I did not know it was that rare in Costa Rica , does your place have more or less hyosung dealers ? Because Hyosung is still making bikes since they have updated their GV series since 2020
No word yet on new GT versions lol, but they tend to focus on the GV first before the GT gets another update.
Will be following your projects, keep us posted!

Yes is a rare bike here here was introduced by a hyousung dealer that mostly imported the 650 gtr and the Aquila I think and other. Custom style model and time before UM imported the V2s which is the 250cc versión and Also de 650 variant, both distributors closed and the UM change owner so no more hyo s here some people also imported it form panama as far as I know only the first gen hyousung sports and naked arrived here and some Aquilas the 650 are more usual but de 250 like mine are less common to be honest in the las 8-7 years I just see 2 250 appart than mine thats why y try to keep it running

Unless you make it yourself with some fibreglassing modding, there is a UK company that makes the rear hump similar to your picture below:
https://skidmarx.co.uk/all-products/hyosung-gtgtr-125250650-seat-cowlNot sure if they ship to you but you can always ask 🙂

Hi Marcel thanks for the tip I still looking for options in fact I am Analising that one, the issue here is that depending of the part just the taxes can be the same price than the part it self

What paint is that and how many coats so far ? and any “Clear Coat” applied to it too ? – I think you have learned that Hyosung uses a lot of paint for the tanks especially the red colour lol.

That is true I had to sand a Lot to remove the stickers the clear was really hard, I am using poliurethane automotive paint it’s what we call here a direct gloss paint basically a single stage paint, I applied like 4 coats . by the way checking the registration of the bike I had luck it was registered as a black bike so I Dont have to mess with any paper work

Looking better now 🙂 Are you putting a “Belly Pan” next ?
for sure it Will be a Nice addition, I didn’t think about it first but it’s a very good sugestión

Nice welds , all it needs now is a GS500 Belly Pan at the bottom of the engine and it will look boss 😉
I like a Lot the result at this point, I have like 2 months of welding experience but I able to weld somethings in a decent way I need to learn a Lot more.
Thanks Marcel for all the feedback I Will look for the belly pan for sure as well as some other stetic mods I am thinking to addition some racing stripes ok something like than
