There is a Vog 260, which is also the TBX 260, and there was also a 300 in the Vog body put out recently. Use the google search panel for these brands or xy260. I have one, and I think they are discussed generally favorably, especially ones with the monoshock and upgraded front forks. For example, scootdawg.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=200cc&thread=23299&page=1#232425 There was only one guy here who had the 300 that I could recall (might be from another site), and I remember he liked it. I can try and answer a specific question about the 260 which might have applicability to the 300 if you'd like. |

I'm the guy with the VOG 300.
I loved it. Until today.
With less than 2800 miles on it, a rod started knocking today.
On the way in to work.
We are not happy campers.
I've never heard of a basic engine failure in a VOG before; usually it's electrical gremlins. But...right now I'm not loving Chinese.

no, they go forever, or blow up quickly. i blew a top end in 1300 miles. my head had a failure, the cam pretty much exploded inside the head, nothing escaped the head, just the head, cam, rockers, are toasted
so i have a 1300 mile short block sitting in my garage. i want piston, rings, jug and need a new head. already have lifters and cam and all other new stuff,
