Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS

Despite its impressive specs and features, the Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS was discontinued in India in March 2020. The bike had competed with the likes of the Harley-Davidson Street 750 and Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 but failed to gain significant market traction. I think this discontinuation highlights the competitive nature of the Indian motorcycle market.

The Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS is known for its powerful 647cc engine, which produces 75.02 PS of power and 62.1 Nm of torque. This makes it a strong contender in the cruiser segment, offering both performance and style. However, it is quite heavy with a kerb weight of 240 kg. I believe the power-to-weight ratio is something to consider for potential buyers.

The Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS was praised for its exceptional comfort and huge appearance, making it a standout in the cruiser segment. However, it was also noted for being not so fuel efficient, with a mileage of around 18 kmpl. I believe this is a trade-off many riders might be willing to make for the bikes performance and comfort.

The bikes safety features include a pass light switch, which provides extra safety assurance while driving through heavy traffic. This, combined with the dual-channel ABS, makes the Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS a safer option for riders. I think these safety features are essential for any modern motorcycle.

The Hyosung Aquila Pro ABS was re-launched in India in October 2018 with a price tag of Rs 5.5 lakhs (ex-showroom pan-India). This cruiser features a 647cc, liquid-cooled, 90-degree V-twin engine producing 75.02 PS of power and 62.1 Nm of torque. It comes with dual-channel ABS, a digital speedometer, and a sleek design. I think this is a great value for a 650cc cruiser, especially with the added safety of ABS.

The Hyosung Aquila Pro GV650 was re-launched in India in 2018 with an ex-showroom price of Rs 5.5 lakhs. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can easily exceed Rs 6.5 lakhs, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing positions the Aquila Pro GV650 in a competitive segment against other cruisers like the Harley-Davidson Street 750 and the Royal Enfield Interceptor 650, although it is priced higher than the latter. Given the features and performance, the price seems reasonable for those looking for a high-performance cruiser, but the overall value for money is questionable due to the bikes reliability and maintenance issues.
