    In an alternative world, this bike could be coming online out of production in China through Yinxiang, that could be possible at some juncture? One that should be or could be approaching?

    Yinxiang is an OEM for Hyosung and very likely for its 125cc engines, I believe? They may manufacture their dual sport?



    Here is an Image of a Comet 250 branded Yinxiang….so the connection to Chinese manufacturing exists, but does not seem to have evolved. That venture may have been ill timed?

    A lot of development in this GD250N. The engine appears to a stressed member of the frame.

    It should be the fastest 250.

    I also like the adjustable foot-pegs/rear-sets.

    Hi

    It will be available soon in iran and it impressed me a lot ,after many years of experience in building air/oil cooled single and V twin engines with suzuki technology what should we expect from a new born LC engine in corporation with an indian company since they are pretty successful working with KTM (duke 125.200.390) kawasaki(ninja 250.650) and also new pulsar 200NS all by bajaj.

    Hyosung has a terrible dealer network in the USA.

    They do not exist? Or are what you could call 2nd or even 3rd tier.


    Bigger is not always better, however if a dealer has a large operation they do have a reputation to defend and in that they try to stand behind what they sell. If they are struggling for their existence they may not care about your issue or they may simply leave the market as in the close up.


    Manufacturers do not sell to consumers they sell to dealers, if the dealers will not buy them you should wonder why.


    If the first tier refuses them, then they go to lesser and in that they make bad partners in some cases. The result is a terrible dealer network.

    KR Motors

    The GD250N and GD250R will be offered in the USA for 2015.

    Prices TBD and likely will be under the Honda 300 and KTM Duke 390, which are both @ a MSRP of $3,999.00

    Access to the consumer with full set of benefits, that being service and support. That is what distribution is, it is not about selling factory direct, that will always fall short as support does not truly exist. Neither does warranty as that has to be backed with an actual identifiable local physical entity. That being a local dealer that is obligated to resolve any warranty claim, under the local laws of which they operate within.

    Hyosung does have a dealer network, unfortunately it is not strong in the USA, it is weak. A dealer network that is strong has real actual outlet committed and supported by the factory.

    "Racer Cruiser" RC 250 LV - http://racer-motors.ru/catalog/motor...uiser_rc250lv/

    OK, looks like "Hyosung's" V-twin, but I doubt that this HD V-rod-wannabee (or it's engine) is made in Korea.



    One more mystery....
    Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

    162,500.00 RUB = 2,951.24 USD

    Racer uses Yinxiang as an OEM, their RC250LV is based off a Hyosung GV250 engine and that seems to be a modified GV650's frame.
