Voge DS625X
- Thread starter Arsey
- Start date
I saw a couple yesterday at KD Motorcycles, they look really good, surprisingly so, I think the established brands may soon go the same way as the Brits in the 70s.
The Brits are always last to drop the preconceptions and prejudices . The 900 is selling like hot cakes and this 625 looks another belter . And a bargain at £6199 OTR.
Looking forward to riding my 900 in Brittany next week .
And now for the ultimate , no holds barred rip snorting review.
Hi guys, Mark here…….
Amazing how Voge can fit backlit controls on a £6k bike yet BMW can’t do it on a bike costing more than three times as much.

Amazing spec for the money! 
Yes , 3750 miles isn’t much but probably more than many do in a year . But let’s say you do double that , then it’s going to be another £200 ish annually ,so £600 if you keep the bike three years .
Probably not a deal breaker given the low cost of the bike to purchase.
Looks a great bike with a good power increase over the outgoing model.
Voge are finally making inroads in the UK, as they have in Europe for a few years and just possibly some Brit’s are losing their preconceived ideas such as poor build quality and depreciation off a cliff, when they realise that it’s not the case in reality.
Do you ride everywhere at 120 mph ?
The tank is 17.6 litres and they got 64mpg on test so that’s 253 miles to empty or a good 220 miles plus decent reserve.
I’d say that’s more than adequate for most people .
That’s a low service interval . I wonder what’s gonna break if it doesn’t get some garage attention ?

That tanks is far too small and I doubt you'd get that MPG in real riding conditions.
That’s the exact mpg they got for the duration of the test, ie real riding conditions.
I think this bike is maybe not for you .
Do I detect a bit of ‘Boxerlust’ syndrome??
That looks a good deal. A CB500X with a bigger motor 270 crank and less wonka 
Shame it’s only got a 250 mile rangeThat looks a good deal. A CB500X with a bigger motor 270 crank and less wonka
I think folk are in denial about the amount of Chinese content in their "Premium" brands. I checked the valves in my Africa Twin and nearly every piece of electronics that had to be removed to get at the valves was stamped made in China. The 2.5 ltr petrol engine in my old Toyota RAV4 was made in China though the car was assembled in Japan.Shame it’s only got a 250 mile range

I haven’t ridden one but I had a good look at the Voge range at Robinsons in Rochdale. The Voge bikes seemed to have only the E5 sticker on the tank.
