- Power to the Rider reviews Hyosung GT250R.
At the time this video went online, India had only two 250cc bikes still existing in the market. The World class Ninja 250R, and the Single Cylinder CBR250R.
Garware motors decided to launch the Hyosung GT250R (Comet) in this segment. One may say its the only true blue soulful "sports" oriented bike amongst the three. How is it? Lets find out....

I still have goosebumps watching this vlog even after so many years.... those were the best days❤️❤️❤️.... watching it again on pandemic hours July 2020
Same in 2024 ❤
another excellent review guys, good detailed look and good practical info passed on. i am a little concerned about the suspension, especially after seeing the clip where the bike swerves uncontrollably upon rebound from hitting a rough patch. is it negligible or could it be a serious thing Hyosung need to work on because indian conditions aren't all that rider friendly. anyway, all the best to PTR, you truly are revolutionizing video reviews,
seeing your comment after 8yrs na 🙂
Seeing your comment after 12 years bro ❤ dino anna
Chance is the no matter where i am watching your videos from,m gonna watch it over n over again!! Wonderful compilations,great reviews and awesome background scores.You PTR guys are the best in business right now and definitely gonna make it bigger and better !!
You guys do the best reviews, honestly. To the point, nice camera angles, and fun to watch. Kudos.
Good old days !!!
here in 2019
Anyone watching in 2018? #PDArmy
Pranay KP wow , Rohan and sarge have changed so much. I have followed pd before it even had 1k subs. And
Me
2019
I'm watching in 2019 bruh
2020
Liked this bike so much that I was almost ready to go for it but after checking out the re-bound from the suspension..changed my mind...
Thank you all for the great review!!!
Am actually missing these kind of vedios for PD.. Plzz PD come back to this level. We miss this
When u said chances are you are watching this on hand held device coming from the same place as this bike... U were spot on. I was seeing it in my Samsung phone
you guys have so much passion :), this is what other indian bike/cars reviwers lacks.
keep rocking guys :D
Hope you have seen our new avatar aka : PowerDrift

Kudos to you for bringing out such well made reviews!! The quality of the videos makes me watch them over and over. Its great to see you guys wearing proper gear and sticking to lanes while riding (something other Indian reviewers don't give a damn about). However, even I am of the opinion that you should not have filmed passing vehicles from wrong side and riding at those speeds in traffic.
Who is the editor? your reviews make me buy all the bikes in the indian market. so damn cool!!! 11/10 :D. One of the best Visual Effects, editing, review..allover so good!
Great video guys. I bought a GT250 last month and am very pleased with it. Love the big bike feel over the smaller looking ninja 250.
Congratulations! And dhanyawaad ;)
Agar aapko hamara review pasand aata hain toh kripya isse apne dosto ko bhi dikhaye ;)
As owner of many sports bike, the GT250N and 250R included, i would say this review is very well made. I like it. Especially how u guys said big is better and compare it to India's lifestyle culture. Nice one!
Few things that should be included is the digital meter. Quick survey among existing owner will tell that the digital display is often problematic.Many of my fellow GT250R riders suffer the same issue. Going 80 Kmh while display showing 220++
This only happen probably after a year or two of usage. Never heard of this issue in Japanese brand bike.
Electronics wise, i guess some of the sealant around sockets is not that good. After a wash, often bike wont start. Also, EFI indicator lights often showing warning signs. There's a trick to solve it easily.
Gears are a bit hard to put to neutral. And riding position, true.. its really engaging for cornering. But try after 1 hour journey and above, your wrist, your back will have tremendous load. The tank is way to long. Not recommended for short people, unless the 250N or swap to higher handle for the R. Love the feeling but not the pain.
Engine is very similar to the Suzuki FXR 150 / FX 125 from the block up. It share the same piston, rod timing chain and tensioner guide as the Suzuki FX125. As for the block and head, the design is very similar but a bit wider and cam's equip with bearings.
Other than that I would agree to all your review. Love your comment on the forks too. All and all this bike does have some material quality issue. But the bike itself is really stunning considering how cheap it is. Personally I still choose this bike over the Ninja due to price and styling.
They were selling those bikes couple of times in Tesco selayang. 250 and 650. I sat on both of them even balancing them on my left hand by holding the left handle only by standing. They are very light. Very attractive bikes.
Is it true this is a little v-twin?
Dang..... very stylish reviews..... far more better than overdrive or any other news channels broadcasting with hosts with very limited knowledge on motorbikes. Great job!!
I'd not heard of PTR before... really enjoyed this nicely-produced and informative video. Cheers guys!
I think the GT250R looks cool :)
We are now called PowerDrift :) some more videos there as well!
Satyen Poojary I will check your new channel out! Thanks for the message
You guys are great ! Made a flawless review, thank you for sharing.
Hi guys, very nice review !! Glad to know also in India you love this new 2012 model and his few upgrades. I'm french and I'm annoyed because only the 125cc are imported in france... For a cost arround 25% more you can get the 250 who gives a really better agreement for the performance/weight and the size of this GTR. The 125 has only half of power and torque of the 250, it should be too frustrating and less suitable for that bike's style and her size for beginners riders who want to learn well in aim of upgrade to the 600cc class... I really hope it should be available in the futur under €4K like the 2013 Daelim Roadsport/VJF 250 (the best bike in this class after the Hyosung imo) or the CBR 250R whose the look and size are still too tight than these both korean.
Never forget to drive carefully and always with your protect gear on roads ! :)
We always count PTR fans as Friends of PTR! How can we not listen to our friends feedback!
What a good review and nice video editing with the music. Good job, guys! Thumbs up.
Do any of you realised this video was uploaded 4 years ago when the ninja 300 and r3 is not even out yet. and fyi, starting 2013, Hyosung actually rebuild their bikes (gt250r and gt650r and so on) and improve their quality. Yes, the older model are shit but with the newer model, I haven't heard any problem just yet. So, get the 2013 model onwards.
Congratulations for the video! I have one GT250R Black 10/11 and I just love it, despite several problems that some bikes have had here in Brazil I still love it because mine is perfect. I intend to get one GT650R as soon as I can...
I watch this in Everyday 2018.. This bike details really awesome.. Actually this slowly debit marketing.. But this was really unforgettable moments story details.. Love you all of one big maharaja
Now that's an INDIAN Review !!! Bang ON !!
You guys are the best bike reviewers and enthusiasts. .. I wish you could upload and come with more frequent reviews
love this bike i have an 07 gt250r with a screaming demon slip on pipe due to the lerner laws in australia i was stuck with a 250 and i have no problems with mine 33000ks on the clock regular maintenance and the old girl is very reliable plus it sounds amazing for a 250 only fault i have had is its slightly underpowered but its a 250 so its expected
I don't usually like these flashy, over the top type videos with all the music and that. But this was really good, thanks.
The best part about your videos are the intros. Could you please review the cbr250r please? And I believe these two guys in the video are the best and the one who says 'neenja' deserved to be kicked out.
Gr8 job.... PTR has incorporated the suggestions that people gave during previous reviews... makes us feel a part of the team.. :-) ......
Great review! I like the design, and there is no mistaking the hum of a V-twin engine. If they liquid cooled the engine with a radiator and fan, I believe the bike would be a favorite in many countries.
Thank you for a great review of my bike!!!! All true.
Is it any problem
The new PD vedios are sadly not come to this range.. This kind of vedios or reviews are best in that era and very informative and very nice to watch. Now reviews are not come to this level 😢
are bhailog kya review banate ho yaar.superb...main is bike ka PTR review ka wait kar raha tha...now i l get that beast..
The video presentation of your team is really brilliant and unique.keep on doing work like this.
a very good review of the bike. excellent. i own one and u guys hit the nail on all the pros and cons. the biggest pain in the ass i found with this bike was the less than adequate SHINKO tyres.
i have been looking for a year now on which 250cc bike to buy, and with this review its hands down im going for the hyosung
Gostei do video e acho que a Hyosung deveria vir para o Brasil.
You guys are 'Super Cool'.. the review is absolutely great.. I loved it.. A perfect package of fun and knowledge..
Great job PTR!!
Love how close he is to the wall at 0:41!
Insane videos guys! Please keep 'em coming more often.. :)
- Biggg PTR fan! :)
awesome background score, direction , presentation etc etc. this comes from a guy who has topgear(UK) episodes for breakfast. keep-up the good work. . one thing .. the scene transition graphics can be improved on esp the sound during transition.
Watching in 2020. Great video. Thanks
Speechless and truly impressed by style and charisma the review was given ! Hatsoff
finally its here!! from the day i saw a review at odmag and zigwheels i'm checking ur channel every hour for this review!!
one of few review that give a honest review rather than biased on kawa n honda n keep bashing on others bikes. thumbs up =)
Thanks! We hope you have seen all the PTR reviews :)
Hi guys....big fan....u give a fair review...and u never take sides in comparisions..have seen almost every video on this channel...but I am eagerly waiting for u guys to review a serious underdog..the apache rtr 180...I know...a bit old school and LS for u "neeeeenja" riders...but the boy has got potential...and deserves a chance....food for thought
the very first video which introduced me to powerdrift
hats off to PTR!!! the best channel over the internet!!!
brilliant review guys...Loved the way you guys made it so simple and yet exciting...Keep it up....I drive a hysung and pretty much agree with all the points you guys mentioned....
To do justice to the bike,I am going to download it on my Korean phone and watch it! It has digital diwali display!
Great video!
Cheers! -Nitro
Finally its here.... Superb as always guys... You Rock. PTR simply Rocks....
11.30.2020 im here for Sagar & fan Hyosung
Wow small channel with big edits how have I not seen this content?
A 2011 Triumph Daytona 675
But heed this, dont let anyone shun your hyosung. I'm very proud to own a comet for my first bike
Uff the cornering on this bike looked crazy. Pricing for hyosung is really the key here if it wants to occupy ninja territory. Awesome video guys!!!
Looks like a really nice bike. Probably a bit down on horse power a 250 cc 4 stroke engine can be tuned up without any probs. Heavier oil in the forks will cure the rebound.
its probably the best review i've seen of gt250r so far on youtube....i've been riding this bike for about 7 months now....it's simply awesome....it's an eye-candy....i m from Nepal n its priced at round Nrs 7,10,00 which is Irs 4,43,00 n gt650r is priced at around Nrs11,30,000 which is Irs7,06,00....vehicle tax is more here so it will cost 'less' in India...gr8 job guys...keep it up...:)
This review video had something different. Sagar dons a new A* suit, Roger stars for the 1st time and I liked how Ten Hut walked upto Kensha for mobile vs Ipad comparison,Less agressive background score too :P (pun intended). But seriously guys, loved the video.Great Job guys!!! Neatly done.
Awesome review. this just seems so well thought out and of an international standard. well done to the PTR team esp. the guys working on the video editing and music. great hosts. descriptive and helpful review. moreover you have interaction on your channel which none of the others have and this makes it so very impressive.
P.S. at 0:30 which AGV is that? does it have a name or something? please help.
PTR - let me tell you frankly that your all videos are just awesome but this one is the Best ... Awesome music.. hats Off to the director.. and i am sure that gt250r gonna hit market of Cbr250r as well as of kawasaki ninja 250r :)
I love PD and the journey of PTR to PD. But just look at this section 2:48 to 3:40 the kind of relatable explanations ten hut used to give is what I don't find in PD often now.
I do have a life and I did watch it on my desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile phone! :P
I got a 2016 gt 250r and I've owned tons of 250cc sport bikes and this is my favorite bike I've ever owned love everything about it, if you don't want yours ill take it😆
Awesome cinematography,great review..top notch guys!keep up the good work.Whats the song used?
Enjoyed this review alot my former colonial friends,uv got a new subscriber from england
You guys make superb review videos. I would rate you the best in India.. awaiting review on 2012 Ninja 650
Thoroughly agreed. That clip came due to the feedback from the previous videos where people wanted us to show how flickable is the bike in traffic conditions.
We do not encourage street racing! and willl fix that for good. No cookie for scarface for riding like that!
PowerDrift guys still as good 4 years back!
this one I feel is the best review so far from PTR Team. Thanks for the great work. The video "graphy", the quality, the sound , the picturisation is just awesome. You definitely put news channel reviews to SHAME.
What I also liked is that you have started to put humor into your videos, specially "BARA HAI TO ACCHA HAI". So , keep up the good work and thanks once again.
Thanks Mohsihummer!
Do remember to share the video on Facebook\Google Plus :)
I just bought a new 2010 hyosung gt250r...its my first bike and i'm excited to see how it handles...picking it up saturday :) Although I felt more comfortable on the Kawasaki 250 when I sat on it at the store, the hyosung just seems more like the bike for me.
Superb! Great choice there too!
The Daytona 675 is likely to be coming to India by this year end! So enough time to learn big bike manners on the Hyosung first and then upgrade to the Daytona!
Do remember to check our other videos too!
Ciao!
Ride Safe!
Best review ever ... suits us Indians to the core ...
need more reviews
Cheers PTR
nice vid guys, I'm from Australia and live in the country and have just got the 2011 model gt250r as a starter bike and I love it! its awesome through bends, is abit sluggish after 100kmh but it is a 250. your problem with the kick stand is easy fixed by sliding your heel down between shifter and peg. my rear seat doesn't wobble at all. I'm 6'2 and 110kg and find it pretty comphy to ride on. I recommend it as a starter bike!
better than any tv channel......kudos to u guys
keep doing this stuff.... world class..... will be eagerly waiting for the next vid
Hi Jayanth,
The underlying (subtle) theme to it was purely on engineering. We are glad that you caught the subtle theme and brought the topic up!
The Japenese have their edge when it comes to Electronics & Automobiles. The Koreans have done a lot of "rights" in India in the electronics segment. One would say so too with cars.
They are behind the curve as compared to europeans or the Japanese, but they are doing some progress. Can they pull off a Hyundai/Samsung? Time will tell!
well well well.....this guys made me proud being in India.
Hey ptr team,
All your reviews are fantastic... However it would be great if you guys put up a bio of your team on your website... Thanx n great job guys... Keep up the good work..
Amazing review guys. Also, Nice BG Track...What's the name of the goosebump awakening track?
the music reminds me to the SAW series movies soundtrack... great review, keep up the good job!
Good stuff guys! I loved comparing it to my GT250R video. Yes, yours was better!
Can you pls provide a detailed review on the 2016 Hyosung GT250R..??
Hyosung GR250R
PTR/ Powerdrift guys have always dissed the baby blade calling it a full on tourer. But now after owning CBR 250R for the last 3 years, I've to say that they are dead wrong.
CBR 250R is a tremendous sports tourer, there is no denying the fact. But it isnt just that. It is a versatile machine that can do city commuting, touring and cornering. Yes you read it right folks cornering.
CBR 250R was developed by its engineers as an approachable/affordable/versatile supersports machine with HIGH TURNING PERFORMANCE. That was one of its key design objectives. That's why it has got trellis frame, mass-centralisation and pro-link rear shock.
These vloggers may hate it, but it has been the people's champ all these years in the 250cc class.
GT650r or duke390
You guys seriously should make are review on the gt650r
Awesome review!!! Much much much better than any other TV channels!!!
The videos are well writen and well done And for some reason I want one of these bikes in America.
I'm a PTR fan. I love the way you guys review bikes. Just a small issue: Is it okay to include a clip showing the rider drive through traffic, passing vehicles from the left hand side along the way? It may be interpreted in a wrong way.
It's COMET and NINJA. Not COMETH and NEENJA! Decent review and the sections where it needs improvement pretty much sums up the review. Keep up the good work!
nice work guy. I have seen almost all of ur reviews and turning out to be a great fan of yours..PTR ROCKS \m/
thanks for shaing with us good review and nice video editing with the music
Outstanding program! Greeting from California.
Hey PTR boys, this review will definitely help the Gt250r sales :) Impeccable work done!
Do anyone know the music? I am dying to know the name. World class review which does not even become old even after watching it thousand times!!!
when you're gonna test "KTM RC 200 & 390" ??? i m too exicted to see the review of that bike and its speeed !!! :D
Very nice video ptr team, the starting part of the video looks like the isle of man india version ! :P
