Noice, what is that?
Vor, never heard of it before.

Boutique motorcycle manufacturer from Italy, not many around. Stopped production in 2005 i think. I have a 2002 model, still mixes it with the top Euro bikes. Specs as good as any modern Enduro Weapon.
I just love the fact no-one has heard of them. Lots of fun when I look for a workshop to do some work on it, when i say VOR and they say, "a what" I quickly turn and walk out!

On that picture, I had a quick look and thought that PVC pipe were your exhausts.  [laugh]

Hi tricolore

A guy we knew had a VOR once. We go get drity occasionally well the other half does, but on four wheels he has a new can am 650, and I have actually got a Suzuki 4x4 500 Quadrunner up home here at the moment I am trying before I buy ;D So me can get dirty too [thumbsup] they are great fun, but they are slowly closing up where you can go here in Tassie. Hubby goes down the remote west coast  here every year for a few days and they explore old mines etc. So I want to go too, maybe I will buy this one, 2000 model, 2 & 4 wheel drive High and low range so 10 gears, for $3100 not a bad buy, I will have to bling it thou, it already has nice alloy wheels ;D

EGAS

Didn't VOR go broke???


What is it like for finding spares??


A bike shop down the road was selling VOR's and yes they are a very nice dirt bike! [thumbsup]


As for dirt biking I would love to but I sold my WR250 2 stroker a number of years ago. :'(

Still got the riding gear though.

The Watagans........you luck son of pregnant dog.


Enjoy

Rob

funnily enough i'm drooling over a KTM 300exe at the mo................
i'm in brissie though and i haven't done anything about it................YET!

Broke, Bankrupt, caput, gooooone, Yes... it does make getting parts more difficult. There is word that a U.S based mob is planning reproduction parts??? Very expensive to have worked on so i have learned to fix alot myself. Actually have considered buying another for spares. May sound extravagant but I have a gut feeling that they will be quite collectable in the future for the reasons above.
I also love the thing so would not consider selling. I would only buy something else thats a little out of left field anyway... and specs would be similar only.
