Kinetic GF 125
Kinetic and Hyosung Corporation of South Korea came together to produce GF 125, the first Indian bike to use four-valve engine technology. For bike enthusiasts who care two hoots about power, there is enough visual attraction to keep the mind occupied. Techno buffs would be happy to know about a four valve head, starter motor and the disc up front.

GF 125 is a bike with impressive looks, featuring internationally acclaimed styling with differentiated contours and a sculpted fuel tank design. The fuel tank can store 13.7 liter and a usable reserve of 1 liter. A 120 mm dia ventilated disc brake on the front wheel gives huge braking ability, further enhanced by a 130 mm dia drum brake at rear. Its 220 mm disc brakes helps one to have a complete grip on the ride. The bike is available with various important features like dual tone color schemes, dashboard-like instrument console, twin headlamps etc. Other instrumentation offered includes digital gear indicator, engine kill switch, pass light, tachometer, tripmeter etc.

Control and Comfort
