Hyosung GT 650
2014
2014
The 2014 Hyosung GT650 is a middleweight naked bike that offered an affordable entry point into the 650cc class. It continued the GT650 lineage, providing a budget-friendly option for riders seeking a sporty experience. Competing directly with models like the Suzuki SV650 and Kawasaki ER-6n (later Ninja 650), the GT650 aimed to attract riders with its accessible price point and v-twin engine configuration.
At the heart of the 2014 GT650 lies a 647.0 ccm (39.48 cubic inches) V-twin engine. This powerplant generates a respectable 66.9 Nm (6.8 kgf-m or 49.3 ft.lbs) of torque at 7250 RPM, providing ample power for everyday riding and spirited acceleration. The fuel tank holds 17.03 litres (4.50 US gallons), offering a decent range between fill-ups.
The GT650 offers a fairly upright stance suitable for longer rides. However, the seat height of 831 mm (32.7 inches) might prove challenging for shorter riders. The riding position is a compromise between a fully committed sportbike and a relaxed cruiser, making it versatile for various riding conditions. Suspension is fairly basic, geared more toward comfort than track-focused ergonomics.
The 2014 Hyosung GT650 appealed particularly to new riders and those seeking an affordable and manageable middleweight motorcycle. It presented a cost-effective alternative to more established brands in the same class. While it may not have offered the same level of refinement or prestige as its competitors, the GT650 provided a competent and engaging riding experience for the budget-conscious rider.
