At the heart of the 2008 Hyosung GT250R sport motorcycle, Hyosung features a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) air-cooled v2, four-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a 9.6:1 compression ratio.
On the scales, the GT250R measures 168 kg (370 lbs) dry. Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 780 mm (30.7 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,435 mm (56.5 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 17-liter (4.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
