The supermoto is a crazy-fun motorcycle as it offers the flickability of a road bike and the plush suspension of an off-roader. Also known as motard, this type of bike epitomizes the “do anything, go anywhere” mentality in motorcycling. The Kawasaki KLX300SM is the perfect specimen of what a supermoto should be. Its enduro-racer roots give this motorcycle a strong base for off-road riding potential. Its responsive engine in a lightweight, rider-friendly chassis with high-grade suspension, enable

The Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association (MDPPA), achieved a collective sales milestone with a remarkable 932,220 units sold from January to July 2023. The MDPPA is comprised of the country's four largest motorcycle brands – Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha. It reflects a 4.6-percent increase compared to the same period last year, which saw sales totaling 890,720 units. With this development, MDPPA conducted a comprehensive review of its sales targets for the latter part of

We do love to document and romanticize our motorcycle journeys on social media, yes? If you’re a Shell Advance motor oil user, you might be able to get something out of your posts aside from the thumbs up from your followers. Just use the hashtag #ShellAdvanceRideNgBuhayMo in your posts and get a chance to win giveaways and prizes from Shell Advance. To give recognition to the vibrant community of Filipino riders, Shell Advance announced in an August 2023 press statement that it has launched the

With the rising number of motorcycle-based taxis and delivery services, there’s a corresponding increase in the population of two-wheeled vehicles on the road. Unfortunately, this upward trend has also resulted in a higher incidence of motorcycle road crashes in the first four months of 2023. The Philippine National Police Highway Patrol Group has reported approximately 4,000 incidents from January to April this year, which already account for nearly half of the 8,342 incidents recorded in the w

Even the bad weather could not stop the much-awaited official launch of Corsa Tires Philippines’ motorcycle tires product line-up. Dubbed the “Corsa Supremacy Unleashed,” the event was held last July 14 at Moto Towne, in Bridgetowne, Pasig City. The event featured exhilarating stunt shows to demonstrate the reliability and durability of Corsa Tires. The demonstrations highlighted how these tires excel in both daily heavy-use riding and daring motorsport activities, and they delivered non-stop ex

Last weekend, Yamaha took their Mio Gear Playground campaign to SM City Cebu, and I was privileged to witness the action-packed mall event in person. This activity aims to highlight the robustness and versatility of the Yamaha Mio Gear. Indeed, it is one tough scooter, despite its relatively modest 125cc displacement. In fact, I’ve already had the pleasure of riding it through lahar to go moto camping. It would seem that the Mio Gear could do anything and go anywhere except maybe traverse the to

We have been clamoring for the local release of the Kawasaki Eliminator 400 since its official launch in Japan early this year. When it made its global debut at the Bangkok Motor Show last March, cruiser fans from neighboring countries became more hopeful that they would soon be able to ride home the latest iteration of Kawasaki’s iconic cruiser. For the youngins who are not in the know, the Kawasaki Eliminator cruiser line was introduced by Kawasaki in the mid-80s with different displacements,

The Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association, Inc. (MDPPA) recorded a 16.7 percent increase in the country’s motorcycle sales this Q1 of 2023. Its four members include Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, and Yamaha. A total of 447,429 units were sold between January and March 2023. This number is only about 3,500 less than the 451,103 pre-pandemic figure in 2019. “We hope that the performance of the first quarter will be sustained. The market is so volatile as influenced by internal and exte

In a study from the International Labour Organization, approximately 53 percent of Filipinos are informal workers, who are not covered by labor laws. As such, it’s vital to ensure that they have access to viable livelihood opportunities that can allow them to have a steady income and access to social protections. That is why app-based motorcycle taxi company MOVE IT introduced the Advertiser Vests Program – an industry-first alternative income stream allowing rider-partners to earn more money fr

Be ready to don your Sunday best, swing a leg over your favorite classic bike, and join this year’s Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride on the 21st of May. Who in his right mind would wear a three-piece suit while riding a motorcycle during summertime? Well, those who are serious about raising funds and awareness to combat prostate cancer and men’s mental health issues…and also those who are nuts about classic bikes, that's who. The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) was founded in Sydney, Australi

Motortrade, the country’s leading motorcycle dealer, introduced its newly formed racing team that will compete in the 2023 Philippine Superbikes (PSBK) series. The Motortrade x WRD powered by Kawasaki Racing Team’s two-bike entry for the 2023 season of the PSBK consists of a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10RR and a Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R. Racing for the team will be former PSBK Champion and WRD Head Coach Dashi Watanabe, together with IRGP champion and 2022 Pirelli Cup Supersports Lightweight Open Champion Ca

Kawasaki introduced the world-renowned Pulsar line in the Philippine market at the 2023 Makina Moto Show to replace the well-loved Rouser series. The N250 is the first of multiple Pulsar models to be launched locally under the Kawasaki-Bajaj partnership. The Rouser series was introduced to the Philippines more than a decade ago as the motorcycle for the everyday alpha rider. At the time, while Pulsar was already internationally established, Kawasaki chose to create its own brand footprint by int

During this long weekend, I am sure that most of us went on a trip somewhere to escape the city's chaotic vibe. Predictably, the tollways were packed with vehicles due to the exodus of travelers around the same period (Wednesday evening to Thursday morning). Expect the same today, Easter Sunday, and tomorrow, April 10th, when everyone returns from their weekend out-of-towner. Woe to those driving a car with crappy air-conditioning as they look on while high-displacement motorcycles filter throug

So, why are we so excited about the soon-to-be-launched KYMCO KRV Moto 180? Well, because, unlike most scooters, this one is fitted with a chain drive. Not only is this uncommon, but it is also indicative of the KRV’s sporty character. What’s up with that, anyway? How come scooters run on belts while most sport bikes are chain-driven? Also, what’s the deal with shaft drives? Well, the primary function of a final drive system is to transfer power from the engine to the rear wheel to propel the mo

After making its global debut just last month, we were expecting the local launch of the Kawasaki ZX-4RR to happen sometime around April. Kawasaki Motor Philippines, however, had other ideas. To the delight of Filipino sportbike fans, an official unveiling of the ZX-4RR was held on the morning of March 7, 2023 at Kawasaki Makati. Visitors and would-be ZX-4RR buyers got the chance to be the first ones to hear the mighty roar of its 401 cc, liquid-cooled, in-line four engine. The rev counter redli

So we got kicked out of Moto Streat; now what? Let this be a lesson to us riders, lest we also risk becoming unwelcome at other tambike venues. We are already being discriminated as it is because of the negative image of motorcyclists to the general public. Must we give justification for their prejudice? Why not be on our best behavior instead whenever we are at biker hangouts so we can prove them wrong? Here’s a list of basic tambike etiquette to observe at public venues. Park your bike in the

Para sa akin, astig ang Kawasaki kung i-kukumpara sa ibang “big four” brands. Parang breath of fresh air and dating sa akin ng pagka non-PC (politically correct) na brand image nito. Sa Kawasaki launches lang din ako nakakakita ng pole dancers. Ang lupit, ‘di ba? Bilib din ako sa marketing style nila na madalas ay nakaka one-up sa competition. Parang noong inilabas ng Honda ang kinikilala ng karamihan na isa sa mga unang superbike, ang CB750, noong 1968. Tinapatan agad ito ng Kawasaki ng sarili

Ang Bonifacio Global City (BGC) sa Taguig ay unang nakilala natin na may pagka anti-motorcycles dahil sa mga ipinapatupad na mga regulations dito. Maraming ditong establishments na kahit may parking space ay hindi pinapayagang mag-park ang mga motor. Sa mga pay parking ay madalas bawal din ang motor at kung mayroon man na puwede ay ito iyong mga nasa outskirts na ng BGC kaya malayo ang iyong lalakarin lalo na kung ang pupuntahan mo ay nasa sentro ng commercial district na ito. Kaya naman laking

Tayong mga motorcycle riders ay may pagka-clannish, may tendency tayo na i-exclude ang mga tao o grupo na iba sa atin. Kaya naman natural lamang na mag-develop tayo ng sariling sub-culture, mga pag-uugaling madalas ma-oobserbahan lang sa mga kapwa riders din. At siyempre, para mas madali tayo maka-identify sa ating mga ka-gulong ay nag-develop din tayo ng rider slang. Heto ang mga rider slang na madalas mong maririnig sa mga tambike sessions. Takbong chubby Ito ang pag-ride ng motor na chill lan

Bakit nga ba kapag sa tren, bus or eroplano, ang “business class” ay sosyal, pero pag dating naman sa motorsiklo, kapag sinabing “business” wa-class? Ganyan tayo e, kung alin ang nagpapasok ng income, yun pa ang nilalait natin. Ang mga motorcycle models sa business segment ay ang mga motor na dinisensyo para gamitin pang-deliver, pang-tricycle…sa madaling sabi, pang-trabaho. Kaya naman mas kilala ito sa tawag na “pantra”, for short. Pero ngayong mas ginagamit na rin na pang-deliver ang mga under
