@icedfusion hi, the bike has never 'not started'. After the dealer looked at the bike and reset the warning light, the bike had been perfect again. I'm now wondering if the fault code was caused by me adding 2 heated vests in conjunction with the heated seat and heated grips being on full power and GPS plugged in? Maybe this was a little too much amps for the bike to cope with. I need to add up the total amp draw and find out how much the bike system can put out!

@blowduke that's why I got rid of my b'mer!!

@waynelander4324 hi, have a look at 'uncle Wang shop', you can download the app. The centre exhaust pipe was just over 50 quid. It's titanium and you can buy the full system off him. We have noticed his prices are creeping up as these bike's become more popular. Ali express also sell lots of the accessories as well. Good luck.

@erikflickinger1828 hi, that's interesting, please let me know which scanner you used. Thanks James

​@@jameswalton8532well I tried to reply but apparently it didn't like my reply?

@@jimbossimrigs7961 👍👍

@Trevster65 hi, thanks. Now no faults showing on the bike and she's running well. Fingers crossed all will be well👍

@jimbossimrigs7961 hi, yes my bike came with version 4.2 and I did the update to 4.4 myself. The dealer wasn't concerned about the update!

@garykendall9426 hi, I agree, the quicksilver on the voge is a lot smoother than my BMW gsa 👍

@jameswalton8532 great bike well built not cheap.they mean business

@@paulgibson490 hi, not sure what 'novram' is??

@jameswalton8532 A novram is a non volatile random access memory where information is written to and should not be erased, this is separate from the part of the memory where the vehicle software is programed to in the electronic control module. I will probably have got this back to front hopefully others will correct me. GB moto had a huge stand at the nec so many different models no wonder they are struggling to support dealers.

@@MarkWebb-t6x hi, yes it did👍

Lots of people on UA-cam complaining of problems with the BMW 1300’s. I do agree with your point though.

In my experience I see a lot of people complain online about how ridiculously unreliable and vulnerable to theft Range Rovers are, those being cars between £40k to well over £100k. I think in the past you used to "get what you pay for" but nowadays I think "you get what they're able to get away with". It seems few manufacturers take pride in anything over than their profit margins these days.

@stevendavenport364 if this voge gives me half the trouble my BMW gave me ,I'll be happy!

@philipwatson7883 my brothers triumph was built on Pakistan

​@jameswalton8532 no it wasn't

@WyreForestBiker Assembly in Pakistan In the past, local companies in Karachi, Pakistan, assembled Triumph motorcycles. These companies included Universal, Polad, and Lotia.  Triumph factories Triumph motorcycles are currently made in factories around the world, including two factories in Hinckley, UK, three factories in Chonburi, Thailand, and one in Manaus, Brazil. Great British marque

BMW has the same niggling issues as does KTM. It’s not limited to Chinese bikes.

@oldngreybmx5573 up until this bike I only had BMW GS's, 4 of them. The last one being a GSA TE, top spec 21k bike. In June this year I was on the isle of arran and hit a pot hole on the main road. The suspension didn't like it and put the bike into limp mode. I had to be recovered back to Lancashire and it cost £1400 to have the bike put right. This was after £1600 the year before for the rear suspension that left me stranded in Wales. The argument that anything Chinese is rubbish is folly. I'll take an engine warning light all day long before I go back to established brands. Cheers James

@jameswalton8532 I'm not saying they're rubbish (or Chinese) I'm saying they are unfinished. The crf wouldn't have let you down like the BMW did. My point is the vogues, Benelli, kove ect will be very good for the price but they are cheap because loncin ect are trying to expand faster than they can develop a good machine.

The engine is original BMW. So you have a big dealership wordwirde

@glyncoates8253 I understand the snobbery surrounding Chinese branded bikes but it's so naive to mention it when so many established European bikes are built in China.

@@jameswalton8532 Needed to take the front wheel off my wife’s 300 gts vesper guess what on the casting was made in china . So how many components from the iconic Italian 🇮🇹 brand are made in china 🤦‍♂️

I don't think thats a daft suggestion, it's actually a good one, what is daft is that it's even a consideration due to the poor support for these bikes.

@wozza59 I thought about as I was in France last week on it. There's a voge dealer in calais but the ferry times were to early to catch them open.

@@jameswalton8532 I know the UA-camr ‘Nathan the postman’ rode a brand new Rieju 500 to Spain, where a local Rieju dealer was quite happy to do the 1st service on his bike.

@DavidSkidmore-e5t 🤣🤣🤣 I'll try to keep my videos a bit shorter. It was a bit long winded but unfortunately the whole process was a nightmare to figure out!

@jameswalton8532 no I meant the process not your vid took a bit of doing that upload 🤣🤣🤣👍

@@DavidSkidmore-e5t 👍👍

Agreed, they are following a current trend of releasing unfinished consumer goods for sale in the hope people buy them, do the r&d for them and update them as they go. In a few years time these bikes will be great but at the moment I'll be sticking with Honda and Yamaha. Motogb are awful, when I made the mistake of buying a new Benelli I had to wait 6 months for a fairing panel that was damaged before I'd buy the bloody thing.

@oldngreybmx5573 I agree, there's going to be teething troubles but at the price point I will bear with them for the foreseeable future. Theses small problems I'm having are nothing compared the trouble I had with my 'flagship' BMW. Is suppose I'm getting a good taste of both ends of the market.

Wouldn't buy Chinese I've looked at the bikes and there still way off Japanese and triumph bikes and then there's the ethical side on top.

@nationalinterest1 that's a fair point but I suppose someone's got to be the guinea pig! So far this issue is not big enough to cause me any regrets. Apart from this warning light the bike has been incredible

@@spiroskaltsoukalas9692 hopefully it will get better in the future

@colinharrison5501 probably! Ironically I'm going through the same problem with my partners audi TT. It's not a 'chinese' thing it's just another 1st world problem 👍

@@colinharrison5501 has the525 given you problems, I hear they are very good

@@stuartbrodie350 I've not heard that before, I'll give it a go👍

You're right, if you press and hold the navigation button for 2 seconds, it takes you to a list of fault codes, if there are any. Mine is currently showing no faults so I'm happy for now👍

@@AleksandarDragutinovic I hope so 🤞

Thanks. I'm hoping these are just teething troubles' and things will get sorted🤞

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a try!

Ah, same thing happened with Fantic 500s, bad batch of fuel pumps.

@robinlarge101 hi, if you haven't done it already, install the 4.4 software upgrade. It makes the fuel gauge follow the consumption more accurately. Cheers James

@zegrze hi, thanks for the comment. Yes they are the puppy grips and I didn't have to cut them down, I just soaked them in the hottest soapy water I could bear and they go on relatively easily. My phone was temporarily mounted using a fake quad lock but even with the rubber 'shock absorber' used, the phone still shakes too much and this will definitely damage the phone camera. I will now use either the built in navigation system on the bike or maybe mount a sat nav on the accessory bar I fitted. Regards, James

@@jameswalton8532hi James. I’ve only just come across your channel. Re the phone mount and vibrations, have a look at Ultimateaddons. I have an old iPhone mounted in one and it is very secure. It is also rubber lined so absorbs most of the vibrations; I have had no issues with camera damage.

@@jameswalton8532 Hi James, thanks for the reply, my puppies just cleared customs so a good soaking coming up. I have always had an issue with the thin Euro style grips, I dont have particularly large hands but have always found the wider American grip much better for me. Looking forwards to a video from you on the navigation decision. Zeg

@@MarkWebb-t6x hi, we got ours from 'uncle Wang's shop'. If you download his app you can order directly from him. We've had a few items from him now and not had any problems at all. His pipes are titanium so they are more expensive than others that are out there. Hope that helps, cheers James

@@colinmf thanks. No the bike isn't that noisy and there is'nt an emissions test for motorcycles on the MOT test so it will stay as it is👍

@@jameswalton8532 Cool! I've ordered one. :)

Nice one ,you won't regret it, I now feel the benefit of the air filter, I think I gives better performance higher in the rev range!​@@colinmf

@@RRaynorr hi, I'm really sorry but I don't know where you would find the update you need, if you haven't already, check on forums associated with your bike. I would say if you do find it, make a video and upload it for others 👍

@ Where did you get this software for 900dsx?

@@RRaynorr hi, have a look at 'motchrevolution' channel. He did an update video and put the link for the update in the video description. That's the link I used. Good luck👍

@@yasirg48 hi, a youtuber called 'motechrevolution' posted a link to the voge 900 update in the description of his update video, it's easy to find. I'm not sure where you would find the the update for your 250 bike, sorry. James

@@MrDarrendr cheers👍 the toolkit was a Christmas present from one of my boys, it's a 'wera' kit, they are a German company and very good quality. Regards James

@@dgrolfe it's a really old GoPro hero2, still gives a good quality picture but poor stabilization. I have up to date action camera's but just fancied using this one for a change👍

I seem to loose a lot of video quality when I upload on here!

@@spiroskaltsoukalas9692 thanks for the comment. Do you know how to get hold of the new update? James

@@nefelizografakiranjo9757 that's a fair point, maybe I'll do it again in the future. I do feel like the bike is still improving with time.👍
