I am really tall (197cm) when I hear people have problems putting their feet down - i am like: That's my bike!

The bike is very good! I was surprised by the suspension and the seat, very comfortable! Once you ride it, you feel you can go wherever you want

Just wanted to add something to the "affordability" category and something no one seems to mention. Parts prices. If someone is considering this bike and actually intends to use it on the dirt.... Then chances are, you are going to fall off an break things. So how does the little Voge compare to the Honda CRF for replacement bits.... Front mud Guard:. Voge £42. Honda £210. Gear lever: Voge £20 Honda £67. RH side cover/panel Voge £21 Honda £157. Let's say you fall off and some nasty big 4X4 runs over your wheels.... Voge, both wheels (complete Rims, Spokes & Hub) £496 Honda (complete, same as voge) Rear wheel (not available but the rim alone is £431 and the front wheel is £823. (So that's both Voge wheels for not much more that the rear wheel rim of the Honda. Voge: Get out and ride without a care. Honda: Best be careful. Nuff said.

It has grown on me I quite like it, some home servicing to save yet more money and speeds don't bother me, there's no middle or right lane on a dirt track.

You are a professional motorcycle journalist, didn't twitch even ant 🐜 bit 😂

Its a great bike for the money, quite a saving 😊

I love mine but I'm not sure saying it is happy at 70mph is quite true. Mine feels happiest at 53mph. Above that I start to get wracked with guilt 🤣 Could do with some higher gearing for road use but I like the stock gearing for greenlaning. Dipped beam is perfectly fine, my high needs adjusting as its pointing at the sky 🤣 With regards to the tyres, they are actually deceptively good off road. It would go places on these that a Himmy needed TKC 80's to get up.

Love this Little bike. Maybe someday...

Rode one recently and this is the second one i have rideen and very impressive for the money its very attractive well balanced and stable suspension is surprisingly good and quite a peppy motor ergos are very good for me at 6ft i wouldn't need bar risers build quality is good it looks well finished but probably needs looking after to avoid corrosion...downsides are the vibes which are very noticeable and would become irritating something that you are stuck with.. awful seat so soft it sinks to nothing so you end sitting on the base obviously fairly easy to remedy.. screen is crap probably another easy fix..but a good effort at a good price

Hi Mark thanks for the excellent review, brill. Service it yourself, it's very easy apart from the valve check. There has been a problem with the rectifier, but it's a very easy fix. Other than that it's a great bike. 👍

If I were a manufacturer, I wouldn't spend money on an exhaust that will ditched on day one for a cheap, illegal and super-loud aftermarket item. Exhausts on most bikes, could easily last the whole life of the bike, but will actually just be dumped at the back of a shed. Seems such a waste.

Hi Mark, great review & your thoughts 🤙 Between this & the Zontes350T, which would you choose? We don’t get either here in Aus, but Voge global is gaining traction just like KOVE. A battle of the Chinese 😎

I quite like mild steel exhausts because stainless is over engineering imo. Mild steel one on my 125 learner bike had only a very small baffle rattle from inside when I sold it at 36k and 14 years old. This is a budget bike and I'm just glad it's not one of those cheesy looking fake carbon fibre end cans haha

To me ( with the right tyres) this is the perfect adventure bike or the perfect trail bike depending on choice..it's a stunning design and looks " integrated" where the Honda rally 300 looks goofy. As a commuter. It would be fabulous with great visibility.. I'm definitely interested..Thanks for your honest review as always..price is phenomenal for level of finish etc..for me, the perfect back country lane ( potholed!!) Fun bike with easy off road fun.id change the exhaust for stainless if available and find some storage options and still have a cheap bike which I may be able to service myself due to lack of complexity..Great Bike!!

But Mark insects do love you (you taste like chicken) LOL

Hi Mark, just came across your channel due to the videos of the Voge 300 RALLY. I'm a 2022 Himalayan rider currently (a bike I love) but looking for something a bit more adept off-road. I have questions about what you experienced with this bike, if you don't mind ? 1. On my Himmie the engine performance increased significantly as the kms piled on, so how many KMS did this bike have when you first got it and how many has it got now ? 2. During the above period, did you notice any 'freeing-off' of the engine and at what stage ? 3. Did you do any daylong rides with this bike and how did the comfort hold up ? and finally 4. Is there anything about the bike I should be aware of, during my negotiations with my dealer ? New model around the corner for example ? My thanks for these 'most excellent' videos on the Voge and I wish you well in all your endeavours, Dave.

Hi, I heard that electric system it's almost all Bosh. Do you have heard something about that?

curious do you have an opinion on the exhaust?

first oil change at 500 km, second at 5000 km and then every 7500 km, according to the Service Manual for Italy.

It’s fascinating that a Kove 450 is available for just a little more …. Tempted?

Service it yourself. 200 plus pounds to change the oil / filter and adjust the chain?! Tell ‘em they’re dreaming.

yes yes and yes - now, Voge , just make a model with 46-48mm forks that are adjustable with adjustable shock, watch Honda crap itself

LOL what a moan about an exhaust that 95% change anyway, and what a lot of digressing lol, thanks for the info.

Your the same company that bigged up that crappy zontes that didn't last 2 minutes. 😂 Any way good review.

Please do delete the first two minutes and all the other instances where you fight off whatever is trying to eat you. Even better, redo this video all together without unfunny "digressions". Thanks.
