  • Welly Sungai Buloh is the official dealer for Ducati and KTM Motorcycles, among others. 
  • Adding to its portfolio, Welly Sungai Buloh is now the official dealer for Moto Guzzi and Aprilia motorcycles in Malaysia.
  • Besides selling Moto Guzzi and Aprilia bikes, Welly Sungai Buloh will also offer after sales support for both brands. 

Welly World Cycle is a household name when it comes to buying new or used bikes and motorcycle accessories. The company is as synonymous with motorcycles as teh tarik is as synonymous with Malaysia.

Welly has been distributing big brand motorcycles for many years now, and does not just sell bikes but also has the know-how to maintain motorcycles through a well trained after sales team.

For years the company has been selling motorcycles from brands such as Ducati, Yamaha and even KTM to much success. The company has now expanded its business and is now the official dealer for Aprilia and Moto Guzzi motorcycles in Malaysia.

Welly World Cycle, or better known as Welly Sungai Buloh was appointed as official dealer for Aprilia and Moto Guzzi motorcycles recently, and will also provide after sales service for all Aprilia and Moto Guzzi owners in Malaysia.

Speaking of Welly’s appointment, Juan Chow Wee (above, left), General Manager of Didi Resources Sdn Bhd, said, “We believe in finding the correct partner as this is important as we work together to build and develop the brand and its lifestyle. Welly World Cycle has a strong proven track record in delivering the best motorcycle ownership experience to its buyers by connecting to its owners personally”.

On behalf of Welly World Cycle, Ngo Yoke Kwang (better known as Ah Kwang, above), Managing Director said, “I am really happy to welcome these two legendary brands into our company portfolio. I believe 100% in strong after sales service, and believe that before selling any motorcycle brand, I need to ensure that the appropriate after sales support is in place. With Aprilia and Moto Guzzi, I want to create strong after sales support for both brands, so my customers know that they have the right support when they buy a Aprilia or a Moto Guzzi from us.”

“A Moto Guzzi is a lifestyle motorcycle with a great build quality, with the right type of after sales support, I am confident that my customers will have a good ownership experience. As for Aprilia, it is a motorcycle that does not need any introduction. It has amazing power and performance and all it needs to be the ultimate motorcycle to own is a good after sales network, to which I am fully committed to building for Aprilia buyers who purchase their Aprilia motorcycle from Welly World Cycle,” continued Kwang, pictured above with son Kim Seng and daughter Bee who is also the Champion of the MSF Superbike Championship.

Welly World Cycle has now begun all Moto Guzzi sales with prices starting from RM56,8000 for the V7 III Stone, and RM65,700 for the V7 III Racer and more attractive prices for other models in the Moto Guzzi range. Test ride models for the V7 III and the V9 are also available.

  • We had taken the first look at the 2018 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough earlier.

  • DIDI Resources has now officially launched it.

  • Priced from RM 69,900 for introductory units and RM 75,000 thereafter (prices are basic selling prices with SST, but no on-the-road).

DIDI Resources, the official custodians of the Moto Guzzi Malaysia, has officially launched 2018 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough. We had the first look of the bike earlier.

First Look Review: 2018 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough

The V7 III Rough is the latest addition to the V7 III’s extensive model line-up which includes the recently launched Carbon, Anniversario, Racer, Stone, Special, besides the Limited and Milano that are not available in Malaysia, as yet.

Moto Guzzi Malaysia introduces limited edition V7 III Carbon – Priced at RM74,900

The V7 III line-up not only represents the Moto Guzzi’s entry-level motorcycles, but also the most customizable, which is why there are so many interpretations within the manufacturer itself.

Coming back to the Rough iteration, the bike rolls on knobby tyres mounted on spoked rims, for a version that screams “urban jungle basher.” That should mean the bike is made for conquering rough city roads, as well as shooting through an unpaved shortcut. It also should be fine for light off-road paths, say to camping sites like those at Janda Baik or Mat Daling, to name a few.

In the V7 III signature minimalistic style, the front and rear fenders are polished aluminium while the fuel tank is finished in matt silver. The headlamp nacelle, handlebars, engine and single-sided swingarm are powercoated in black. The fork stanchions are enclosed in classic dust gaiters. A black leather seat with classy red stitching adds the finishing touch.

Moto Guzzi also offers an extensive array of accessories for the rider to turn his V7 III Rough into a bike which better reflects his personality.

Powering the V7 III Rough is the same 750cc, air-cooled, pushrod-activated 2-valve-per-cylinder, transversely-mounted, 90o V-Twin lump which made its debut in 1967. It produces 52bhp at 6,200 RPM and 60 Nm of torque at 4,900 RPM. The engine is tuned to provide linear torque throughout its rev range.

The engine and longitudinal gearbox are then mounted to a dismountable double-cradle frame with the same weight distribution as the legendary V7 of 46% rear and 54% front. Dual Kayaba shocks suspend the swingarm (which contains the driveshaft on one side) from the frame. This configuration provides the bike with a low and accessible seat height of just 770 mm.

While Moto Guzzi is considered the “heritage” brand under the Piaggio Group, the motorcycles are anything but, as despite being the entry-level range, the V7 III line-up features a two-level Moto Guzzi Traction Control (MGCT) and a two-channel ABS system made by Continental.

Further on electronics, the single speedometer gauge may look basic, but it displays all pertinent data such as gear position, odometer and daily trip odometer, trip time, average speed, real-time and average fuel consumption, average speed and MGCT level. The minimum and maximum engine revs can also be preset.

The instrument display may also be updated with the optional Moto Guzzi Multimedia Platform which connects a smartphone via an app to present even more data to the rider.

In launching the Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough, it also pays tribute to the upcoming Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride (DGR) 2018 (happening on 30th September 2018), Mr. Simone Niccolai, the Managing Director of Asia Pacific 2Wheeler, Piaggio Asia Pacific, dressed the part for the occasion with attired supplied by Tiga Supply Co. together with the management personnel of DIDI Resources and Stronghold Cycles.

The 2018 Moto Guzzi V7 III Rough is priced at RM 69,900 for introductory units and RM 75,000 thereafter (prices are basic selling prices with SST, but no on-the-road).

  • Aprilia owners in Malaysia had a great day at the Sepang International Circuit yesterday.

  • Didi Resources, the new custodians of the brand organized a track day as promised.

  • A great mix of Aprilia models took to the track.

As promised by Didi Resources, the new custodian of Aprilia motorcycles in Malaysia, the inaugural (under new management) Aprilia Malaysia Track Day went off without a hitch yesterday at the Sepang International Circuit.

Didi Resources Organizes Inaugural Aprilia and Modclass Track Day

Besides rides and convoys, organizing a track day for Aprilia owners is the right thing to do as the activity demonstrates the manufacturer’s “Be a Racer” philosophy.

It was great to see owners showing up from all over Malaysia and even Singapore on all sorts of Aprilia models, because we are used to seeing the RSV4 superbike in the Malaysian Superbike Championship (MSBK), Malaysian Speed Foundation (MSF) and track days on weekends.

Instead, this track day organized by Didi Resources provided the opportunity to ride on track on any bike, more like a “Run what ya brung” track weekend.

 

Indeed, we saw the Shiver 750, Tuono V4, SL1000R, RSV Mille (the father of the RSV4), RS250 two-strokes, and an SR-Max 300 scooter ridden by Khairul Hafiz.

Of course, the riders attended a safety briefing after registration. Aprilia Malaysia had also prepared race suits and riding gear for rental to those who don’t own them.

It had rained on the track from early morning and the open track day riders came back to report on a slippery track after their first session. However, the Aprilians were lucky as their sessions started close to noon and went on through late afternoon. The sun had started to shine and dried the track by then.

It was visible that the participants had a great day although they were also exhausted after riding under the hot sun. Didi Resources also provided refreshments and lunch so that they had nothing to worry about except of having fun.

Lastly, while there weren’t many who took the track as expected despite the large number of Aprilians who showed up, we believe there will be many more in the next track days. We would also like to add that they event went without a hitch, and there was no mishap.

  • Aprilia owners are starting to reap the benefits of the brand being under a new caretaker.

  • The owners under the Urban Riders club organized a weekend ride to Melaka for some fun at the beach.

  • The group got together and pushed off from Aprilia Malaysia at The Gasket Alley.

As with other brands under the care of Didi Resources, Aprilia riders are now reaping the benefits with more rides and programs, as promised by the new distributor. As such, the bike club Urban Riders celebrated the organization’s 5th anniversary by riding to Melaka, mostly on Aprilias.

The activity still managed to attract about 30 participants despite being organized in the middle of a long, 3-day weekend (Saturday).

The riders grouped at the new Aprilia Malaysia at The Gasket Alley, for a light breakfast and some catching up.

Two models were heavily represented, the Shiver 750 and Tuono 1000 V4.

Idon Pang, the Aftersales Manager for the Piaggio brands at The Gasket Alley welcomed the riders and thanked them for taking part in the convoy. He also iterated that new Aprilia bike sales will hopefully begin in October 2018.

He also reminded the riders of the inaugural Aprilia Track Day on 9th September 2018.

With that, proceedings were handed to the club’s president, Tok Uban to present the ride briefing. There was no police escort so the participants were told to buddy up and watch out for one another.

The group then departed from The Gasket Alley to head to the Shell petrol station after the Sungai Besi Toll Plaza to hook up with another group, before pushing to Chalet D’ Sayang at Pengkalan Balak, Melaka. They will put up for a night there before heading back to Kuala Lumpur tomorrow (Sunday).
