This spyshot of the all new Modenas bike with monoshock chassis shows that it is different that what we have seen in the Kawasaki Athlete 125. This one have a shape that resemble a normal moped. Anyway, there is some interesting curve at the front area of the bike. The fairing looks modern which is unusual for Modenas bike.  (more…)

Kawasaki Athlete 125 - the base model for all new Modenas bike?

MM reader, Norhisham Parjoh (thanks bro!), has commented on the MM FB page with a link to a picture of the Kawasaki Athlete 125. This bike is rated at 125cc 4-stroke type engine. If the picture here is the base model for the all new Modenas, I think many riders in Malaysia will be happy.

The rumors earlier states that the monoshock chassis will follow the setup of the near-horizontal monoshock setup like the one we see on the Kawasaki ER-6. This Athlete 125 really have that kind of monoshock setup as shown in the picture. The lower spec model is the Kawasaki Fury 125 which has stainless steel wheel with front brake disc only. The price for this bike is estimated at USD1,380(RM4,179) in Philippines.

I writing this news based on input by readers and by my guess only. I don’t know if this is the all new bike from Modenas.  (more…)

 

I got an info from a very STRONG source that said that Modenas will be releasing all new bike with new monoshock chassis this 1st March. This surely adds the value to Modenas brand. The monoshock chassis are said to have the same setup like the Kawasaki ER-6 which is positioned in about 45 degree angle, compared other moped monoshock which is straight setup.

This has been a very long wait for Malaysian riders as we all want a high tech moped for Malaysian road from Modenas. Let us all see what Modenas got to offer this March. Is it going to be front and rear disc brake equipped? Will it be powerful bike? Will it have a great design? And what is the name of the bike?

Suzuki Malaysia has updated the decals for the SkyDrive 125. Previously it just in plain colour with very few decals on it, now it is more fancy and can attract younger buyer.  The price for this SkyDrive 125 is RM5,168.00 without registration. (more…)

Genata RC-125 is a bike made in China that resembles the design of the popular Yamaha YZF-R125. Does this mean that this Genata RC-125 is a ‘copy’ bike?
I remembered that Yamaha first bike, the Yamaha YA-1 is a bike that has taken the design cues and engine technology from the DKW RT125 bike.
So, how does Genata and Yamaha different than each other?
Open for discussion. (more…)

I found this picture randomly after searching for more info about the 125Z M1 livery. This is a good bike for European riders since the bike is only distributed there. It is a 4-stroke bike though. Giving the bike a livery scheme base on the Yamaha YZR-M1 adds up another point of desire factor to it. At that time in 2009, Rossi is still the rider for Yamaha team.
