A Mat Rempit is a Malaysian term for an individual (usually a youngster) who participates in hooliganism and illegal activities such as street racing, stunt biking, petty crime, and public disturbance using a motorcycle.[1] These individuals usually ride underbone motorcycles common in southeast Asia, locally known colloquially as Kapcai or scooters.
Mat Rempits are often seen on Malaysian streets, where they would gather in groups and race against one another, or otherwise engage in dangerous activities such as night races and stunts (e.g. wheelies, Superman (lying flat on the seat), wikang and scorpion (standing on the seat with one leg during a wheelie). There have been cases where they openly break the law and rebel against authorities, running through roadblocks, riding against the traffic, or hitting police officers with their motorbikes. Mat Rempits often race or perform stunts without proper safety gear while using improperly-equipped or illegally modified bikes. This would often lead to accidents, causing major injuries or death, both to themselves and innocent bystandanders.
