In 2011, the South Korean motorcycle maker released the Hyosung GV250 Aquila, a custom cruiser motorcycle that debuted in 2000. It was made over two series. The first series comprised motorcycles produced from 2000 to 2004, and the second series from 2004.
Hyosung was a South Korean motorcycle manufacturer founded in 1978. It was a division of the Hyosung Group of Industries. In 1979, Hyosung started manufacturing Japanese Suzuki motorcycle designs.
The 2011 motorcycle was the same shape and form as the previous one, featuring the same performance, visual, and technical characteristics without any modifications whatsoever.
Regarding power, the 2010 Hyosung GV250 Aquila's heartbeat was set by a 249cc four-stroke V-twin air/oil-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 24 hp with a peak force at 9,000 rpm and 22 Nm (16 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
In the suspension department, the motorcycle packed a 41 mm conventional telescopic fork on the front and dual preload-adjustable shocks on the rear, providing excellent riding characteristics.
The braking power was handled by a single disc mounted on the front wheel, clamped by a dual-piston caliper, and a drum braking unit mounted on the rear wheel, offering optimum braking performance.
Aesthetically, the motorcycle had standard features, like a round headlight up front, a stylish fuel tank, a two-piece dual seat, a two-into-one chromed exhaust system, valanced fenders, and six-spoke aluminum alloy wheels.
