JAKARTA - Yamaha Gear Ultima is one of the motorcycle models that went viral because it was tested for endurance in various obstacles and terrains. This time the motorcycle is back in the spotlight in an activity titled Gear Ultima Jelajah Mountain which took place in the area of the foot of Mount Sinabung, North Sumatra.

During the two-day nature exploration, the motorcycle was 'tortured' to ride an extreme path to the Gunung Sinabung savannah area which is at an altitude of around 1,500 meters above sea level with a road character full of large rocks, slippery mud, steep slopes, and heavy rain showers along the way.

General Manager of Marketing & Promotion, PT Alfa Scorpii, Joni Lie, said this activity was specifically held to prove again that this scooter is a powerful, practical motorcycle, and can always accompany all forms of mobility for its riders thanks to a variety of advanced and practical premium features.

"Even the quality of the frame is proven to be strong to hit the Sabana area of the foot of Mount Sinabung, which is already famous for having very extreme paths, so that with this success it can further strengthen the title of Gear Ultima as a Strong and Steady Motor that is ready to accompany the active young family of Indonesia," he said. , in an official statement received, Friday, May 29.

The journey started from the Yamaha Berastagi Dealer to the foot of Mount Sinabung, but when they arrived at the lower area of the mountain, the participants were immediately faced with extreme terrain in the form of a muddy road mixed with large rocks due to the rain.

The condition of the road is muddy and not solid, making the motorcycle wheels have to continue to struggle to find the best traction when crossing the rocky areas and long slopes typical of Mount Sinabung. Even though it is constantly bombarded by slippery and rocky paths, the performance of the Blue Core Hybrid 125cc engine on the motorcycle is still able to provide responsive power when it has to conquer steep slopes with uneven road contours.

The challenge of the journey is even more felt when entering the long uphill area towards the savannah area, because the route is dominated by large irregular rocks so that the riders have to be extra focused when driving, especially the rainy conditions make the rock surface much more slippery.

After successfully passing through the heavy lane, all the participants' struggles were immediately paid off with the magnificent panorama of the foot of Mount Sinabung that spoiled the eyes. The expanse of green savannah with the typical cold mountain air is the perfect atmosphere to enjoy the night together.

Through the above activities, Yamaha once again shows that the Yamaha Gear Ultima is a multi-purpose scooter that is not only comfortable to use for daily needs, but also tough to accompany various exploration and adventure activities for families.
