Shell BLU CRU Yamaha Enduro Challenge 2025 Ready to Start in Batu City

Shell BLU CRU Yamaha Enduro Challenge 2025, part of Yamaha’s One Make Race (OMR) series, is set to begin on May 24–25 at the Jalibar (Oro Oro Ombo) Circuit in Batu City, East Java.

This marks a historic moment, as it will be the first time the event is hosted in East Java since its launch four years ago. The decision to bring the event to Batu was influenced by the region’s high demand for WR155R motorcycles and its vibrant off-road biking culture.

Strategic Market Move by Yamaha Indonesia

According to Johannes B.M. Siahaan, Assistant General Manager CS Division of PT Yamaha Indonesia Motor Manufacturing, the event is a core part of the company’s 2025 motorsport strategy:

“This 2025 Yamaha One Make Race season includes the Shell BLU CRU Yamaha Enduro Challenge starting in Batu City, East Java.”

Ideal Terrain for Trail Riding and Exploration

Batu’s natural terrain — known for its diverse elevation and rugged paths — offers an ideal setting for off-road riding. The WR155R is not only favored for daily use but is also commonly used in trail bike rental services for tours around Mount Bromo and surrounding regions.
