has always looked interesting, but they've been threatening to produce an actual bike for at least 3 or 4 years now?

(...and I would much rather see the real SV engine in it of course)

Distribution has commenced...

Distribution has commenced...

will you be carrying it?

[bmrider]

Nice looking bikes at a decent price...

Do you know anyone that's actually ridden one?

You gonna become a dealer?

[Hauptman]

cool bike...anyone seen one? Hyosung motor is depressing though

Preliminary stages of toying with the idea...

It's an SV knockoff. No need to be depressed. It's the same damn motor that's in your bike.

[bostongixxer]

Hyosung engine? Hmm...not so sure I'm impressed anymore.

[Woodsy]

wonder if it shows up on radar! nearly 400lbs with only 77hp though... not sure.

[Woodsy]

although the styling is from the same guy that did the Boxer Voxan VB-1 and that was a sweet looking bike. was not so much a fan of the VB-2 though.

[RavenHawk]

I think the Hyosung engine is the big question mark here, especially considering the price.

[catch2otwo]

i dont think it will sell well seeing as how 90% of the sportbike crowd needs the biggest and baddest. 77 horse doesnt fit that bill.

don't you say that! my SV is very sensitive...she's one of a kind

[pangerang]

So, you're going to be selling this for 8k.... right next to the SV650 for 6k?

Do you guys realize that the hyosung motor IS the sv motor???

[Hauptman]

suspension on the fischer destroys an SV

its a copy

Everything I've read says it's only an 'SV Knockoff' motor in that it's a 650cc 4v liquid cooled L twin. Other than that... they don't share a thing.

dunno... The current SV650S (full fairing) sells for $6599, and doesn't have the styling that this thing does.

We've always toyed with the idea of a secondary line to Suzuki. We certainly know this engine...


Damn it! Why can't Willows Motorsports just go out of business so I can have Honda and Yamaha?

[bigred875]

if the sv motor and the hyosung motors are the same then why is it that every hyosung i've ever seen ran like total dog shit?

the design is the same but arent the material cheaper...liek with the xr/crf50 "clones"?

i'd be very skeptical of these bikes.....esp for 8k

[catch2otwo]

so could you compare this fisher bike to a say a monster? both are around the 8k price range, both are twins, both around the same hp. obv one is faired the other is not. i think id rather have a duc.

[Kurlon]

Hyosung does assemble bikes for Suzuki for sale in certain markets, including the SV650. Those bikes go out the door labeled Suzuki. The Hyosung 650 is NOT a Suzuki SV650 motor, it's the same basic configuration, but it's about as close to being a clone as Honda's RC51 motor is.

[Degsy]

So, you're going to be selling this for 8k.... right next to the SV650 for 6k?

Harley Davidson Road King (American made from world sourced parts) $17,345.00

Honda VTX1800 (Japanese with Japanese parts)
$12,499.00

They are the same bike if you put them side by side (except the Honda is more reliable, makes more power, is a better handler, won't rot, has cheaper and better accessories, requires less maintenance..etc..etc)

..end of story. The Fischer is american, the average american consumer is dumb, which is why Harley can peddle their crap at extortionate prices. I think this bike will sell.

BTW, I have now taught MSF to several students who have bought Hyosung bikes and ALL of them were very very happy with the quality and service from Hyosung.

The market and players are changing. Noel's company is making a smart decision in looking into Chinese/Korean bikes. Honda were criticized for making "cheap crap" in 1964. 3 years later they were dominating the market in many countries.

[bigred875]

ok, in fairness i've only seen 3 hyo's lol....but those 3 ran like poop...2 had carb issues and 1 elect.

[Hauptman]

the one hyosung at my MSF had rotating handlebar switches and came that way brand new. The kid riding was having some difficulty with all the controls.
