For some years Hyosung has used Suzuki-designed engines in its 125cc cruisers, and over the last two years has produced a GT250 and GT650 V-twin.
Now it has produced this Roadster variant on the GT650R sports-tourer, which is dubbed GT650X.
The GT650X features a trellis-type frame, 650cc V-Twin motor, emissions catalyser hidden beneath the engine, with a MotoGP-style end can, braced swingarm rear suspension and a more upright riding position than the sporty GT650 is able to provide.
It looks like a fun weekend bike and would probably make an ideal first timers machine for many novice riders who have just passed their test.
There's no word on price yet, but E P Barrus (who import the Hyosung brand in the UK) reckon it will be competitive with class leading machines like the SV650 Suzuki, Hornet 600 or Kawasaki Z750.
