==History== | |||
A cooperative agreement with [[Suzuki|Suzuki Motor Corp]] of Japan in 1979 helped it get its feet on the ground to where annual production approaches 200,000 units and it has a 40% share in its home market. It has imported small and mid-sized motorcycles to the U.S. for the past several years. Hyosung Motors & Machinery Inc also specializes in the production of automotive parts and components. | |||
Hyosung now produces 4 distinct motorcycle platforms, ranging from 250cc to 650cc. The [[cruiser]] line consists of what is perhaps the best entry level machine in the [[Hyosung GV250|GV 250]], as well as one of the most uniquely styled and best performing lightweight cruisers in the [[Hyosung GV650|GV 650]]. The GT line consists of Naked machines just dying to be customized into your vision of a true “streetfighter” as well as the best bang for your sportbike buck in the GT650R. All Hyosung motorcycles are backed by a 2-year factory warranty as well as a growing nationwide dealer network. All of the 2009 650 models are now [[fuel injected]]. | |||
