Title: 1993 VOR 550 ridden by Joel Smets
Post by: bishboy on January 12, 2016, 06:10:32 pm

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Smets ride for Husaberg in 93 and Vor in 94?

You'd be more confident if the seller knew who made it...

Don't know my VOR's well but its a 98 model (according to the VIN). Joel rode for Vertemati up to 93/94 which later became Vertemati Off Road or VOR as we now know it.

Joel won his 1st world title in 1995 on a Husaberg.

I think the black one should be a '99 model.
The blue one as a production bike should be a '97 from what I was told from the importer at the time. Same as the one that was stolen from me.
The Vertemati that Smets would have rode I thought would have been black?

Smets never rode for VOR.
And the Vertemati he rode looked nothing like that blue one.
Just BS.

I have a '99 Husaberg FC600, Joel did ride one of those in his racing career, perhaps I should tell everyone he rode the one I have.
