LEJOG is done. Portugal is next.
In 100 days, my Voge DS625X heads to Portugal to take on ACT Portugal — but before then, the bike needs work.
LEJOG proved a lot about the Voge DS625X. It covered the miles, carried the kit, handled bad weather, long days, motorway miles, back roads and everything in between. But it also exposed a few weak points.
Over the next few weeks, I’ll be rebuilding and refining the bike for Portugal, including luggage, riding gear, protection, navigation, security, tyres, suspension and the one part of the bike that concerns me most — the footrest hangers.
This is not a money-no-object adventure build. It is a real-world Voge DS625X adventure bike being improved one piece at a time.
LEJOG proved what the Voge could do.
Portugal is going to test what it can become.

You will be more than stunned with my country. Welcome Sir. Keep updated with the "normal" wildfires during summer in the mountains. I have the same bike by the way 🙂
This should be good 👍
Looking forward to that one! 😎
After your LEJOG trip looking forward to your next trip, in the meantime, ride safe 😊
Remember an extra clutch cable, they are weak on the model. 👍
It will be interesting to see what you do about the footrest hangars
