2012 Hyosung GT650

Wild instinct.

Comfortable ergonomics with power to spare – our best performing sportbike is also available in naked trim. The GT650 is nearly identical to the GT650R but with minimal bodywork and a less aggressive riding position. The GT650 naked is all about serious performance AND serious comfort. It all starts with a rigid chassis, adjustable upside down forks and rear shock that gives precise handling and feedback. The 650cc 90-degree DOHC 8-valve fuel-injected V-twin engine delivers peak power and a broad usable power band. A new headlight and black exhaust add to the aggressive sport bike styling while European-style upright bars and standard seating position make the GT650 a do-it-all motorcycle.

The 90 degree V-twin has been taken to the extreme to ensure the ultimate rush. Blistering performance is harnessed in a bridged box frame with all the features advanced technology has to offer. Any enthusiast in the world will be proud to take it to the roads in style.
