    Lol, Nah, I was just tired. It was a long day. My wife says I have very "Stong" facial features (whatever that means) that make me look pissed off all the time.

    You don't want to know my opinion. lol I like colors.

    I would go with red rims, red rims with a white lip. If you did your frame a different color you could have lots of fun and get really creative.

    lol, I had to think about this one. Ive only ever see 3 hyosungs on the road. not bad bikes. cheap. but from I heard talking to the owners, they are pretty reliable. I believe the 650 uses the SV motor. not sure about the 250 though.

    looks like you got a great starter bike. I commend you for not jumping on a yzfgsxzxrcbr1000 for a first bike like so many other people do.
    have fun, be safe, and wear your damn gear.

    The GT650R gets ok press from the British mags. I'd still take a Jap option over it.

    I would definitely too, but this is definitely a good option for beginners who just need something to learn the ropes on.

    Yeah. I have only been riding for about 4 years, so I am still a little new to it. I have taken all the safety courses and stuff like that but in reality, it just takes experience/time and to learn the limits of your bike and not to push them. I am very happy with this bike. It has plenty of get up and go for a 250 (its got 30 hp) and Im sure eventually, I will pull the 250 out and put in the 650 but im not gonna be doing stupid shit on it. I cant afford anymore tickets (or my company truck will be taken away).
    Do any of you guys ever get together and ride or anything?

    Haha, I knew I would get someone like that. It is a real bike (obviously). Maybe I cant afford a GSXR or a busa but damnit atleast I can still ride. I dont have to go 200 mph to enjoy myself like some people have to do. I just like to cruise through the mtns and enjoy the senery and I can do that perfectly fine on this one. Im sure later down the road when I have plenty of money in the savings, I will probably upgrade but this one works perfectly for now.
