Club heritage
Classic vintage enduro bikes (pre-1999)
A growing catalogue of old-school trail and enduro iron from 1999 working backwards — the machines Vinduro WA is all about. Specs (hp, torque, gearbox, weight) are approximate period claims for a fun read, not a workshop manual — figures vary by year and market.
Open Full notes & specs on any bike for the tidy layout (intro + engine / suspension / dimensions). Adding yours? Just year, make, model, engine size + photo — tap Fill specs with AI and Ara does the rest (same pretty card as the catalogue).
