Building on 2025's international growth
The 2025 season marked a milestone for MSBK, with participation expanding to include more countries, riders, and teams than in previous years. Malaysia's premier superbike series has been steadily growing its international grid and strengthening its development focus, and the 2026 season is positioned to continue that trajectory.
What MSBK is trying to achieve
The partnership behind MSBK is anchored on a shared ambition: to progressively elevate the standards of motorcycle racing in Malaysia, while offering a genuinely competitive platform for both professional riders chasing international opportunities and passionate privateers racing for the love of the sport. The 2026 season represents another step in that ongoing development, continuing to position Malaysia as a serious hub for superbike racing in the Southeast Asian region.
