X-Wedge, the super cruiser brand from China is heading to Malaysia.

Unlike other Chinese manufacturers who build their businesses from smaller capacity motorcycles upwards, X-Wedge concentrates on cruisers with massive engines that are inspired by big cubed American V-Twins, albeit closer in look to Indian rather than Harley-Davidson motorcycles. X-Wedge made their debut on 9th September 2023 and is a subsidiary of the Huansong Industrial Group based in Chongqing, China who have in business since 1988.

Their catalog is bolstered by a 5-model line up, with four utilising their sub-2000cc V-Twin engine. This monster engine is said to have been derived from S&S, the maker of performance V-Twin engines that grace custom motorcycle makers such as the now-defunct Titan and even Orange County Motorcycles.

X-Wedge’s ‘big block’ engine (our term to distinguish it from the smaller engine – Ed.) features rare, square dimensions of 108mm bore x 108mm stroke. You have 1979cc when multiplied by two cylinders. As per cruiser convention, the engine has OHV (overhead valves) that are activated by pushrods. It produces a claimed 103 HP at 5,000 RPM and 158 Nm of torque at 3,000 RPM. That is a cruiser powerband right there.

However, the compression ratio is rather low for a modern motorcycle at only 9.75:1. Could it be that the manufacturer is thinking of forced induction or increased stroke by themselves in the future, or an avenue for customers to do so? Maybe. Anyhow, that low compression ratio means you can run the bike on low octane petrol, so no problem if you ride to some remote location.

Also, no less impressive is that X-Wedge already has a large aftermarket and lifestyle collection. Their main concept store also includes an Ace Café.

X-Wedge model range

Let us take a look at their line up.

Ranger RX2000

Starting from the basic cruiser is the Ranger RX2000. It features an unmistakable low-slung and a long wheelbase, hardtail look, with several modern touches. The one in our picture show a sportier paint scheme but the company’s website shows a bike with plenty of chrome. It is powered by the ‘big block’ engine. Fuel is carried in an 18-litre tank and the bike weighs 350 kg.

Rover RL2000

This is the touring variant based on the Ranger. It is complete with a large upper fairing, leg shields, footboards, side cases, upper case with passenger backrest and arm rests. It has an 18-litre fuel tank and weighs 420 kg.

Vanguard VT2000

This is based off the Rover RL2000, but with two rear wheels, making it a trike. As with the other two, it uses the ‘big block’ engine, has an 18-litre tank and weighs a whopping 505 kg.

Voyager VS2000

It is basically a Ranger RX2000 with a sidecar. As such, it shares the Ranger’s specifications. Weight is claimed at 490 kg.

Walker WR1000

The Walker WR1000 features a complete break from the other cruiser conventions, featuring a futuristic look and two front wheels like the Cam-Am. It is powered by a 121 cubic inch (975cc) V-Twin which produces 81 HP and 80 Nm of torque. Power is delivered to the rear wheel via a belt, after going through a CVT. And yes, it has a reverse gear.

Models headed to Malaysia

We found out that the three models headed to Malaysia are the Ranger RX2000, Rover RL2000, and Vanguard VT2000. All three will be Completely Knocked Down and assembled here, hence the attractive starting price of around RM 90,000. The local distributor, MForce Bikes Sdn. Bhd. plans to open concept shops in Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Sabah, and Sarawak.

The Cyclone RA600 was also launched alongside the RE600 retro scrambler and RT3e scooter.

While the RE600 takes on the shape of a retro scrambler, the RA600 is a retro bobber/cruiser with several futuristic touches. Both share the same 550cc parallel-twin engine which produces 58 HP and 55 Nm torque. Likewise, the chassis and brakes are the same, although the RA600 has a single disc brake with the same J.Juan front brake caliper.

Apart from that, the RA660 has a different, girder-style, front end, seating position, and foot placement. Additionally, the bike uses a belted final drive instead of the chain on the RE600. Also, the wheels are 16-inches on both ends for that low-down riding attitude. There are adjustments for the “forks.”

The fuel tank hold 14.5 litres, the lighting is via LED, while electronics include dual-channel ABS, and traction control system.

The Cyclone RE600 was previewed along with the Cyclone RT3e scooter. It should arrive in Malaysia by June 2025.

MForce actually launched two models based on the 600cc platform in the same event. One was this RE600 retro scrambler and the RA600 retro bobber. They also launched the RX650 adventure bike.

As such, the RE600 is fitted with the 550.5cc parallel-twin engine which produces 58 HP at 8,500 RPM and 55 NM of torque at 6,500 RPM. Top speed is claimed at 170 km/h. Traction control system (TCS) is standard.

The chassis consists of a steel tube frame, upside-down forks in front, and a monoshock at the rear. Stopping duty is handled by twin disc brakes up front and a single disc brake at the back. The brakes are backed up by ABS. Both wheels are 17-inches in size.

Other features include a round LED headlight, together with an LED rear light, and turn signals. As with modern motorcycles, the instrument panel is a full-colour TFT screen.

Fuel is contained in a large, 20-litre tank and seat height is a low 800 mm.

The Cyclone RT3e scooter was recently previewed.

Cyclone brand is the premium brand of motorcycles under Zongshen Industrial Group. The group primarily builds locomotives in their home country.

The Cyclone RT3e is positioned as a “modern classic” scooter with vintage looks and contemporary features.

Power is provided by a single-cylinder 247cc, DOHC, four-valve, EFI, liquid-cooled, four-stroke engine, which produces 24.8 HP (19.5 kW) at 7,500 RPM and 24.5 Nm at 6,500 RPM. By comparison, those figures are higher than that produced by the Yamaha XMax 250’s engine.

On the chassis front, wheels are 12-inches at both ends. The brakes are disc on the front and rear, assisted by ABS. The bike has a traction control system (TCS), too.

Do note that the spec sheets claimed a 10-litre fuel tank at the launch, which differs from the 13-litres in the RT2e. Still, a 750mm seat height and 162kg dry sound good.

Lighting is LED all around with backlit buttons, and a digital instrument panel.

The Cyclone RT3e was launched at RM 12,888. It is now available at Cyclone dealerships around the country.

A driver who circled his car hundreds of times around a roundabout in Kluang, Johor, has been confirmed to be suffering from schizophrenia.

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that affects how a patient thinks, feels, and behaves. They may have difficulty distinguishing between reality and their own thoughts or imagination. Among the symptoms are hearing ‘commands’ or ‘conversations’ with non-existent people. (Similar to the movie The Sixth Sense.)

Kluang District Police Chief, Assistant Commissioner Bahrin Mohd Noh, said the car was driven by a man in his 50s with a valid B2 and D driving license until 2027.

However, he stated that the car belongs to the driver’s older brother.

The driver had previously received treatment at Hospital Permai, Johor Bahru, in 2020 and 2021 for mental illness.

Recently, he has been receiving treatment at Hospital Enche’ Besar Hajjah Khalsom, Kluang, for schizophrenia.

The patient is still undergoing treatment at the PSY Clinic and has a treatment card,” he said.

Earlier, he mentioned that the police received a report regarding the incident at 8:20 PM the previous night.

The vehicle was successfully stopped by police officers about 10 minutes later. No accidents or injuries were reported,” he said.

At the same time, Bahrin advised the family not to allow the man to leave the house without family members and to prohibit him from driving.

A 57-second video went viral, showing a Perodua Axia driver allegedly driving around the Mahkota Roundabout here hundreds of times from morning until night.

The video clearly shows the car circling while flashing emergency hazard lights.

MODENAS organised an event to handover the 2025 Kawasaki ZX-6R to the first 100 owners in the country today.

The event was held at the Sepang International Circuit, giving the owners their first feel of their bikes in its natural habitat.

The day kicked off with registrations and interviews with several owners. Next, a convoy consisting of the owners were guided around the track. However, perhaps the true highlight of the day was an exclusive track day for the media and owners who had brought their race suits along.

From the press release:

Motosikal & Enjin Nasional Sdn Bhd (“MODENAS”), a subsidiary of DRB-HICOM Berhad (“DRB-HICOM”) rolled out the red carpet, or more accurately the racetrack, for the first 100 proud owners of the brand-new Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R at Paddock 1, Sepang International Circuit. With 350 excited attendees including Kawasaki dealers, die-hard fans and the media, it wasn’t just a handover — it was a full-throttle celebration!

Leading the festivities was Yusaku Kashiwagi, Chief Marketing Officer of MODENAS, who personally handed over the keys and welcomed new owners to the Kawasaki family. “This is not just a bike delivery. This is the moment Kawasaki is fulfilling the passion of its fans who love performance and pure adrenaline. The Ninja ZX-6R is built for those who crave speed and precision, and today, our customers get to experience that firsthand on the legendary Sepang track,” said Kashiwagi.

And experience it they did! The new owners wasted no time revving up their engines and hitting the track for their first exhilarating ride on their brand-new supersport machines. Adding to the thrill, the media was also treated to exclusive test rides on the Sepang circuit.

The demand for the 2024 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R has been nothing short of phenomenal. When the pre-booking campaign kicked off in November 2024, MODENAS initially expected to secure 50 units. However, due to overwhelming demand, the number of units was doubled to 100 units — effectively selling out the first and second batches of deliveries in record time!

So, what makes the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R such a game-changer? Let’s talk specs! Powered by a 636cc inline-four engine, this beast delivers heart-racing performance with smooth acceleration and torque. It comes packed with advanced electronics, including a quick shifter, three-mode traction control, and multiple power modes to match any rider’s style. The Showa Separate Function Big Piston Forks ensure razor-sharp handling, while the 4.3” TFT dash with smartphone connectivity keeps you informed and in control, no matter where you ride.

And here’s the best part — MODENAS is offering the latest 2024 model at an unbeatable price of RM59,900, a massive drop from the previous 2018 model RM79,900 price tag thanks to the bike now being assembled locally in its plant in Gurun, Kedah. That’s power, performance, and value all wrapped into one thrilling package!

“This model is built for the track, but it’s also ready to dominate the streets. At this price point, the Ninja ZX-6R is the ultimate supersport machine for riders who want the best of both worlds,” Kashiwagi added.

With cutting-edge features, an aggressive design, and an unbeatable price, the Ninja ZX-6R is ready to redefine the mid-weight supersport category. Whether you’re a seasoned rider or looking for your next adrenaline rush, this machine is built to thrill.
