Hyosung Gt250r
The Hyosung Gt250r has a top speed of 155 km/h, produces 28 hp and weighs 167 kg. Motoryk rates it 5.5/10.
La Hyosung GT250R fue presentada por el fabricante surcoreano Hyosung a mediados de la década de 2000 como una motocicleta básica orientada al deporte, y ganó popularidad en mercados como Australia, Europa y el sudeste asiático como una alternativa asequible a las bicicletas superdeportivas japonesas. Presentaba un motor bicilíndrico en V de 249 cc refrigerado por líquido, lo que le daba un sonido y un carácter distintivos en comparación con los de la competencia con bicilíndricos paralelos. El GT250R se destacó por ofrecer un carenado completo y un estilo deportivo a un precio económico, lo que lo convirtió en una opción popular entre los nuevos pilotos y estudiantes, aunque recibió críticas por la fiabilidad y las inconsistencias en la calidad de construcción de los modelos anteriores.

Lo que los compradores deben saber
Watch the Regulator
The voltage regulator/rectifier is a known weak point and can fail, causing battery drain or charging issues. Always verify the charging system works properly before buying used.
Low Resale Value
Hyosung GT250Rs depreciate significantly compared to Japanese rivals like the Kawasaki Ninja 250R, making them affordable to buy but harder to sell later. Budget accordingly if you plan to upgrade.
V-Twin Standout Feature
Unlike most 250cc beginner bikes that use parallel-twin or single-cylinder engines, the GT250R uses a unique V-twin layout, delivering a more distinctive exhaust note and torque curve for its class.
Generaciones y especificaciones por año
Lanzamiento inicial del GT250R con motor bicilíndrico en V de 249 cc, carenado completo, motor carburado, instrumentación básica y suspensión.
"Emociones baratas con sorpresas caras al acecho."
El bicilíndrico en V suena con mucho carácter para un 250 (ese ruido al ralentí engañó a más de unos pocos en los aparcamientos), pero los carbohidratos se agotan de fábrica y te rechazarán en tres meses o perseguirás un fallo de encendido para siempre. La suspensión es holgada e imprecisa más allá de las siete décimas partes, la parte delantera es de madera en la mitad de la curva y los frenos necesitan tirar por completo de la palanca antes de ponerse en marcha. El control de calidad era realmente inconsistente; en mi ejemplo, la horquilla tenía una junta que hacía ruido a los 4.000 km y el cuadro de instrumentos se empañaba cuando llovía por primera vez. Dicho esto, la posición de conducción es cómoda, la distribución del par en V facilita el tráfico urbano y la baja altura del asiento me permite colocar ambos pies con confianza. Es una auténtica fuente de confianza para los nuevos pilotos a los que no les importa tener a mano el número de un mecánico.
Pros
Contras
Se introdujo un estilo de carrocería revisado, gráficos actualizados, carburación mejorada, pequeños ajustes de suspensión y una ergonomía refinada.
Se introdujo la opción de inyección de combustible en algunos mercados, se actualizó el diseño del carenado y se mejoraron los componentes de frenado y la electrónica.
Reseña de un comprador usado
"Decent learner if priced right and bought carefully."
$1,500-$3,500 usedLook, the GT250R gets a rougher ride than it deserves from the internet crowd, but let's be honest about what it actually is. It's a Korean-built learner bike wearing sportsbike clothes, and if you walk in knowing that, you'll probably be fine. The 249cc parallel-twin has decent low-end grunt for city riding, the ergonomics are genuinely comfortable for smaller riders, and it looks the part without screaming 'newbie machine' quite so loudly as a CBR125. The problems are real though. Electrical gremlins are the GT250R's party trick — rectifiers fry, switches corrode, and wiring looms develop personalities of their own. Korean parts availability has improved but it's still nowhere near Japanese levels. Build quality is noticeably below Honda or Kawasaki equivalents from the same era. Spend time checking every electrical connection before you hand over cash. Buy one that's been properly maintained by someone who actually knew what they had. Avoid anything that's been thrashed, neglected, or modified badly — there are plenty of both out there.
