Naza Bikes

Naza Bikes has just shipped out 500 units of its 125cc Naza Flash to the Iranian market, as well as 100 units of the 125cc Flash and 150cc GTR 150 to Brunei. Two containers full of CKD parts for the bikes were flagged off by the Deputy MInister of MITI Dato Mukhriz Mahathir end last month.

“This is a significant milestone for Naza Bikes as we move to retail our products beyond Malaysia. We continue to seek parties that are interested in retailing our products in other countries in line with the long-term direction of the company,” said Naza Group CEO SM Faisal Tan Sri SM Nasimuddin.

The Naza Flash is said to be quite similiar to the Honda Wave. Its 4-stroke 124.8cc engine produces 7.5 kilowatts at 7,500rpm and 10.3Nm of torque at 5,000rpm, using a common centrifugal clutch gearbox with 4 ratios. It has a fuel tank size of 3.7 liters.

Naza Bikes

The first two bikes produced by Naza at its 24,000 square feet Shah Alam plant are the Naza Symphony and Naza Gemilang. The company has since launched 12 different models since 2003 in collaboration with Korean, Taiwanese and Chinese partners and also offers big bikes between the 250cc and 650cc range.

The company currently brings in about 25% to 30% of its total revenue from export markets, which is good for the Malaysian economy, and hopes to increase this to 50% within the next 5 years. The company wants to have its own engine by 2014.

    because modenas did not bother sending me details of their products or launch, and naza did. i am not a biker so i am not aware of where to get this kind of news, the companies have to send me. so if you know anyone in modenas please let them know my email – paul at paultan dot org

    News on it won’t be difficult to find. Besides, there aren’t many bike companies in Malaysia. Saying is easier than done, but u’ve got to be a bit more proactive, sensitive n balanced in reporting what is around us as much as abroad..

    Banned ALL 2-strokes motorbikes… solved 75% of rempit problems.

    Not to mention the reduced smoked from all those inefficient 2T oils.
