About Orcal
Country of Origin:
France

DIP (Distributeur Importateur de Provence)
Best Known For:
Retro-styled 125–300 cc roadsters and scooters curated for European riders
Company History
Orcal is a French brand that pairs European styling and homologation with globally manufactured platforms to deliver charming, affordable 125–300 cc machines. The promise is straightforward: classic looks, ABS/CBS where required, EFI that starts in winter, and dealer support that keeps costs predictable. The Astor-style roadsters and tidy scooters hit learner markets and commuters who want character without premium pricing. DIP’s role as importer-manufacturer matters: corrosion-aware fasteners, clear French documentation, and parts on the shelf transform value hardware into low-drama ownership. Historically, Orcal exemplifies the European distributor brand done right—tasteful design, sensible equipment, and aftersales that respects riders’ time—broadening access to stylish two-wheel transport.
