PETALING JAYA: It’s official. Didi Resources is now the new distributor of the Aprilia motorcycle brand in Malaysia with effect from Aug 1.

Didi Resources chairman Rewi Hamid Bugo said the company was honoured to be picked to manage Aprilia, a premium Piaggio Group brand for the Malaysian market.

“This complements the Moto Guzzi range which we have established since August 2017 and completes our premium Italian motorcycle product range under Piaggio.

“Through this acquisition, Didi Resources is firmly committed to building the Aprilia brand through a dedicated aftersales support, strengthening of the Aprilia community and ensuring that engagement with the brand is continuous in the light of a competitive 2-wheel environment in Malaysia,” he said.

Rewi also promised current Aprilia owners of a smooth transition in customer care and service support.

The Gasket Alley in Section 13, Petaling Jaya will house a dedicated showroom for both Aprilia and Moto Guzzi brands with aftersales support and a service workshop.

It will also have a new service team equipped with specialized technical skills and expertise fully trained by Aprilia.

The previous local Aprilia distributor was Naza Premira which acquired the business in 2011.

Aside from the Italian motorcycle brands, Didi Resources also became the local distributor of Harley-Davidson early this year.
