      @@daveknight3666 I will be honest it’s a heavy bike to move. If your garage is flat and you have a good area to turn, you will handle it. It’s an amazing bike and very easy to ride, I have just install a over the air update from my phone to the bike and it’s transformed it into one of the best adventure bikes on the market. I have a messed up left shoulder, scans soon, and I don’t have a problem, I’m 63 in January. Depends on your bike needs, lots of travelling and adventure or an enjoyable experience. My RE Super meteor is the same weight but is so light to handle and ride, it’s amazing. Check out my videos on that. But the DXS 900 is the Swiss Army knife of bikes

    I took a Voge dsx900 out for an hour today. I was not impressed. It is quite a heavy and cramped . The indicator switcb had fallen off. The fuel mapping was snatchy and the slipper clutch was lumpy. It was so nice to get back on my 7 year old ktm 1090, at least that seat has a height adjustment with a much lighter clutch.

    Please guys be careful of handlebar raisers. I get it for comfort but it changes the geometry and takes your weight off the front which has a big impact on traction -Especially off-road. I’ve been to BMW-Rider academy and on one of the tracks they don’t allow bikes with raisers due to the amount of crashes that’s happened with guys using Bar raisers. I’m probably gonna get a lot of flack for this but I’m doing it for your safety. (I’m 1.88 so I many times feel I need them to make standing more comfortable but I never did)

    Ive found all bikes have the alleged throttle thing your talking about, my personal riding is use my thumb and finger to roll on the throttle without moving my wrist, my bike at the moment has a long throttle throw there's no way I could use it without moving my hand at some point, I don't see it has an issue but it's all subjective, I think the clunky gear box will smooth out once it run in. Our opinions are ours. Great bike id love one

      Most of the early niggles have sorted themselves out over the last 3500 KMs the throttle turn is still excessive but you get used to rolling your hand from fingers to the heel of your hand to change grip. It's a well put together bike.

      The camera is set on far right of the helmet so gives an impression that I'm further left, although on on a lot of our country roads the centre line is the only part of the road that's not full of pot holes. Even the cars drive down the centre if it's clear. Throttle control is fine after 2nd gear, so cruise wouldn't help. Although the cruise control is really good on the voge.

I had the same snatchy throttle issue on my Explore it went back to the dealers this weekend and they installed an updated map which has not completly solved it but made it an awefull lot better. In essence im sure will get a new map soon .Its a lot to do with the emission requirements of different countries i believe.

    Hi first of all good review, What is your height and have you measured the correct height of the seat from the ground and how does your height fit with the ergonomics of the DS900X? My height is 186cm and I'm afraid if I will fit in ☹️. In the meantime, there will be no test model in my country, the first shipment is coming in the middle of June and if I wait until then there will be no free DS900X left.

      I find the seat height perfect for my height. But the footrests are quite high for the overall ground clearance. I find my legs more bent than on my Vstrom. I think there are some options out there to drop the foot pegs. That with bar raisers would make the bike more comfortable.

      If I had test drove one the initial impression might have put me off, but after now covering 600 KMS I would highly recommend buying it. You get accustomed to the way it is. A test ride would be prudent if you have expectations or ride a super smooth Honda for example. Lots of Dual sport adventure bikes are similar to the Voge, KTM for example. The torque and the usable power the motor produces are superb. The minor niggles o have outlined may not be a problem for many, plus I'm guessing over time with mapping and running in most of the points I mentioned would be alleviated.

      @HorusOliveira 7 месяцев назад +3

      @motechRevolution well, yesterday I tested both the QJ SRT 700x and the Voge DS 900 X, one after the other. And I'm glad I did tested both together. Also, your opinions helped so much aswell. Thank you so much.
      So, before anything else, I may say I was "in love" for the Voge. That one was my 1st choice.
      After the test, my opinions:
      1) Voge's suspension didn't impressed me;
      2) Voge's brakes are good, but not better than the QJ;
      3) Ride by wire didn't impressed me (too snatchi - don't know if this how it writes);
      4) I couldn't understand how I was on 100 km/h and I felt so much wind in my chest (not on the helmet - that I could stand) with the windscreen all the way up. Again, it was on my chest...
      5) No way I would wait 6 months for the bike to arrive. That one put me completely OFF.
      Again, I tested the QJ first and then the Voge. Only this way I was able to compare. And I was SO IN for the Voge...
      I could wait 2 months (maximum) for the bike. Voge was not ready for the success.
      Please keep us posted with your feedback.
      I wish you safe rides.

      @@HorusOliveira you are right on a few points the throttle response is still little off and the screen takes some work with an extender to get right. It's all about our expectations though. I have read so many posts about the BMW 850 GS and they mirror the Voge 900DSX in their ride and feel. I think that for the style of bike, 60 on road and 40 off road the Voge is on par with BMWs f line up and KTM. Triumph tend to be a little smoother but don't have the dual sport pedigree.. So horses for courses. My Vstrom is a superb sport adventure tourer but useless off road. It's all down to your end use. IMO the voge is good at all you ask of it. Not a one trick pony.

I do not result to insults because I am confident I can dish it back in equal proportions😄😄 Anyway, let me explain; we are all conditioned differently and therefore have different biases, preferences, notions, beliefs etc. This is something most people forget. In motorcycles, it is the same and profoundly so especially when it comes to what the larger majority of riders think of Chinese bikes.
      Here in East Africa and most parts of Africa, we grow up accustomed to and conditioned to very very sketchy Chinese bikes...motorcycles that require the rider to actually make the motorcycle work for whatever application or terrain you put it, sometimes never for its "perceived intended use".
      Ergo, when I come across a high quality motorcycle, I am more than inclined and happy to work with it as it is and figure out how to draw out the best from it, without being bothered by small issues that have no bearing on the actual joy of it all.
      Some issues are dangerous security/safety matters, but again, my background always dismisses them with "meh, I've seen worse"...

      @@MorrisMbogo4444 thanks for the explanation, yes I am aware of the mass produced low capacity engined Chinese bikes and I agree with you. But I do think they were also very cheap. I know they were in mainland Europe. Although the higher capacity CF Moto and Voge Loncin bikes are cheaper than the opposition, they have quality components and tried and trusted engines. Voge here in Spain gives a full 5 year warranty providing you have main dealership service during that period. It's a testament to all the guys around the world who keep the low quality bikes running, not a mean feat. I know there are tonnes of low capacity Chinese 2 stroke scooters here in Spain that look totally battered but they seem to run forever. Thanks for your comments, especially now I understand them.
