it does and so does the Hyosung. Agreed it may not be as flamboyant and flashy due to its roots (korean brand etc.) but if the bikes sucked, they would have become extinct years back.
Did you know that Hyosung used to supply engines to the Japanese bike manufacturers not long ago?
Lets enjoy the way the markets are opening up.

well both bikes are 650cc and gt650r has a suzuki sv650cc bike engine which is again a sports tourerOriginally posted by men_in_jean View PostHa ha @captain_koli: If you know what sort of bike you want then you will know that nothing has been blown away. N650 and GT650 are 2 different bikes with diff purpose. The former is a sport-tourer, mainly for touring/long commuting and the second is more sportive and a lot superbikish!. If you are a person who desperately wanted a 600+cc bike for touring purpose then it is the N650. GT650R was never an option.
Just a case, If KTM 600 was launched at 4 lacs then it doesnt mean it'll blow up N650.. diff bikes.. diff purpose.. diff price.. just because its got a split seats and clip on dont make it a supersports bike its more like puttiing a bajaj avenger engine on a ninja 250r but if gt650r had a i4 engine then it would have blow the n650r away but cool it dude u enjoy ur baby and just the case if ktm duke 690 came at 4 lacs then it would blow both gt650r and n650r
