Big ride on a small bike: Riding 3,300km from Subang to Bangkok on a Yamaha cub

The ride beginning before sunrise, the road ahead long and arduous, as the motorcycle hums into the awakening day.

On the edge of Subang Jaya, beneath the morning mist and the low hum of early traffic, a small machine rolled out with a bold ambition – to reach Bangkok and return on less than RM100 worth of fuel.

The Yamaha PG-1, a 115cc adventure cub, wasn’t built for grandeur. It was built for grit.
