Each nominated motorcycle was fully tested by a panel consisting of veteran members of the media, as well as veteran hardcore bikers and casual bikers.

The choice of panel members was made to provide a balanced review to benefit motorcycle buyers with a wide range of riding and technical skills through real-world-based information. Too many times have we seen buyers regretting their decisions in buying their motorcycles after following the review of a particular type of rider who is more ‘in tune’ with a different type of motorcycle. Thus the panel of judges include Datuk Capt. Nik Huzlan and Jehan Miskin.

To ensure neutrality, no fee was levied. In other words, there was and is no charge to participate, use of the event’s logo in the participants’ marketing communication material, sponsorship or marketing fee to the winners post event. Additionally, there is no fee to attend the gala dinner. Even the parking is free!

The Allianz – BikesRepublic.com Motorcycle of the Year Awards 2025 gala dinner will be held this week, so stay tuned for the winners list.
