On 25 July 2025, in conjunction with the launch of the new KTM 125 and 390, Motul and KTM Singapore signed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
What does this mean in real terms, beyond the handshakes and the photographs?
In short, Motul Asia Pacific becomes the official lubricant partner of KTM Singapore. With Motul’s full range of high-performance lubricants now flowing through KTM Singapore’s ecosystem, customers can expect stronger engine protection, cooler operating temperatures, and that elusive quality we all chase: consistency.
“This partnership with KTM Singapore is an exciting opportunity for us to bring Motul’s world-class expertise in lubrication and engine protection to a wider community of riders here. Together with KTM, we look forward to delivering an enhanced riding experience that reflects our shared commitment to performance, reliability, and passion.”
Jay Ong, Country Manager, Motul Singapore
If you’ve followed top-tier competition, you’ll know Motul’s ongoing role as the official lubricant partner of the MotoGP Red Bull KTM Racing Team and its 2025 KTM RC16s, proof that what’s being poured into your service bay shares DNA with the fluids that survive Sunday afternoons at 300 km/h.
The intent on both sides is as clear as a freshly bled brake line: align regionally, execute locally, and make the rider’s life better.
“We’re proud to partner with Motul, a name that stands for engineering excellence and proven performance. Our riders demand the best from their motorcycles, and that extends to the fluids that power them. This collaboration reinforces our commitment to giving riders in Singapore access to race-tested lubricant solutions and expert care. It’s about building long-term value and supporting every rider’s journey, whether on the road or the track.”
Wang Ying Hao, General Manager, KTM Singapore
So what changes for you, the rider, beyond a smarter sticker on the swingarm? Expect three practical pillars to take shape:
First, technical workshops for KTM riders and service teams. In a region where humidity and stop-start traffic can be as punishing as a sprint race, tailoring lubrication to local realities is more science than slogan.
Second, joint marketing and outreach that does more than shout. If the messaging is done right, it should shorten the distance between the paddock and the carpark, making it easier to understand and trust what goes into your engine.
Third, rider engagement activities like track days and product showcases. Because the final arbiter is always the throttle: does the bike feel crisper, cooler, more cohesive at pace? The best partnerships invite you to find out for yourself.
“Motul has long been a trusted technical partner for KTM globally, and this strategic collaboration in Singapore strengthens our synergy. We are pleased to endorse this partnership which supports our broader objective of delivering new benefits to our customers through this shared focus on performance and reliability and trusted technical solutions to KTM riders.”
Michael Ang, Director, KTM Singapore & Yew Heng Group
All of this dovetails neatly with KTM Singapore’s raison d’être as the exclusive distributor here: comprehensive sales, attentive servicing, and a calendar of engagement that reflects the brand’s off-road grit and road-race agility. The Austrian marque has built a reputation on bikes that feel alive, and the right lubricant turns that liveliness from a party trick into a personality trait.
With Motul and KTM Singapore pulling in the same direction, the promise is simple: race-ready dependability you can feel from the first start to the last corner of the day.
