The Jakarta International Expo in Kemayoran, Central Jakarta, will host a big-bike exhibition on Feb. 22-26, 2017.

Said to be the first ever big-bike show in the country, Big Revv ID will feature communities and lifestyle related to motorcycles with engine capacities of more than 400cc, such as custom and classic shows, riding gear, apparel, parts, accessories and gadgets.

"The industry dynamics of big bikes in Indonesia are unique and interesting. In 2016, up to 21 brands were marketed in Indonesia," said the event's project manager Youlanda Motoh in a press release on Monday. "Our focus is to exhibit and sell motorcycles with engine capacities of more than 400cc from around the world, including the US, Europe and Asia."
