Cyclone RA600 Previewed – RM25,888

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.

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."
