Hyosung split up with Garware motors and now they have partnered real estate major DSK group.This happened when they were going to launch their much awaited Comet GT 250R which had to be postponed due to this split up.They were going to launch the bike on 13th June and here it is.
Hyosung along with their new partner have launched Comet GT 250R at INR 2.75 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi).
The pricing is close to Kawasaki's Ninja 250R, we speculated it to be between 2-3L and it has definitely turned out that way.Certainly its pricing is a bit on the higher side compared to Honda's CBR 250R though the engine and other specifications differ in both these machines.Due to such high pricing an individual would any day prefer the Kawasaki Ninja 250R.It would be interesting to see if in the future DSK Hyosung localise the parts and bring down the price of the bike so that it stands a good chance in the already competitive Indian Biking sector.
This is the first release by the Hyosung-DSK joint venture, lets see how it fares in the already competitive 250cc segment.This launch is really a good news for Bike enthusiasts who now have more option to choose from in the 200-250cc segment .
The super-bike has been modified for the Indian roads in order to get the ARAI certification. Noise reduction, saree guard inclusion and other changes have been made to get the certification done.The bike looks very much similar to the GT650R just that the specifications change, so the exteriors remain the same but its totally a different body inside
The Hyosung GT250R is powered by 249 cc V-twin, DOHC fuel injected engine which is capable of producing 28bhp of power at 10,000Rpm and 22.68Nm of torque at 8000Rpm. With an overall weight of 171kgs, Hyosung GT250R can reach a top speed of 175 kmph.
Hyosung - DSK would have 18 dealers , the bike would be available in White-red, red-black and silver-red shades.It will be available in the showrooms in 5 days with 1 month delivery time.
So what are you waiting for, head to the nearest showroom to lay your hands on this beast.

So I suppose the on road price would be above 3 lakh rupees and it's such a same that it is priced similar to the Ninja 250r---
It will be somewhere around INR 3.10 lakhs (on-road)..
