2017 Hyosung GD 250 R Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Hyosung's sport motorcycle platform, the 2017 Hyosung GD 250 R utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke layout. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 73.0 x 59.0 mm (2.9 x 2.3 inches) with a 12.0:1 compression ratio.

On the scales, the GD 250 R measures 159.7 kg (352 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,346 mm (53 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
