There's a big difference between Hyosung now and early Jap bikes.Much of the critisism of the Japs was from die hard Brit is best types who would'nt give credit where it was due.Jap bikes then were cheaper and better than the home grown competition by any objective measure.They had better and more modern design,better build quality,massively better reliability and they did'nt leak oil everywhere to name a few examples.The latest influx only have a price advantage,as they use older designs,and poorer quality body parts and accessories.They are competing with established brands that invest heavily in their products and won't be caught napping like the Brits were in the sixties.
