But having ridden the KTM 200 Duke, matching its low and mid range would be a tall task for the GT250R. One also has to see how vibration free will the GT650R be at high revs.

Can't comment on the P200NS and the GT250R for obvious reasons of not having ridden it.Originally posted by L.P. View Post

What is it with the Exhaust though? Can't they design a good looking exhaust at all for their GT's??

sir..this is 650 .. notice the twin spar tubular chasis .. its same as ur bikeOriginally posted by Sunny View PostHot from the oven in the Korean assembly lines, these 250Rs are supposed to be heading for Australia and India!

And it is gonna like this, drop dead gorgeous! Lets hope they price it correctly!
..
and these 250's suppose to be assembled here right ??? or they come as CBU ?? and wt abt localization of components ... if they brought from koria ??
as said by all its air+oil cooledOriginally posted by giridhar View PostLooks HUGE
is it air-cooled
I can see cooling fins
u have competition here then i was waiting for it from last 2 yearsOriginally posted by shadcool786 View PostIf this bike hits India, I will be one of the first people to go book one and grab it asap.. This bike surely will beat most bikes in 250 line stock... priced under 3 lacs this will beat most other ones..
never take word of foreign mag comparison seriously , let wait for our own journo's reviews and mainly i can depend on Xbhp reviewsOriginally posted by doc_x View PostHonda CBR250R vs. Hyosung GT250R vs. Kawasaki Ninja 250R | MC Comparison - Motorcyclist Magazine
This review says GT250r is all show and no go.... Ninja250r being the best quarter-liter sportbike.....and CBR250r being the most practical and best VFM.
Lets see how the Indian Auto Journalists review this bike.
+1 and BTW 28BHP is not bad eitherOriginally posted by payeng View PostNot everyone cares for performance..
..there would be many who would be blown away by its BIG BIKE looks at a price which I guess would be less than that of the much compact Ninja 250R.
i read somewhere its 172kg anyway only down point is 5 gearsOriginally posted by MG View PostThis bike will sell because of its looks but little disappointed with the specs. Things which are missing in the above mentionedf specs
Weight: 188kg
Transmission: 5gears
Max power: 26hp
Probably will be priced around 2.2-2.3lakh
i read somewhere that 2012 model has some tweeking and tuning apart from that its similar to 2011 modelOriginally posted by Nithesh View PostLast Year the GT250R recieved quite some negative remarks from magazines world over for the quality, vibrations and not being able to throw in all the horses on the road.
Is this the 2012 version or are they selling us the older models now?
Somethings to ponder about:
How will Hyosung sell this thing with their limited dealership in this country?
Would the spares be affordable or will it be just another Ninja where the initial cost is managable but the cost of ownership and spare parts blow a hole in ur pocket?
now garware has 13 showroom across india [from there website] and as they said a year ago they are on target
according to me Ninja is around 70K over priced , and now this can fill that gap.. idially now 250cc segment has divided in to 3 now with thisOriginally posted by Ulti Racer View PostWhoa,above 2 lakhs for a bike with carb and 5 speed is too much.From specs it is not worthy.But big bike looks surely will find some owners.Hope hyosung gives price worthy features.Hyosung got a killer pricing for 650N(with discount).Hope they will replicate it here.I am not sure NINJA buyers will look to this as from reviews ninja is way superior in handling.According to wiki this bike has top speed of 175kmph and FI is introduced in 2010 in brazilian market.Anyway good to hear the competition is growing and according to reports this bike may be launched by end of march.
ru kidding ??Originally posted by ABikerAtHeart View Postlol.. 2nd that..
Why not buy a P220 and fit a full-fairing then?
Anyway sir ur KTM wil be there already by that timeOriginally posted by payeng View PostCan't comment on the P200NS and the GT250R for obvious reasons of not having ridden it.

Overpriced it might be, but still the Ninja 250R is worth every paise.. the engine + handling on the Ninja 250R is simply awesome.Originally posted by nagoo View Postaccording to me Ninja is around 70K over priced , and now this can fill that gap.. idially now 250cc segment has divided in to 3 now with this
Not without reason it is called the best 250 cc in the world.
So there has been a chage in chassis on the 250, but then the pics posted by Sunny on the first pages show two different types of frames on the GTR and R Comet/Comet R.Originally posted by aargee View PostNo confusions!!!

Well, that should not happen; even if it does, a disclaimer should suffice; in the absence of disclaimer posting an irrelevant pic for a text, add to that following mishaps (hope BAL doesn't see these) ...time to move onOriginally posted by nagoo View Postimage is of 650 and for color illustration only

In my strongest instinct, it is still a pic of Hyosung 250ccSkill is what keeps you on a Motorcycle
