2007
The 2007 Hyosung GT250R was a fully faired sportbike aimed at riders seeking an affordable entry into the world of sport riding. Part of the GT series lineage, it offered a smaller displacement alternative to larger bikes. Direct competitors included models like the Kawasaki Ninja 250R, focusing on similar accessibility and price points for novice riders.
At the heart of the 2007 GT250R lies a 249.0 ccm (15.19 cubic inches) V-twin engine. This powerplant allows the motorcycle to achieve a top speed of 140.0 km/h (87.0 mph). The bike's dry weight is 126.0 kg (277.8 pounds), contributing to its maneuverability. Fuel capacity is 13.70 litres (3.62 US gallons), allowing for reasonable range. The seat height is set at 795 mm (31.3 inches) at its lowest setting.
The GT250R offers track-focused ergonomics, with a leaned-forward riding position typical of sportbikes. However, the relatively low seat height helps make it manageable for riders of varying sizes. Rearset pegs contribute to the aggressive riding posture. While not designed for long-distance touring, the GT250R is suitable for shorter rides and spirited weekend jaunts.
The 2007 Hyosung GT250R was geared towards new riders seeking an introduction to sportbikes, or experienced riders looking for an economical and lightweight option. Its approachable engine and manageable weight made it a solid choice for developing riding skills. While it may not offer the peak performance of larger displacement machines, its affordability and ease of use made it an appealing entry-level option.
