The 2025 Honda Riders’ Convention roared to life in the Visayas, kicking off Honda Philippines, Inc.’s (HPI) nationwide celebration with unmatched energy. As the country’s No. 1 motorcycle brand, Honda brought together thousands of riders, clubs, and enthusiasts for a weekend of thrilling rides, tech reveals, and pure community spirit.
“The convention is more than just an annual event,” said Takeshi Kobayashi, President of HPI. “It’s a celebration of our growing community—especially here in the Visayas—who continue to trust Honda as their riding partner.”
Here are 7 reasons why this year’s Visayas leg was a certified hit:
1. Test Rides That Got Hearts Racing
Attendees got to test ride Honda’s newest Electric Vehicles (EVs) and Big Bikes, while more seasoned riders showed off their skills in the Gymkhana Challenge using the Winner X. Whether you were a newbie or a pro, there was a ride for everyone.
2. Tech You Can Touch
The Honda Technology Center wowed guests with hands-on demos of next-gen innovations, including RoadSync on the ADV350 and PCX160, the new e-Clutch, and the advanced Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT) on the X-ADV750. It wasn’t just a display—it was a peek into the future of connected, effortless riding.
3. Rider Camaraderie on Full Display
Riders from across provinces made the journey to Cebu, embodying the true Honda spirit. Active clubs were recognized for their dedication, and the warm welcomes turned strangers into instant riding buddies.
4. Custom Bikes That Stole the Show
The Motorshow became a crowd favorite as custom and big bikes took center stage. Each one was a statement piece, showcasing personal style and the deep passion riders have for their machines.
5. Rider-Only Deals You Couldn’t Miss
The Trade Area buzzed with exclusive offers on gear, accessories, and essentials. From helmets to riding boots, the shopping scene was packed from start to finish.
6. Games, Giveaways, and Good Vibes
The Main Stage kept the energy up with live games, club shoutouts, and big prizes. From sunup to sundown, there was never a dull moment.
7. A Concert to Remember
Capping off the day was a high-voltage set by Sponge Cola, lighting up the night with fan-favorite hits. Riders sang their hearts out, turning the event into a full-on festival.
BONUS: A Bold New Ride – The All-New Honda NAVi
Honda surprised the crowd with the launch of the All-New Honda NAVi — a lightweight, customizable scooter built for city life. Its mini-bike-inspired styling, compact frame, and street-smart performance had local riders calling it “astig,” “sulit,” and “subok na kalidad.”
With upcoming legs in Mindanao and Luzon, the Honda Riders’ Convention is just getting started. This isn’t just about motorcycles—it’s about riding together, building connections, and celebrating the lifestyle that comes with every Honda.
Ride. Unite. Celebrate. That’s the Honda way.
