Another Participant Dies while Travelling to RXZ Fighter Event

Another motorcyclist died on his way to the RXZ Fighter event which took place in Kuantan, Pahang last Friday and Saturday.

Maran District Police Chief, Superintendent Mohamad Zamri Mohamad Zaber said the rider, Mohammad Sharfie Sukri, 21, from Semporna, Sabah was involved in an accident with a lorry. He is riding a Yamaha Y15ZR.

“The motorcycle was in the left lane when it collided with the lorry and the victim was thrown onto the road and died at the scene,” he said.

He said the victim was in a convoy with 10 friends who also rode motorcycles to Kuantan to attend the RXZ Fighter event.

Two days ago, a trader also died in an accident while convoying to the same event.

Meanwhile, the event managed to attract 50,000 participants and visitors as targeted. The three main prizes for the draw which were a Ducati Panigale, as well as two Yamaha RX-Zs with airbrush patterns have been won.

Wahid's lust for motorcycles was spurred on by his late-Dad's love for his Lambretta on which he courted, married his mother, and took baby Wahid riding on it. He has since worked in the motorcycle and automotive industry for many years, before taking up riding courses and testing many, many motorcycles since becoming a motojournalist. Wahid likes to see things differently. What can you say about a guy who sees a road safety message in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell."
