Activity: MotoGP, Sepang, Malaysia
Date: 21 - 23 October 2022
Venue: Sepang International Circuit Malaysia
The Malaysian motorcycle Grand Prix is a round of the FIM Grand Prix motorcycle racing World Championship. The first Malaysian Grand Prix was held at the Shah Alam circuit in 1991 and saw a debut win in the premier class for John Kocinski riding a Yamaha. Shah Alam hosted the event for seven years before the Malaysian GP went to Johor for a single year in 1998.
In 1999 the brilliant Sepang International Circuit near Kuala Lumpur, designed by respected racetrack architect Hermann Tilke, hosted its first Grand Prix, with the 500cc race won by Kenny Roberts, Jr on a Suzuki. Since then Sepang has been a consistent fixture on the calendar and the circuit has also been extensively used for MotoGP™ preseason testing over the years.

Saying goodbye to the faithful ....
Ducati Multistrada Enduro
23 November 2021
We are saying goodbye to the Ducati 2016 Multistrada 1200 Enduro. We are sad to let the Enduro go as it has served us very well for the past (almost) 5 years taking us to the many different countries in the region, up the mountains, down the valleys, to the beaches and the jungles passing through various historical cities. May you benefit your next owner as you did me. Pushing in to the Ducati Singapore agent, Wearnes Automotive, for the handing over to the next owner
What is coming next?
Stay tuned and do monitor this webpage for our development. Something is brewing up real soon. In the meantime we are slowly purchasing accessories to build up our next bike. A few of the packages have arrived through cargo delivery from overseas retailers. We shall be putting up the installations and the accessoriezed bike up soon to update everyone.
Red Baron will ride again (as soon as the COVID travel restriction eases).
