GPX Legend 150 (from RM 8,XXX available from April 2019)

The Legend 150 is a retro model for those who like simplicity and customization. Indeed, the Legend is bare-bones in its stock form.

This model is already doing very well in Thailand, its country of origin. The customizers in that country have shown off a number of awe-inspiring customs. The long bench-seat and fuel lends that classic 1950’s look.

As such, it should bode well for motorcycle fans in Malaysia who wish to own a motorcycle which reflects their own personalities, instead of owning something which you could find anywhere.

The Legend 150 is powered a 150cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. From our observation, the powerplant looks solidly-built with fine finishing.

The chassis handled by a pair of telescopic forks and a pair of shocks at the rear. The frame is a welded spaceframe which utilizes the engine as a stressed member.

GPX Gentleman 200 (from RM 10,980)

The Gentleman is GPX’s café racer in the lineup.

The model has a number of interesting features:

• LED running lights and taillight.

• LCD instrument display (meter).

• A shapely fuel tank with Monza-style fuel cap.

• Stitched seats, rear seat cowl.

• A large round airbox which kind of looks like an intake for a turbocharger.

• Sculpted subframe and tailsection.
• Upside-down forks.

• Monoshock rear suspension.

The Gentleman is powered by a 200cc, air-cooled, single-cylinder engine. The quality of the components can readily be seen.

This model is also very popular in Thailand and hundreds of owners will turn up for convoys.
