Motorbike clubs – there is almost always a certain negative connotation whenever these two words come together.
Flashing images of wheelie stunts and zooming riders may come to mind but rest assured, these clubs admit only gentlemen (and in one particular case, ladies) who hold road ethics close to heart.
1. Super Bikers Club Malaysia (SBCM)
Claiming their coveted spot as one of Malaysia’s pioneer motorcycle clubs, this communal group of bikers and motorcycle enthusiasts have garnered a wide rapport ever since their inception back in 1992. Eligible for high-powered motorcycles of 500cc engine capacity and above, this club is not only big in machines but the heart as well – they’re well known as a regular organiser for the 3 Nation Charity Ride Event in order to raise money for various charity organizations.
2. Throttle Riot
With two of its founders being ladies, Throttle Riot have indeed done away with the conventional masculine image often associated in the biker’s scene. With a catchy and couldn’t-care-less motto of ‘riding kick-ass motorcycles and having fun’, their most recent success with the Moto &Gincu event gathered 70-odd female bikers for a convoy to commemorate International Women’s Day.

3. Rascals Motor Club
If you’re a fan of touring, picture-esque locations and laidback vibes, Rascals Motor Club is the way to go. Banding like-minded brothers and sisters together in growing the cafe racing culture in Malaysia, RMC flaunts a gorgeous portfolio of modified cafe bikes and sleek leather jackets, each with their very own embroidered Rascals badge of honour.

4. Ikatan Silaturrahim Brotherhood
You may have heard of this band of brothers in the past – if their name rings a distant bell, that’s because they’ve enjoyed a fair share of limelight thanks to their DIY attitude in activism.
Meet Ikatan Silaturrahim Brotherhood – our local unsung heroes inpatching up potholes. Active in 9 states and 27 districts nationwide, it all started in 2007 when founder, Azlan Sani Zawawi lost a fellow biker friend in an accident due to a pothole.
