        • dunno, the thing that charges the battery.

          anyway, the wire inside it was broken, hence there was no charging, joint it, and voila, working like a marvel

                    • How Hard to source Spares for Comet 250

                      Hey Guys, with my hunt for a 250-600CC naked bike still on... I would like to know how hard is it to source part for a comet. are there any sites that you order from or you can find one in town side shops?

                      Mumbai Comet owners please reply.

                      • Online, you can order it direct from Korea. Pretty much the cheapest option even after including duties you may have to pay. You can order from: hyosungsource.com

                        In Mumbai bacchoo motors keep some stock of clutch plates and some minor parts. Not everything though. You should check with them

                          I'm from bombay. Hyosungsource.com is the best place to order. I've ordered many times. No problems at all. I am contemplating selling my comet gt 250. I feel like making it into a cafe racer and then selling it. :-) great bike by the way. If used carefully, it is a minimum headache kinda bike.

                          • RE

                            Comet Stopped selling in 09 if i am correct, so should i look for an 09 model to be safe or any would do as long as its maintained well...

                            should i look for less than 10K kms one? or is that too much to hope for

                            as if its over 15K kms i think i will have to spend a few thousands in repairs / spares?

                            Which tires does the comet come with?

                            I think i have a seller lined up, he has a 04 model, Not sure about color / kms done, will find out by afternoon.

                            Update: saw the Bike last night it was an 04 Yellow Comet. the meter showed it had done only 9K kms which i am 100% sure its over 25K. The Engine sounded like its has hundreds of loose parts inside & and sounds of piston brushing the side wall was evident. Before checking the bike, I went to Youtube to listen to each engine sound of the GT 250 and the bike i saw was completely F'd up. Plus the RC book indicated it was Black originally & owner repainted it to yellow , still the owner had the balls to as 1 lacs for it.
