if it's a garage-sale price and in the condition he claims, could be a steal, maybe some goon can take advantage (or buy it then resell it to me!)

It's not used much if at all so it gets a pass in my book. It looks like the dude tried to make it track oriented at least. Not too much use for one there. Especially when he went and upgraded the front brake setup with the R6 stuff.

Indeed. The last couple years of their models haven't been as trashy, but I wouldn't get anything Hyosung of that vintage. The fit, finish, QC, and support base are/were total poo poo.

A mate of mine had a 250 Hyosung, 2009 model I think, he was fairly happy with its build quality, I wasn't overly impressed with it myself, but he seemed to like it.

I wonder what the story is with this. All caps and sparse details, claimed 200 miles but no confirmation dash picture. Dealer plate says Wilson's Motorcycles, looked them up, not a Ducati dealership. If it has really been sitting for 5 years maybe it's just bad gas. Maybe I'll throw out a mega lowball offer and see what happens. What questions should I ask if I call the guy?

I'm kind of glad I haven't sold the VLX yet... if I had just been infused with a couple K of cash I might be taking a trip to Ohio for a beautiful bored out 80's bike loaded up with the finest 2000's parts. That thing has to weigh <500lbs... what an absolute rocket if those dyno numbers are true. I would love to see what it might do with a NOS shot.

Ignition cutoff doesn't kick in until 14500 RPM on that bike. That, and the optimistic speedo (~10% over, so indicated 50 would be about 45 actual MPH), might get him close enough.

"Only runs with the choke on" makes my eye twitch, though.

I'm dumb. Excuse all that poo poo before. I forgot to change stock redline to 14.5k which means it redlines at 40mph at stock gearing and 50 when you go 2 down / 4 up. I think you'd rape your clutch trying to take off with that gearing within the first week of owning it.

E: Wait gently caress, I forgot to change stock redline to 14.5k. I'm retarded, excuse that pic.
