Hyosung GT650R Vs Kawasaki Ninja 300 - Comparative Review

In the previous article, we saw the major drawbacks and differences between Kawasaki Ninja 300 and Pulsar 200 NS. And now in this article, I am going to compare Kawasaki Ninja 300 and Hyosung GT650R. Let's differentiate the two super fast bikes that are from Japan(Kawasaki) and Korea(Hyosung). Hyosung GT650R which is manufactured by Hyosung, Korea has been designed to those people, who like super fast speed. It can go up-to the top speed of 210 kmph which is much faster compared to Ninja 300. This bike has been launched in 2012 with great specifications and latest technology. When Hyosung was launched, it didn't have any competitor that match its speed. But when Kawasaki Ninja 650R was launched, it gave a perfect competition to Hyosung.
