One of the first things you notice about the Rally will be the chunky dual purpose tires, they certainly look different to the standard road tires most scooters come with. Strangely enough, they don’t seem to detract from the ride quality in anyway. I imagine they wouldn’t grip quite as well as a dedicated road tire however it’s not something I noticed in regular riding. What they did do was help iron out road undulations, which gives the Rally a very smooth ride, especially smooth compared to most 50cc scooters. The Rally is a rather large scooter for a 50cc model but it’s a good large. Some bigger 50cc scooters simply feel…heavy, not the Rally. The large tires and sturdy body give the Hyosung a quality feel not unlike a Vespa LX 50. The Rally would definitely suit larger riders as it doesn’t have the “I’m on a toy” feeling most 50cc scooters give you.

Ease of use wise the Rally is about average, it’s pretty easy to put on the centre stand and if that fails there’s always the included side stand. The under seat storage area is one of the largest we’ve seen on any normal sized scooter and easily swallows a full face helmet. There’s no glove box up front and no remote release for the seat so you’ll have to remove the key to get to items but that’s about the same as most 50cc bikes. There is a bag hook so worst case you can always chuck the shopping on there if you’re in a hurry. Build quality is surprisingly good considering the entry level price, the Hyosung betters most other bikes at similar money.
