Bike Blog: Hunting The Snark

Bikes and Girls. That’s like a perpetual lethal combination ever since there was motorcycle.

Of course you wouldn’t think that’s the only content worth reading on this blog by Mohan. His readers certainly ride some nice bikes.

Mohan hails from Malaysia. One thing for sure, it’s nice to meet a rider nearer home. I wonder if there is any motorcycle bloggers in Singapore. Perhaps busy chasing after cars.

Motorcycle Maker: MODENAS

MODENAS, short for Motosikal Dan Enjin Nasional Sdn. Bhd, is a Malaysia motorcycle manufacturer.

Like its car counterpart Proton, Modenas is a national project started to produce a Malaysian brand motorcycle.

With Kawasaki as the technology partner and 19% shareholder, the company was started in 1995.

The first Modenas I noticed on the road was the Jaguh a few years back.

Some Asian motorcycle manufacturers

Have you seen Daelim, KYMCO or MODENAS outside of Asia? Drop me a feedback if you have.

From Korea, Taiwan and Malaysia respectively, they mainly produce small capacity motorcycles more common in Asia.

Our manufacturer tour will be looking at them next.
