The fact that Loncin’s premium brand, Voge, had a 650cc sports model on the way was well known, and we had already talked about it before the summer. The model had the provisional name of Infinity RR660 and the data disclosed at a Voge convention spoke of 100 hp of maximum power for the four-cylinder engine, which reached 13,000 rpm.
A few days ago, the motorcycle was presented in its final version at the CIMA show in China, with the suggestive name of RR666S, a very aggressive acronym.
In short, Voge does not hold back and “bangs on the table” with a very complete motorcycle, capable of reaching and exceeding 240 km/h, with a first speed of over 100 km/h on the track and an acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds.
The motion control unit and cornering ABS are present, with a front braking system with Brembo radial calipers, a single-sided swingarm, under-engine exhaust system, steering damper, Kayaba suspension, aerodynamic wings on the fairing, and Pirelli tires. Neither the weight nor the price have been announced yet.
Less clear is the frame material (steel or aluminum?) and it is probably still too early to ask if we will see it in Portugal: the 4-cylinder super sports segment has suffered major impacts following anti-pollution regulations and the market seems to have now shifted to 700/900 cc sports bikes, with affordable costs and a performance of about 80/100 hp, far from the over 110 hp of the latest 600 cc models.
To date, the only “road-legal” 600 cc super sport bike we expect in Europe is the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R, a 636 cc four-cylinder engine that produces, with the Ram Air pressurized system, 129 hp at 13,000 rpm.
