Positioned in Hyosung's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2006 Hyosung GT 250 features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) v2, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 28.2 HP (20.6 kW) at 10,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 21 Nm (15.5 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 113.3 HP per liter and a 2,750 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (10,250 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the GT 250 measures 155 kg (342 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.18 HP/kg (5.5 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 795 mm (31.3 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 140 km/h (87 mph).
