Hi folks,
I'm new to this thread, and it may well have been asked before (please refer me to it), but I want to buy a new Hyosung 250 Mirage, in Kwangju. I live 2 hours south of there, and was told that because it's an oil cooled bike, it isn't suited for that kind of road trip to where I live. I was told (by a Daelim dealer shop) that water cooled is really the only way to go for such a trip. Sure like to hear some opinions about that.

Thanks!

I think you mean water cooled and air cooled. I had a honda a few years ago and the water cooling worked fine. If you are just taking it home it shouldn't be a hassle. the air cooling system just has trouble on really hot days I thought. anyway the weather is getting cooler. maybe just try taking the old roads and you'll have a better ride.

If it is a long ride just take breaks and give yourself some time to rest the bike. anyway I guess the main problem would be running it at high speeds for a prolonged time if it isn't really a highway bike.

Thanks for the feedback! I might have misheard the Korean pronunciation for air/oil.
