  • Man been reading this thread for the past 1 hour and well spent I must say Congrats melroyal on your booking. June is as close as it can get now I guess Man Hyosung GT650R is really tempting.

    About the Ninja 650R, its coming up on June 8th so will have to wait and judge on the pricing. I hope this thread fires up again. Interesting arguments there and TenHut's first post (emoticon) in this thread was funny.
    RIP Marco Simoncelli! You will not be forgotten!

    • Awaiting june

      @dharmana.You are right,the international spec GT650R gets 82bhp while the Indian specs gets 72bhp.Probaly due to the Government regulation and also of the quality of fuel available here.
      Overall quality and feel of the bike was good though.The bike paint job had a nice bright finish look to it.The GT650R chassis is of steel so is the Ninja650.The aluminium chassis are available on the 600cc Inline 4 cyclinder bikes.

      @pushkarb.Thanks for the wishes.Can't wait to get my hands on the bike.

            Got a call on 6thJune from Ronit Motors(manish) that my GT650R has come to the Bhiwandi warehouse.Once it reaches the showroom they will start with the registeration which will take 4/5 days.

            • Ninja 650R has delivered a death blow to Hyosung

              At last! Ninja 650R has been launched for an unbelievable 4.57 lakhs! I am sure they delivered a deathblow to Hyosung and Garware in India. Though the Hyosung 650 is equally good, neither hyosung or garware have the brand value and reputation of Kawasaki and Bajaj. But still...

              Looks wise, Hyosung looks way better(more sporty looking)
              Exhaust note again, Ninja 650R has an agricultural motor sound where as hyosung's got a racy exhaust sound to it.
              Power more or less both are same with 72 BHP, but Hyosung is 10-12 Kgs heavier than Ninja

              Its a tough choice to make.
