Go Fisching
The Fischer Motorcycle Company in the USA is about to launch its first bike – a Hyosung 650-powered sports machine with twin beam alloy frame and styling by Glynn Kerr, called the MRX.The company says it has appointed a distributor and lists the retail price at a surprisingly modest US$7995, or around $9600 Australian.
Included in the package is Ohlins suspension and basic Brembo brakes, with upgrade options.
If Hyosung goes ahead with its 1000cc V-twin project, the Fischer company plans to use the powerplant to build a bigger version of the MRX.
