Its the RT125 flashing *new* on it. (half way down the page). Cool
to be honest i have fallen in love with it, and its only £2000.
i reckon it would be a good sand bike/verylight offroad/ road bike- any chance of some feedback on what u think, if i should get it or not.
seeing as your all very experianced with bikes.
Cheers Thumbs Up

Well for a start thats the Suzuki VanVan, Hyosung actually make it for Suzuki and they now sell them in the UK too albeit with a Hyosung badge on the tank.

I myself am looking to buy a Hyosung Comet GT650, it uses the same engine as the SV650 from Suzuki, and for £3999 OTR its pretty cheap!

The SV650 is £4349 OTR for a "proper" UK bike.

{ot}The SV is worth the extra £350 IMO, but I would also say that a second hand naked SV is a steal!

HTH Smile{ot}

Considering that Hyosung make the Van Van anyway, you may as well go for it.

It won't go fast or wheelie or anything, but it will be fairly good looking economical transport. Smile

That bike looks just like a TW125 :S

the only downfall of hongdou/kymco/hyosung is the low resale value Confused

The Yamaha TW125 is a much sexier bike.
IMO, that is why I have one Smile

0-60 would take you a while....
In the NSL twisties, I get around 55 at most.
On a nice bypass/dual carriageway that is flat, it will ride up to 63 or so.
A slight downhill will push 65.
A big hill will push 70+
But it takes its time getting there.
Not a bike for the speed freaks out there Laughing
