A huge beginner bike - Hyosung GT250R

 Hyosung GT250R

Hyosung GT 250 R is unique in its class. A 250 cc bike with the body of a bigger, 600, 1000 cc bike! That’s a great choice for tall people who are just beginning to ride on two wheels. No more skinny looks.

V-twin 250cc engine is very modern and runs smoothly. The sound is nothing you would expect from a small engine either.

Gt250R DisplayThe digital speedometer is easy to read. It has even a fuel gauge, which you can’t see on some expensive motorcycles.

Huge twin front disc brakes with dual twin piston calipers provide more than enough stopping power for the weight of the motorcycle.

The Hyosung V-twin 250cc engine was designed by a team consisting of engineers who have previously worked in the research & development teams of some of the big Japanese motorcycle companies.

As a sidenote, we would like to recommend changing the stock tires with a quality brand for much better road handling. The standard tires that come with the bike have excellent durability but safety comes first.

The Hulk of Supersport Bikes - Kawasaki ZZR1400

Kawasaki ZZR1400

Kawasaki is passionate about motorcycles. We thought the Speed Wars of the last century were over, but Kawasaki is back with a vengeance in the form of the Ninja ZX-14. Model names differ;  ZX14 in USA and ZZR1400 in Europe.

A manufacturer is defined by the motorcycles it makes, and the defining characteristic of Kawasaki motorcycles has always been power, lots of power. This, combined with their excellent handling qualities and overall balanced performance has made Kawasaki superbikes the most feared and respected machines in motorcycling.

Sleek aerodynamics, unmatched power, acceleration and stability combine to provide balance to Kawasaki’s latest Super Sport Motorcycle. Powered by an all new engine force-fed with Ram Air and fuel injection, the ZX-14, ZZR1400 churns out unheard of levels of thrust.
