Rider Profile

Best ForThis bike suits beginner to early-intermediate riders thanks to its modest power delivery and forgiving, low-strung V-twin character.
PurposeIt's built as a low-key cruiser for relaxed street riding rather than outright speed or performance.
Rider FitThe low 710mm seat height and low-slung cruiser ergonomics make it accessible to shorter riders and easy to manage at a stop.
CharacterIt has a laid-back, classic cruiser personality driven by its air-cooled-feel 75-degree V-twin and modest torque output.
Not Ideal ForIt's not for riders seeking high-speed touring, aggressive cornering performance, or any kind of off-road capability.

2014 Hyosung GV250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 709mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2014 Hyosung GV250, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and an upright riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
