Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a friendly, low-power cruiser well suited to beginners and riders returning to biking after a break.
PurposeDesigned as an entry-level cruiser for relaxed street riding and short commutes rather than performance or long-distance touring.
Rider FitLow seat height and modest weight make it easy to handle for shorter or less experienced riders.
CharacterIt has classic cruiser looks with a V-twin burble but delivers modest, unhurried performance.
Not Ideal ForNot a good fit for riders wanting strong acceleration, highway overtaking punch, or serious two-up touring comfort.

2009 Hyosung GV 250 Rider Ergonomics Assessment

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

Feet:

At 700mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2009 Hyosung GV 250, 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.
