And now for something completely different! And just for good measure, a tour of the Mofaz factory in Kuala Lumpur, with a gaggle of photos of more two-wheelers that defy convention. When I first saw photos of the MadAss in a magazine a few years back, I was stunned. But after more research, I discovered that it was a real production bike and it was already for sale in Europe! Never would I imagine that such an outrageous looking machine will arrive on Malaysian shores. I was expecting to find a mini bike, styled for small teenagers or vertically challenged people, closer to the famous Honda Monkey or Kawasaki KSR with small wheels and hidden-between-traffic-seat height. Upon entering the Mofaz Factory, I was greeted by Mr. Ahmad Rizal, the Assistant Sales Manager. They wheeled out the bike and BOOM! I was completely caught by surprise at my first live view!

While it's interesting that every Sachs motorcycle and scooter is "innovative by definition", it's also interesting that in the history of Sachs Bikes this may be the most unique design ever released by the historic German company. The Sachs MadAss is an urban light-weight motorcycle designed to rock the perception of what a motorcycle should look like and ride like. The MadAss has an exclusive Sachs engineered frame design that is the whole key to how the bike handles so well. The banana swing arm, the rear mono shock, and main frame all run parallel to each other.
When's the last time you lusted over a scooter? But I'll be perfectly honest: when I discovered the made-in-China connection, a certain past experience dampened my enthusiasm— despite the fact that Sachs has been in business over years. Regardless, I decided to give the bike a chance by arranging a test ride through my local distributor, Big Ass Motors in Northridge.
