HYOSUNG GV650 Aquila (2008-2009) Specs, Performance & Photos

One of many motorcycles Hyosung made was the Aquila, which was manufactured in three displacements: 125, 250, and 650cc. The Aquila GV650 was presented in 2005 and released into the cruiser world in January 2006.

In 2008, the South Korean motorcycle maker released the Hyosung GV650 Aquila, a custom motorcycle, which was the largest displacement model in the range. It came with the same characteristics as the previous one without any changes.

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 bike was made around a double-pipe steel frame with a 41 mm inverted telescopic fork mounted on the front and dual side-mounted shock absorbers mounted on the rear, offering excellent riding characteristics.

The braking performance was achieved by two 300 mm brake discs mounted on the front with two-piston calipers and a 270 mm brake disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear.

Regarding power, the 2008 Hyosung GV650's soul was brought to life by a 647cc liquid-cooled four-stroke V-twin engine that delivered 81 hp at 9,000 rpm and 67 Nm (49 lb-ft) torque at 7,250 rpm.

In the visual department, the bike had standard features, such as a round headlight integrated into a chromed housing, a stylish fuel tank, a one-piece dual seat, side-mounted shocks, a two-into-one chromed exhaust system, and three-spoke aluminum wheels.
