Omoway Integrates Self-Balancing Technology into OMO-X Electric Motorcycle
Singapore, Kompas.com – Omoway’s OMO-X electric motorcycle arrives with self-balancing technology that enables the vehicle to remain balanced without the rider needing to put their feet down when stopping.
This feature is considered advanced for a motorcycle, particularly in markets such as Indonesia. Additionally, Omoway has become the first company to produce the world’s first self-balancing motorcycle. According to reports, the motorcycle will be available for order in the Indonesian market next month.
General Manager for the Indonesian Market Yulong Chen stated that the development of this technology stemmed from genuine user needs for daily motorcycle riding.
“The feature came after user requests. We continuously communicate with thousands of users, local people, asking them what they want,” Yulong said in Singapore on Thursday (12 March 2026).
He added that the technology developed by the company must be realistic and truly provide tangible benefits to riders.
One of the most common complaints is fatigue when riding in heavy traffic conditions. Yulong explained that riders often have to stop and start repeatedly, which means they must continuously put their feet down.
Additionally, long-distance travel was also a consideration in developing this technology.
“I often travel outside the city, nearly 150 kilometres, have to keep holding the throttle. Then I thought, could there be a motorcycle that self-balances,” he said.
According to Yulong, the feature is also beneficial in unexpected situations, such as when the motorcycle has to stop in the middle of floodwaters.
“If it can self-balance, there’s no need to worry. That’s important, isn’t it? Especially in Indonesia where there are often floods. If it suddenly stops in the middle, getting down is uncomfortable,” he said.
This technology is part of the OMO-ROBOT Architecture platform developed by Omoway.
This architecture combines vehicle computing systems, sensors, and motion control to create two-wheeled vehicles that are more stable and intelligent.
Through the OMO-ROBOT architecture, the motorcycle not only has a “brain” to process data, but also precision control systems that enable functions such as self-balancing, automatic control, and various intelligent mobility features in the future.
