Title: Hyosung RX 450SM... Post by Serowbot on 06/05/10 at 11:04:11 Coming soon,... maybe?... "...first look at a 450 supermoto bike built in Korea by Hyosung. Looks a lot like a Husqvarna. This bike is fuel injected and has a claimed weight under 260 pounds." http://www.supermotoracer.com/1207_dec_posts/HyosungRX450SM_800.jpg |

Title: Re: Hyosung RX 450SM... Post by Oldfeller on 06/05/10 at 11:22:00 http://www.thebikergene.com/gallery/zen/i.php?a=Hyosung%202008%20Models&i=RX450SM.jpg&w=500&h= New RX450SM The supermotard style has captured the hearts and minds of commuters and motorcycle couriers alike due to it’s unsurpassed agility in the confines of the urban jungle. Hyosung have seen the writing on the wall and are bringing their own single cylinder, 450cc supermotard style bike to the range. The RX450SM’s engine is a liquid-cooled DOHC four valve single cylinder, with an aluminium silicon (Si) sleeve for more power and durability. The aluminium alloy comprises over 30 per cent Si and is the only alloy of its type currently in production. A PF die-cast piston is more durable and exhibits less thermal expansion than normal cast and applied steel (FE) pistons. Vibration is reduced by counter-balancing. Power output is 50bhp at 8,500rpm. The frame uses CrMo steel for lightness with rigidity. The down tube of the main frame acts as the oil reservoir and the aluminium sub-frame is a separate section for easier maintenance. The aluminium swing arm is light, but rigid enough for the most demanding conditions. The wheelbase is 1,486mm with a ground clearance of 278mm. The 45mm upside down front fork is fully adjustable and has 250mm of wheel travel. The rear suspension features a 50mm fully adjustable damper and has 280mm of travel. Brakes are by Brembo with the wavy front disc 260mm diameter, and the rear 250mm. The digital speedometer includes a stopwatch function. The dry weight of the Hyosung RX450SM is 120kg |

Title: Re: Hyosung RX 450SM... Post by Oldfeller on 06/05/10 at 15:51:34 Recalc to normal old simple inches please. 2 ft is 24 inches plus whatever that remainer really was .... 10 inches, wasn't it So that would be 34 inch seat height Verify by metric translation 865mm = about 34 inches (or about six inches too tall for me) |

Title: Re: Hyosung RX 450SM... Post by gerald.hughes on 06/06/10 at 19:46:34 Now if you could just figure some way to get a 28 or 29 inch seat height. Shouldn't be that difficult since you only have 17inch wheels. |
