    • The GT250R for 2012 has a few changes from that

      Price wise, It is touted to sell at the price of a Honda CBR250R (Without ABS). This in world market. In India where it is safe to assume the CBR250R is cheaper (as its made in India) I guess a pricing around the CBR with ABS is a sweet spot!

        Changes in 2012 GTR ?? like what ? i thought 2011 and 2012 are the same

        if the OTR price is less than 2.5L .. that's more than enough for me

          How trusty the portal is?
          It says 300cc Kawasaki Ninja.
          Yes, indeed, and the way I highlighted was a affirmation of the craziness going around. That's the reason I highlighted, anyone game?

            • -- a general query --

              is this the revamped comet 250 released few years back in india ?
              Although the bike surely has some sporty and macho looks . Just a casual research says its fuel injected, weighs in 160k and can reach a top speed of 180k !! . So could be a good performance bike for those who are in-between a cbr and ninja in terms of budget.

              Also would like to know from you all how good and renowned a company like korean hyosung is compared to a kawasaki or honda ? Do they have any iconic product from their stables. please enlighten us

              anyways hoping for a quick launch here in india !!
              I prefer riding a slow bike fast rather than a fast bike slow !!

              • After enquiring the about the Comet 250GT (and not GTR) it was said at the pune hyosung showroom that the price is 2.70L there. Now that is expensive considering it fills the gap between CBR and NINJA. The price in Mumbai is something to ponder about !!

                  Apart from a few cosmetic changes and the new added fairing, the bike pretty much remains the same. And most of the chaps here, pray to god the 2012 is a fuel injected one, and not carburetted for the Indian market for cost cutting initiatives.

                  Hyosung is Korean and it's not a wise decision to compare Hyosung to Kawasaki or Honda. Yes I'm not a big fan, except for the 250r but then, it's a budding company and don't expect Honda's refinement and Kawa's reliability. It's somewhere in the middle, it gives what you want, and in the end of the day, it's what gives you that BIG WIDE SMILE right and Hyosung just exactly delivers that.

                  So yes, in that case, you can summate your assumption.

                  Cheers!

                      • @vj Thanks for reply buddy.

                        I had checked videos in youtube and found out that 2012 models are fuel injected. Dint expect they can release Carb ones for Indian market

                        But again its a premium bike, an eye candy for sure so as u said will bring those big smiles

                          Nagoo,
                          That is news. Red&white looks the best.

                          As per the FB pics are we not getting twin tubular frame chasis?
                          is this any better than the twin tubular one?

                          Also if they are getting bikes by may, y garware not making headlines?

                            Twin tubular frame is only for 650's and for 250's all over the world hyosung used Twin spar frame [as seen in the pic] which is quite adequate and it is better handler than Ninja [according to MCN review]

                            may be may 1st week they [garware] announce the launch.

                            Now i will be in confusion on colors is it Full red or red n white
