2012 Yamaha 125ZR Now Available at BLH Motor!

After Mr. Thanawi sent me the SMS about the availability of the 2012 Y125ZR, BLH Motor has uploaded new images of the 2012 Y125ZR in their FB fan page and shows that they have ready stock of the bike. I also have called GTMax and they also confirmed that the bike is already at their shop. So, I think this means that the bike is also available at the shop near you (not sure if you are in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan). So, check it out at the shop soonest! Check out more pictures right now, no need to check after the jump!

Price is about RM7500-RM7900 OTR including 1st party all rider insurance and road tax depends on the shop. (Translation: Harga Yamaha 125ZR biru adalah RM7500-RM7900 atas jalan termasuk 1st party all-rider insurans dan cukai jalan)

2012 Repsol Honda RC213V Debuts in Sepang, Malaysia

stoner_pedrosa_original — Casey Stoner and Dani Pedrosa with the Repsol Honda RC213V

Repsol Honda Team has unveiled their RC213V racing machine here in Sepang, Malaysia for the testing today (31st Jan). The bike carries the familiar livery in red, orange and black combination which always looks great and fast.

Casey Stoner now ride with the number ‘1’ race plate since he is the 2011 MotoGP Champion. Dani Pedrosa rides with the ’26’ number race plate. I’m hoping there will be a very competitive battle for this 2012 MotoGP season.

This is Honda RC213V for Dani Pedrosa

Another tweet. This time it is the bike for Dani Pedrosa. It is the RC213V which looks the same with the one for Casey Stoner, but it is equipped with different all new chassis as requested by the rider in Valencia. It is said that RC213V has an output of 230hp! Much more power than Honda Civic FD 1.8 at only 140hp.
