Associated Motorways (Private) Limited (AMW), the sole distributor for Yamaha in Sri Lanka hosted an event on June 14 at Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo to mark the return of Yamaha motorcycles and scooters to the local market.
This relaunch followed the Government’s decision to lift the import ban, effective from February 1, ending a five-year pause in Yamaha’s presence on Sri Lankan roads.
At the event, Yamaha’s latest lineup of motorcycles and scooters was unveiled through a fashion-themed celebration — a bold expression of the brand’s commitment to performance, style, and innovation. It signalled Yamaha’s return with confidence and flair.
Group Managing Director, AMW, Andre Bonthuys said, “Yamaha has always stood for innovation, excitement and an unmatched riding experience. Our comeback is not just about new models, it’s about redefining the journey for Sri Lankan riders.
With this fresh lineup and a launch event unlike any seen before, we are setting a new benchmark in the local two-wheeler space.” The new model range, curated to suit a wide variety of Sri Lankan riders, included motorcycles and scooters with class-leading specifications and fuel efficiency. Among the highlights was the Yamaha RayZR 125. These models were introduced in response to customer feedback and market demand.
