The WMOTO GRIFFIN 205, which debuted at the Malaysia Bike Show 2026, has now officially gone on sale for RM8,888. The new large-wheel scooter was unveiled to coincide with the opening of Mforce Smartshop in Parit, Perak.
So, does it have under-seat storage? When I hear '205cc scooter,' the first things I wonder about are cargo space and seat height. A price of RM8,888 in Malaysia is a sweet spot that's affordable for both commuting and weekends. Southeast Asia is scooter paradise, after all. Personally, I'd love to cruise around casually on this one.

First time hearing of the WMOTO brand, what country is that manufacturer from?
Not sure of the details, but it's likely a Chinese-affiliated scooter brand, seems like they're rolling it out for Malaysia.
Timing the announcement with a new dealer opening is probably a strategic move that doubles as expanding the regional sales network.
Going from Malaysia Bike Show announcement straight to official launch is fast, but I wonder if they got enough time for quality testing.
If an emerging brand like WMOTO comes in at this price, it seems well positioned to appeal to the local practical-scooter demand.
Positioned as a large-wheel scooter, this looks like it'll go head-to-head with Honda and Yamaha's same-class models in Southeast Asia.
RM8,888 pricing — lining up the 8s for good luck is a very Asian way to price a product.
