UMA Racing, the Malaysian motorcycle performance parts and accessories brand under the MKA Group, showcased a range of new products during the PETRONAS Grand Prix of Malaysia 2026, held from 30 October to 1 November at the PETRONAS Sepang International Circuit.

The launch featured the return of the popular UMA Racing Superhead, an all-new range of Ceramic Cylinder Blocks, 16 additional PACERS tyre sizes, and an exclusive preview of the upcoming Kaminari Exhaust. The new products were displayed at Booth D01, attracting motorcycle enthusiasts throughout the MotoGP weekend.

Adding to the excitement, UMA Racing welcomed several of its brand ambassadors to the event, including 2026 Asia Road Racing Championship (ARRC) ASB1000 champion Hafizh Syahrin Abdullah, ARRC SuperSports 600 (SS600) rider Kasma Daniel Kasmayudin, and ARRC Underbone 150 (UB150) rider Nazirul Izzat, better known as Ayoi.

Their appearance highlighted UMA Racing’s continued support for Malaysian motorsport while strengthening the brand’s relationship with the local riding community.

Leading the product launch was the return of the UMA Racing Superhead, available in 23/20 and 25/23 specifications for selected Yamaha motorcycles, including the Y16ZR, NVX, NMAX and R15M. Designed to enhance engine performance, the latest Superhead features UMA Racing’s signature Apple-shaped combustion chamber, developed to improve combustion efficiency.

It also comes with precision-machined intake and exhaust ports for improved airflow, durable super-alloy valves, and a roller-type rocker arm that promotes smoother engine operation. The updated design aims to deliver better engine response while maintaining long-term reliability for performance-focused riders.

UMA Racing also introduced its latest Ceramic Cylinder Blocks, offered in 63 mm, 65 mm and 68 mm sizes. Developed for riders looking to upgrade engine performance, the cylinder blocks feature ceramic-coated sleeves, redesigned cooling passages and forged dome pistons.

Together, these components help improve heat management, reduce internal friction and deliver more consistent performance under demanding riding conditions. Like the Superhead, the new Ceramic Cylinder Blocks are compatible with selected Yamaha models, including the Y16ZR, NVX, NMAX and R15M.

The company has also expanded its PACERS tyre lineup by introducing 16 new tyre sizes, giving riders more choices across a wider range of motorcycles. The new additions cover 12-inch, 13-inch, 14-inch, 15-inch and 17-inch wheel sizes, allowing the tyres to fit more motorcycle models than before.

PACERS tyres feature a 3D Diamond-Edge tread pattern, specially designed water-channeling grooves and a high-grip rubber compound. These features are intended to improve road grip, handling and rider confidence in both wet and dry weather conditions.

Another highlight at the UMA Racing booth was the first public preview of the Kaminari Exhaust, which is expected to join the company’s product lineup in 2027. The upcoming exhaust system features three exhaust profiles, a removable DB Killer, a carbon-fibre heat guard, and UMA Racing’s proprietary TRU Pressure System.

The combination is designed to deliver improved performance while offering riders a distinctive exhaust appearance and sound. Although final specifications have yet to be announced, the preview provided visitors with an early look at one of UMA Racing’s most anticipated future products.

Products Expected to Arrive From Late 2026

According to Jonathan Marcus, Brand Manager of UMA Racing, the latest product range reflects the company’s ongoing efforts to provide riders with more performance upgrade options.

“Bringing back the Superhead and introducing new additions to our Ceramic Cylinder Block and PACERS tyre ranges reflects our commitment to providing riders with more performance upgrade options. We continue to focus on developing products that enhance engine performance, reliability and riding confidence while meeting the evolving needs of motorcycle enthusiasts.”

The UMA Racing Superhead, Ceramic Cylinder Blocks, and the 16 new PACERS tyre sizes are expected to be available in the fourth quarter of 2026, while the Kaminari Exhaust is scheduled to launch during the first quarter of 2027.
