The wait is over! KOVE Moto — one of the most talked-about rising motorcycle brands in the global scene — has officially made its debut in Malaysia with the KOVE Brand & New Model Launch 2025 at KEV Advenduro, Rawang.
In an event that thrilled local riders and media alike, two new models were unveiled: the KOVE 800X GT, an adventure-ready machine built for long-haul touring and rugged exploration, and the KOVE 450R, a razor-sharp naked streetfighter that screams performance. These new models join the earlier introduced KOVE 450 Rally, completing an impressive lineup for Malaysian riders seeking something truly different.
A New Force in Malaysia’s Motorcycle Market
The official entry of KOVE into Malaysia is spearheaded by MDua Motor Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of AFY Mobility Industries (AMI), appointed as KOVE’s sole and exclusive distributor. While current models arrive as CBU units, the partnership signals big plans ahead — including local assembly (CKD), after-sales support, readily available spare parts, and comprehensive warranty coverage — all aligned with KOVE’s global quality standards.
Founded in 2017 by a passionate racer in China, KOVE Moto has earned global recognition for building high-performance motorcycles with serious engineering pedigree. Guided by its philosophy — “Focus on Performance” — KOVE has rapidly gained respect in international motorsports, especially after its Dakar Rally successes, proving that these machines are not just designed for the showroom, but born for the track and trails.
KOVE 800X GT – Built to Go the Distance
The new KOVE 800X GT takes center stage as an adventure-touring powerhouse. Powered by a 799cc parallel-twin engine delivering 97 hp and 80 Nm, it blends thrilling performance with practicality for long rides. Weighing just 195 kg, it offers a remarkable power-to-weight ratio ideal for serious riders.
Key highlights include four ride modes (Sport, Comfort, Rain, Off-Road), KYB suspension, quick shifter, electronic throttle, heated grips and seat, and a massive 22L fuel tank — making it a true globe-trotter. It’s not just about performance; it’s about comfort, stability, and confidence, no matter the terrain.
💰 Price: RM48,888 (excluding registration, road tax, and insurance)
🎁 Bonus: The first 20 customers will receive an exclusive pannier box set with their purchase.
KOVE 450R – Malaysia is the first country outside China to launch this model
If pure adrenaline is your thing, meet the KOVE 450R — a four-cylinder 443cc streetfighter that marks the return of compact inline-four performance in the middleweight class. Producing 65.3 hp and 40 Nm, this featherweight beast (just 164 kg) rockets up to 205 km/h, making it one of the most exciting bikes in its segment.
With launch control, slipper clutch, dual ABS brakes, and two riding modes (Sport & Comfort), the 450R is designed for riders who want a machine that feels at home both in city traffic and weekend canyon runs.
💰 Price: RM33,888 (excluding registration, road tax, and insurance)
KOVE 450 Rally – Dakar-Proven, Adventure-Ready
Already a cult favorite among off-road enthusiasts, the KOVE 450 Rally embodies the brand’s competition DNA. Featuring a 449cc DOHC single-cylinder engine with 51.7 hp, 30L fuel capacity, and long-travel suspension, it’s a genuine Dakar-bred machine for riders who crave real adventure beyond the pavement.
💰 Price: RM39,900 (excluding registration, road tax, and insurance)
