    Now an ownership thread is a must!

    The tail of the GT 650R reminds me of the Ducati Desmosedici RR.

                Your post made me feel more like buying this bike. I am checking up reviews about this bike and videos so as to know about its look, sound etc. Till now its upto the expectation i have from a middle level superbike kind of bike.

                I mean my tight budget would not allow me for a R1 or Aprillia, but this middle level would do good for me Only servicing and spare parts are big issue seems to me.

                Can anybody share more about booking amount for this and about spares? I am in jaipur and called up to gurgaon showroom of Garware motors. They asked me for 1 lac as booking amount and 20 days for delivery.

                  Dude even I also fanatic about the R1, but being fanatic is one thing and able to make your fancy come alive is a completely different ball game. The Hyosung GT650R would keep you engaged for years together with it's steam and zest. About the service and spares.... well Garware Motors and Hyosung, both are in their infancy and it's understandable that the service and spares availability would be a bit of a compromise for the time being. But knowing the Gurgaon dealership, I'm sure they would be doing their best in this area.

                  I'm not sure about the 20 days delivery period (it would be amazing if it's actually a 20 days), but yes the booking amount is definitely 1 lakhs

                  So, cheers to your future buy and ride safe.

                    Yes , booking amount is 1 Lac from day one , No changes till now and waiting period is 15-20 days .

                    BTW in which color are you intrested , After too much digging i have finalized White . Might book one pretty soon if funding issues are sorted.

                      Well said, costs makes to step back many times. Hysoung seems really perfect one this time to show, to ride , to enjoy. Jaipur also have no so much long and clear roads to go long way and enjoy those big liter class bikes. My office is also just 7 kms away, so weekends will be only choice at the coffee shop after a ride.

                      I hope spares would not come out as issue, as i already have enough issues like double mind to whether buy this bike, buy a new car(just because i hate rains) or use money somewhere. And also because GHARWALE dnt want me to buy such expensive bike.

                      They told me booking amount is 1 lac. I am confused what to do as they asked me to come and check the bike in flesh. Now that's big story. First have to go to gurgaon, just to have a look at bike and than have to make payments. Again will have to go back for bike delivery, and have to get it back riding all the way. A new bike, riding it almost 300 kms, that's also on very first day when engine is trying to open up.

                      Lots of load....!!!

                      Why don't they open a showroom in Jaipr or why didn't Hyosung joined hands with some settled company like kinetic, TVS etc. Grrrrr

                      BDW are you also going to buy this bike soon and thanks.

                      Red- black combo looks best to me. No other color is worth and buying a white may hurt . Someday some one can point it and say "hey, see its modified KARIZMA ZMR" Grrrrr or "copy of hayabusa" because of its front.

                        last month when I checked with Vishal (Hyosung-Gurgaon) told me it's 50K only.
                        Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

                          It has fantastic performance.I consider it a big jump from the 150cc bike I have had earlier.You just need to slightly open the throttle and its zooms to 100kmph.

                            Hey bro , come to Gurgaon and check the bike in flesh only then you can find out about bike proportions.
                            White is my choice becoz it's a metallic color and has that extra shine to it, it feel as if it goona last really long , rest of the color are solid color and doesn't look good to me ( no offense to ppl who bought bike in other colors)
                            I guess color preference is subjective here and it will differ from person to person , What matters most is the overall package which is very promising.

                            and I don't care about what ppl say , it's my bike I should like it ,It should bring big smile on my face when I open it's throttle . Let other ppl live in karizma/hayabusa shell. Let them be happy .

                              Oh is that so? But how is it possible that only white comes in metallic and rest do not? Definitely color choice depends on person to person.

                              And yeah, no body else can understand the feel of biker about his/her bike. Its just that you should be satisfied with the bike, whichever way you are taking it, nobody else matters than.


                              Hey , melroyal, can you confirm your bike is metallic one in color or just a simpler one? How about the engine sound, it is loud like liter class bikes?
