    Hyosung is not a new company or even new to motorcycles in Korea. They are new to the states. From what I heard they are a little cheap, but most of the problems are coming from improper dealer assembly because they are not familiar with the bike, or just don’t care. A lot of people have called them the KIA of the motorcycle world.

    You might be right on certain points but the overall bike parts and system are not made of genuine resources. This is to decrease the bike’s price, in certain ways and act as a competitor to other bikes. My ol’bike had a competitor, same design except for a few changes but the material of which the cylinders and crankcase were made were no good at all. Better invest some $$ into something good and you won’t have to deal with problems later, I got my lesson! ^[email protected]#^& and btw, I heard suzukis gixxer had their parts from that company?

    I heard Hyosung makes parts for Suzuki too. But my Suzuki dealer denied that vehemently.

    Good to see I’m not hte only one with double (or triple?) posting issues.

    I don’t think Hyosung makes any Suzuki parts anymore. I’m not certain they ever did. I’ve heard conflicting reports on this, though in all cases they said Hyosung made stuff for the Asian market only (so no Hyosung/Suzuki stuff would end up over here). Their relationship has more been one of combined R&D.

    I think the “getting parts for hyosungs” is a bit overblown. A lot of that has to do with the distributor and dealerships. My local Hyosung dealership seems pretty on the ball, and no one has ever complained about them not getting a part in right away.

    The quality and lack of bikes on the road was/is a concern for me. Thanks for the response.

    Thanks but I’m not really a fan of sport bikes. I find this site extremely beneficial, useful and sensible. The attitude of “all the gear all the time” is something that fits with my mindset for riding. For all involved in maintaining this site, keep up the excellent work.
