Hyosung GT125R & GT125 - Upcoming Motorcycle In Bangladesh. Hyosung Motorcycles are been imported in Bangladesh. This time we can’t mention the name of the importer due to business secrecy. On the other side we still don't have too many details about their plan & everything but we do have some idea about what products they will do marketing with in Bangladesh. We are almost certain that they are working with Hyosung GT125R & GT125. So here we are.

Hyosung GT125R & GT125 - Upcoming Motorcycle In BD

Hyosung Product Line Up in Bangladesh:

Currently we have seen two products lined up for the Bangladeshi market. That is Hyosung GT 125R & Hyosung GT125. The Hyosung GT125R is the full faired version and Hyosung GT125 is the naked one. Lets get more detail of the models.

Hyosung GT125R

Hyosung GT125R is the 125cc sports bike with two cylinder engine & the bike have 8 valve ( yes you heard it right), most high end sports bike in Bangladesh have 2 valves but this bike have 8 of them so the air & fuel coming into mix is more in the ratio. The compression ratio of the bike is high too hence the power output, the bike gives out 14.65 BHP @ 10500 RPM! and 10.2 NM of Torque at 9750 RPM.

Unlike many sports Hyosung GT125R have 5 speed gearbox with 110 front section tyre and the rear tyres are 150! But the most striking thing about the bike is its weight! The bike weighs 182 kg (with fuel & oil) GT125R is huge in size and it will be very difficult for small people to handle the bike if he is a rookie rider. hyosung-gt125r-feature Front suspension Hyosung GT125R are upside down & there is hydraulic adjustable rear shock absorber in the bike. Both the front and rear brakes are hydraulic with the front disc is situated on the left side of the bike. Both the piston on the front & back are duel calipers.

The bike's handle bar is straight like a rear sports bike, with a nice speedometer & many other warning lights on the dashboard. Tail light of the bike is LED while the indicators are bulb type but there is a grab rail on the back of the bike for better pillion comfort. The muffler is stainless body with no protector on it There are two headlights in the bike with one on top of another & are projection headlamp. hyosung-gt125r-specification
