Hyosung GT250R looks a lot better than the Ninja and is fuel injected. ---

Do you have any experience with hyosung? I don’t, but neither does anyone else I know. Not saying they’re not good bikes, I just don’t know anything about them… so I don’t trust them. The ninja has an awesome reputation. ---

I forgot about the Hyosung. It does look pretty good, but yeah, the Ninja has a HUGE reputation for being one of the best if not THE best 250. Here is a video I watched last time I was considering a bike (like a year and a half ago): Seems like everyone is unsure of the Hyosung quality wise. ---

Buffalo^8](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/attn-newman-buffalo-8/37510/3): > > Hyosung GT250R looks a lot better than the Ninja and is fuel injected. don’t get the hyosung, my friend bought one brand new it was so shity, everything was lose bolts wear rusting on it when he got it home. Just don’t buy one they are cheap crappy bikes. I have a 98 250 ninja and the bike is a champ i picked it up for dirt cheap had low miles and i passed my road test and everything on it i love the bike. It won’t quit man i get 70+ mpg depending on how i am ridden it. Had it for 2 years now only thing i have done is tires and oil changes. You will get bored with the bike because you will want to go faster idc what anyone says, But if you are new and don’t want to squid it up stick with the 250 learn how to ride and control the bike then upgrade. Just look around online get a used 250 they go for 1500. or less G.l man ---

Well, if I get a bike, I will only be getting the new body style and a lot of them run around $3k still. Money isn’t necessarily an issue. Hell, I’d even buy a new one just to have the piece of mind knowing it’s history. Where do you people buy tires and such? Is there a tirerack for bikes (with scores, reviews, etc.)? I’m the kind of person who likes to scope stuff out way in advance and have already gone through the [motorcycle-superstore.com](http://motorcycle-superstore.com) site. They have tires, but there is no way to tell what’s good or not. ---
