                    [Summary] => Bullish on the prospects of the Philippine motorcycle market, Honda Philippines Inc. will spend over P2 billion for the relocation and expansion of its assembly plant in the country to further solidify its dominant position in the industry.


Honda is choosing between Calamba and Sta. Rosa, Laguna as its new relocation site. To rise on a 50-hectare property, the new factory is expected to increase the firm’s production of motorbikes to half a million units a year from the current  156,000 units.

The humble mopeds, or underbone motorcycles, are being highlighted here as the stars of the weeklong 2002 All Motorcycle Show at the SM City Atrium that started Saturday, Nov. 30.


More than 40 new moped models – from the no-frills, just-for-fun types to the modified, super-sport versions — were displayed for the public to see, touch and experience.

The injuries and deaths, however, could have been prevented if bike riders and their passengers practiced safe riding techniques. Accidents involving motorcycles could be entirely avoided and reduced to zero.

The Federation of Asian Motorcycle Industries (FAMI) aired its concern over the proliferation of copycat motorbikes in the region, exposing the public to danger.


FAMI President Dato Syed Mohamad Aidid of Malaysia said the federation’s members are now seriously looking at the dangers being posed by copycat motorbikes particularly those that are being sold to first-time buyers.

These and more motivated Honda Philippines to go to the extreme in designing its newest motorcycle – the XRM 100, a bike it launched at the Civic Trade and Industry Center here over the weekend.


Three years in the making, the XRM is a cross between a family cub type and an on/off-road bike, making it suitable for riding on well-paved streets as well as on rocky terrains.
