One of the most debatable issues of the motorcycle is the top speed, specifically for the Malaysian model. Speedometer error on Malaysian models actually indicate that the motorcycle is going much faster than the actual speed. Testing using GPS confirmed that the speedometer shows approximately 30% higher than the actual speed, which is unusually very high.

Below is a simple table to indicate the actual speed of Malaysian's 135LC from the speedometer :

135LC speedometer (km/h)	90	100	110	120	130	140	150	160	170	180
Actual speed (km/h)	69.4	77.0	84.8	92.4	100.2	107.8	115.6	123.2	131.0	138.6

Our 4-stroke moped segment market share had further increased to 27% fuelled by the strong demand of the 135LC model,” said Mr CH Ng, Managing Director of Hong Leong Yamaha.

The introduction of the 135LC Extreme Spirit will give Hong Leong Yamaha the competitive edge to further expand sales in the 4-stroke moped segment. “Fulfilling customers requests is the key for any product success and the introduction of the 135LC Extreme Spirit fits this objective. It provides customers a sense of fun and enjoyment in riding,” said CH Ng. The 135LC Extreme Spirit comes with many new features like floating type 267mm diameter
larger front disc brake with 2 pot caliper for better braking response. A front fork stabilizer
promises stability whilst a linkage type sporty gear change gives the rider a sporty riding feel.

sweeping corners. The clutch lever incorporates a safety feature with a safety switch to
prevent accidental starts while the gear is engaged. The 135LC Extreme Spirit is stylishly attractive with bold new colors and graphics.
