“We, Hong Leong Yamaha Motor and PETRONAS, thus far have established a successful business relationship in several areas other than Motorsports. And this particular event with PDB, the official FUEL (PETRONAS PRIMAX 95 XTRA) sponsor, is another testimony to our collaborative work,” said Mr. Leong King Choon, General Manager, Sales & Marketing, Hong Leong Yamaha Motor.

Hong Leong Yamaha Motor has been actively organizing “Yamaha 135 LC Street Stylers” riding convoy to witness the Malaysian Motorcycle Grand Prix races since 1996. These riding convoys have continued to provide an exciting opportunity for its bikers to enjoy riding as a leisure activity as well as to meet new friends within the biking fraternity. Thus, creating a platform for the bikers to enjoy biking life-style without getting involved in unhealthy biking culture. It is also an event deliberately organized to indirectly inculcate road safety-consciousness amongst bikers. Hence, all riders are constantly monitored and supervised by our marshals throughout the journey to ensure traffic rules and regulations are strictly observed for safety of the participants.
