I know im late to the party, just got your video recommended. Here some information for anyone considering these beauts. Older gen hyosung (2011 - lower) Get steering damper and bar raiser. Replace the OEM sparks with a decent compatible spark plug. Replace the tyres with anything grip2street related. Replace the chain with a stronger resistance chain Wind visior, replace with anything reflective/blackout as the instrument gauge cluster is very hard to see during the day. Clean and or replace any easy parts with the carb as these olders models tend to have issues with it first. These bikes arent twist and go, they have a slight delay but dear god the moment the revs hit 3.5 and up you'll be moving like a bat out of hell thx to that V-twin engine. Hyosung makes all Suzuki motorcycle/marine parts since the company started as Suzuki was an off branch company which grew quicker in the international market. Hyosung is also a very heavy bike. Even the newer gen models will give leg lock if you are to short or cant bare the weight. Drive safe, if you cant, drive like you stole it.
@@WulfZAall your feedback was wrong. 0 specifics you knew nothing about what it needed even tho you claimed you owned 1 but rode 3 different ones. Sounds like all cap 🧢 . 2 paragraphs saying literally nothing lmfao 🤣 I Ont even know what possessed you to pull that off 😩
I think you've got the early version of the GT650R, my guest it's the carburetor version. You need to retune the carburetor coz you have a racing exhaust installed, that's why it keeps popping.
@@bamboostick5 I would say all are pretty good, i would just look for a good deal on one and go with that, but try to find one that’s not carbonated. The one I have is and nothing wrong with it but I personally don’t know anything about carbonators
alright i'll look for one thats after 2013, I think the 2015 should be good enough? Also did hyosung change the design of their GT650R? I see two different looking bikes (atleast the nose) from different years One has some type of air vents at the front and the other doesnt, which one of them is newer? Which should I get? Both are 650 tho
I`ve had mine for 14 years, and she still runs well. But thats because I have changed everything. Brake disc, pads racing, exhaust two brothers, Michelin tires, better chain, all better fluids, K&N air filter, 93 only in the tank, brake fluid reservoir front, check the plugs, auto lite is the best for the bike do not use NGK it will F1 on you quickly.
curious as to how you like the Hyo. bought a defective one myself half a year ago, still working on it. swapped for aftermarket ECU as well for the purpose of modifying (gone ECUmaster). Looking very much forward to trying to ride is hopefully the up coming summer!
@@rayzecor I reckon it depends alot on your location. In Scandinavia it seems rather difficult, or atleast, expensive considering what it is (let's face it, it's just a Korean bike after all). I've gone alot of aftermarket custom personally, but stock parts is somewhat difficult.
@@rayzecor im not one to speak of the legal front of the custom parts, I make my own usually, and that's not legal around my place, but hey. Ones gotta do, what ones gotta do 😅
Id recommend not getting a Hyosung if you want something reliable. the electricals on the bike are Chinese grade, the stators and recifiers go frequently, the Facebook group I'm with has about 10+ posts about having problems with em and only a few ever get fixed.

You said a lot and didn’t say anything lmfao
@@atibaedwards6587 then clearly, the crux of this video "owning or wanting to buy a hyosung" with my feedback/input flew over your head.

@@atibaedwards6587 haha aaah if you say so. Whatever makes you sleep better at night kiddo. Goodluck in life and drive safe
I saw a cop and got nervous…. I felt that 😂

@@bamboostick5 get a fuel injected one, the oldest is 2013 model I think

Good bikes v twin even the 250 sounds the same as the 650

Hey, how hard is it to find parts?

@@hastrup2jz I'm in Eastern Europe, but if I can get custom parts that work and are legal, I don't mind. Long as it's not a hassle.
@@rayzecor im not one to speak of the legal front of the custom parts, I make my own usually, and that's not legal around my place, but hey. Ones gotta do, what ones gotta do 😅
What year is it, I love this bike I need one for myself!
@@ph6ntm it was a 2005, there fun bikes
What exhaust do you have?
