this is pretty cool. it looks like a modern 400cc sports. which we all need, if they ever invented one. assuming it goes as well as it looks, being hyosung and all....

 

and the 250cc version looks good too...

it looks like a proper big bike, and as long as it an at least keep up with a super4, this cld be serious.

[Blahhh]

Keep up with a S4? Not unless dat thing is a 2 stroker

[Hancur]

it is 2 stroke but i dont think it can keep up with a bike more than 3times its capacity. there are older 250cc and 650cc versions of this which looks almost the same only bigger. but i think there is a high chance that this could be better than a tzm?

[mechwira]

i was talking about the 250cc, which is probably 4 stroke, being able to keep up with an s4. not the 125cc model.

 

i dun think its too far-fetched to think that a properly tuned 250cc sportsbike can match an s4, even if it cant beat it. whether the gtr250 can do so i donno, i just think its not impossible.

[c4ble]

The HP for the 250cc is ~30, will be difficult to make s4 unless it's 2 stroke or you bore it up. Good bike for singapore use though, more than enough juice.

[Blahhh]

Yep, got to agree it be ok on SG roads. After taking a closer look, this might not be a bad bike afterall. For people who just passed, the bike has a 17L tank which holds alot of petrol (good for pumping in JB) and its location forces u to get into an aerodynamic stance, far more then the faster SPs and KRRs. Those inverted forks look sweet.

 

But with all those features, main downset is the non-existence power. I would seriously look forward to this bike if it's a 2 stroker. And it's 150kg, very heavy for those newbies.

 

For 250cc.. no comment. For most people, 2a = super 4. In a marketing point of view, it be hard for it to compete with the other 400cc sportsbikes and those 250cc 2 strokers monsters.

[Ah_Pet]

is this bike in spore already.. looks nice..

roughly how much will 125 and 250 cost?

the headlight look abit like baby haya..

all of which are slowly but surely disappearing from our roads....

 

face it, its main sporty rivals are only the s4 and gsr400, and maybe the cbx250.

[Blahhh]

Hmm, I agree with u there, it's competitors are old dinosaurs lol.

 

Aiyah, dey should just make a 400cc version and conquer the market

i know for sure the 250cc model is in sg already saw one in a carpark at yishun. but im not sure about the 125cc one.

 

as for the cost i got no idea. dun even noe where is its distributor. any owners care to enlighten?

it says 'gtr250' on the fairings? coz i've only seen gtr650 so far.

 

including at least 2 red gt650 (the naked version) with all all 'hyosung' stickers removed and replaced by 'ducati' decals. donno who they trying to bluff.

got to agree with u on the downset. this bike would be a major hit here if it is 2stroke.

yup GT250R on the fairings and hyosung on the tank black in color. lol ducati?? they could at least try suzuki. haha. i've seen a GT650 before but have yet to see a GT650R.

[khaitronic]

wow the bike look nice...maybe cause it the only new 2a and b sportbike...wonder y there is no new 400cc below sport bike made by the elite brand such as yamaha suzuki etc etc...or do they actually have hehe...

 

erm nowadays 2b and 2a bike getting slower ek compare to old bike...cause now no more 2stroke liao....kinda sad...

[c4ble]

Price was $7.5k at bike production one year ago. Not sure now...Recently saw 1 black one for sale on yahoo, but disappeared the next day....

went to the bottom of the site

its like not updated in 2years?

 

650 and 250 models are already on the roads but it states "coming '08" in there.

well i guess its cos in other countries there are no class 2a/b. so theres no point for the bike companies to make small bikes when people can immediately get the big bikes. they would earn more by selling bigger sportbikes. compare sg with other countries with bigger markets. well thats just what i think. who knows maybe a few months later a new tzm model may just pop out.

[c4ble]

I think they never update...cos gt125r just came out in the past 1years, definately not 05. Just pay them a visit.

[Hancur]

so its cfm that the gt125r is out already? any ideas how much it costs machine price or otr?

[pixeLFreak]

this bike probably can't beat 400cc...his brother GTR250 also cant liao...always jammed at highway...top speed..178km/h but after that the owner need to change the piston..huhuhu...

best speed is 140k/h...standard 125Z also can potong laa...

the main problem is the "killer switch"..

for 250cc, i choose Kawa ninja ZXR250 or CBR 250 than this Hyosung brand.

 

btw, in msia, we called it Naza Blade 250R...but i'm not sure if Naza's family want to bought this 125GTR...

 

i heard that most of the parts used in this bike are from Suzuki..is it true?

[mattman8881]

killer switch? care to elaborate?

[pixeLFreak]

killer switch? care to elaborate?

 

err..i dont have this bike but a friend of mine got this bike..

killer switch, as i know b4 this situated at the stand.

i dont know the main function.

 

the bike is running about approx 120km/h, then the killer switch is a bit goyang, and suddenly the bike will automatically off its engine..

[mattman8881]

i am riding a comet 125, the nearest thing that i can relate to is the side stand safety feature.. Side stand on, engage gear, engine will cut off.. its to prevent ppl from riding off with the side stand on.. so far, i have never encounter any of the killer switch that ur frd mention...
