    The two-day program kicked off with a test ride of the new Yamaha Sniper 155 and the Aerox 155 sporty scooter at Block 16 parking lot in the SM Mall of Asia complex.

    YMPH also brought in Nik Makino, who sang the original soundtrack of Yamaha Racing Philippines dubbed "Creating Champions."

    The Yamaha FastFest also had a Moto Trainer (a MotoGP Simulator) booth and two Lean Angle Experience installations where attendees had the chance to take pictures atop the inclined motorcycles mimicking racetrack cornering.

    Yamaha also held a speed contest with the Dyno Shootout. It measured who had the fastest Yamaha Sniper and Mio Aerox based on top horsepower and torque. Winners received an all-expense paid trip to witness the MotoGP Pertamina Grand Prix of Indonesia on September 27-29.

    “Yamaha continues to push the limits of their machines to deliver the best possible motorcycle. Whether its for riding above the rest every day or creating champions on the racetrack Yamaha will, without question, unlock your speed,” Yamaha wrote in a press release.
