A teaser image has been posted on the Demak Motor
Facebook page, saying that it will be launching 11 new models in Malaysia for
2017. Indicating that the launch will begin on May 21st, Demak has previously
launched 15 models in its range.
With this year shaping up to be an aggressive one
for Demak – represented by Sarawak company DNC Asiatic – it looks as if it will
be trying to corner the budget motorcycle market, notably kapchais and
scooters. There has been no real information forthcoming since we last visited
the Demak facility in Olak Lempit, Selangor, but from the Facebook post, one of
the new models will be a “fun bike”.
Aside from that, it appears as if Demak will also be introducing a three-wheeler into
the local market. Whether this will take the form of a small-wheeled roofed
scooter, or a full-sized machine like the Can-Am, remains anyones guess.
Also much-awaited by local Demak fans is the
motard-styled DTM 250, which represents cheap and cheerful two-wheeled fun for
many riders. The current 2017 Demak ranges
from MX- and motard-styled 250 cc singles, down to 150 cc and 110 cc scooters.
