I would consider one if we still had a dealer in town. Hyosung used to make a nice 250 naked bike, but I'm not sure if they offered a naked 650. The Hyosung 250s were a bit heavy because they used the same frame as the 650.

Cool. Hyosung does still offer a naked 650. I'd love to ride it and the CFmoto.

Valley Scooter, a site sponsor, sells some CFmoto. I don't know if they would be able to offer the naked 650.

I found a dealer a hundred miles from here that stocks them but I'm not in the market at the moment.

According to this article, CFmoto has been racing that 650cc engine at the Isle of Man TT since 2013. I will look for it on the tele this June.

They raced there this past year. This is the story from the Australian distributor.
