    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    I collected it from Off Road Cycles today and did a quick spin trough the streets of Pretoria, had to get back to the office for some meetings, so did not have much time to ride around. this weekend I will do some riding. So far so good and very happy!

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    For those who are interested, I paid R 68,500 for this brand new, out of the box. I still need to pay the Licence, Registration and Numberplate fees, not sure what that will come to.

    Lighter Bike - Yes or No??

    Very valid point Danie My thinking is that I will use the big bike for long distance (non-techical) travel / rides possibly with the wife on the back. These rides will be mostly tar based with some dirt roads and very little technical riding, so the big bike will be no issue. Small bike will...

    Yes, ABS switch on the left handlebar. It only switches off the ABS on the rear wheel.

    Lighter Bike - Yes or No??

    My thinkig is the following.... Have either: 1 x Midsize Bike eg. Yamaha T7 = +- R200k or 1 x Large Bike eg. Oil Cooled BMW GSA = +- R110k to R125k 1 x Small Bike eg. Voge 300Rally = R70k Price wise they are the same.... I just bought the Voge300Rally and I am looking for an Oil Cooled GSA...

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    Hehehehehe, I never bad mouthed the bike or the brand, I had an issue with the Sales / Dealer issue..... I wanted to buy the bike but found it so hard to actually buy it! That hot-wired 4-valve worked a treat on the timed loop though, but I was still too slow to catch the young guns.... at...

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    Why the Voge 300 Rally over the X-Pulse 200 with Rally Pack? Well, I was seriously looking at the Hero as I have been on quite a few rides with Donovan as well as a number of rides with Skinny and Jolandi. Keep in mind that all three of them are riding Hero’s, but all on loan from HeroSA, so it...

    This was one of the main reasons I went with the Voge over the Hero, but I will post a proper explanation with my reasoning.

    Ching-Chong-Cha.... My Voge300 Rally journey!

    The Honda 300 Rally is the closest competitor in specs....but not on price, I think the Honda is over R110k, where the Voge is just under R70k, so over R40k cheaper!!! I did not even consider the Honda due to the price. What I did consider was the Hero X-Pulse200 (4-Valve) with the Rally Kit...
