2017 Hyosung GV250 Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown

Built around Hyosung's custom - cruiser motorcycle platform, the 2017 Hyosung GV250 utilizes a 249 cc (15.2 cu in) oil & air-cooled v2, four-stroke layout. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25 HP (18.2 kW) at 10,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 22 Nm (16.3 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 100.4 HP per liter and a 2,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (10,000 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 GV250 measures 176 kg (388 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.14 HP/kg (7.04 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 710 mm (28 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,515 mm (59.6 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 14-liter (3.7 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 2.94 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 476 km (296 miles) between fill-ups.
