If only people knew it essentially a tarted up version of the cheapest two stroke models that essentially performed the same work just as good as each other.
G'day all,
I do not think this is the case at all.

When Bob Hawke publically released the Vortex in 1983, the Vortex was
a radical new design.

As Converse has noted, the Vortex was special - with its new blade holder
[CSIRO] and low silhouette, raked design [Cube Industrial Design].

But folks seem to have forgotten that the Vortex also introduced a
radical new engine with this model ... The Powertorque!

The Powertorque would be used on other models the following season.
