Have you seen this before? Hyosung Motorcycles

Has anyone seen this yet? Looks alot like an SV650. Hyosung is one of the largest and most respected companies in South Korea, and was founded in 1952. Hyosung Motors & Machinery Inc was established in 1978 as a motorcycle manufacturer. In 1979 a technical tie up was established with Suzuki Motor Corp of Japan for producing Suzuki models for some Asian markets. Hyosung established its own R&D centre in 1986 to develop models under the Hyosung brand for export to global markets under the banner "Made by Hyosung, Ridden by The World". 12% of staff are engaged in R&D to keep pace with aggressive development of new models suitable for export markets. Hyosung produce some models that carry a Japanese brand name that are exported worldwide, and components produced by Hyosung can be found on several other brands of motorcycles.

The cycle canada reviews on some of their other models was BAD!!! I am hoping for the company's sake that they are fixing the quality control issues. If they were cheap enough they could be fun for racing in the SV650 class......

OOOOFFF!!! STAY away! Those things are the biggest lumps of crap you can buy. Their cheap price will lure some, but their quality will keep them from coming back. My friend is an MSF instructor and her school uses a few of their smaller cruiser type bikes. Nothing but problems.
