  Daelim Motor’s Research & Development Center aims to satisfy our customer’s ever changing needs by becoming one of the world’s top motorcycle research centers.
Since our establishment in 1978, Daelim Motor Company has developed popular, functional, and dependable models through technical tie-ups with Japan’s motorcycle manufacturers. One of the reasons Daelim was able to take over the domestic motorcycle market was because of our superior in-house technology. As we continue to branch out into the international markets, we are becoming recognized as a producer of solid, tried-and-true motorcycles. We currently export about half of our total production, which adds considerably to Korea’s foreign currency acquisition.

In 1986, Daelim had a medium-long-term plan to develop the technology necessary to become totally self-reliant. To achieve this objective, we established a new Research & Development Center. In 1994, these facilities were expanded through the construction of 3 new buildings and were outfitted with the most modern engineering equipment. These facilities play a vital role in propelling Daelim into the global marketplace.

One example of our research efforts was the independent development of a 100cc motorcycle in 1992. After 3 years of work, the Altino-powered motorcycle rolled off the assembly line and was immediately recognized as technically superior to other domestic brands. We are currently using the same whole-hearted dedication to detail in the development of a full range of models.

In 1997, Daelim Motor developed and began marketing the high performance 125cc scooter “Trans Up(NS125)”. This model is equipped with a 4-stroke, 4-valve engine with the best power and acceleration in its class. The “Trans Up” continues to reliably and faithfully serve domestic and international riders.

The 100cc scooter “Delfino” was introduced in 1998. This stylish model gave customers the highest performance parameters of any scooter in its class. Daelim also came out with the “Daystar” in 1998. This 125cc American Custom model features classic styling and solid performance.

In 2001, we newly developed the 125cc scooter “ History(Forte)” and the 50cc scooter “ Major(S-five)” having the more qualified and modern specifications to meet closely our domestic and overseas customers’ needs.

And, in 2002, the other type of S-five “ Major ATS” which has the dynamic design and on-off road functions is newly developed. In the category of “Business type “ motorcycle, CITI ACE 110 by our own technology is created.

In 2003, we developed fashion scooter 50cc "CORDI" which is very convenient for women and even Young peoples to ride easily and comfortably.

In 2004, we developed and introduced the new scooters "SQ125 and SQ250" for the purpose of satisfying with customer' new need and fashion. Especially, SQ250 is the high perormance and capacity fashion scooter in Korean domestic market.

Currently, in 2005, we introduced a new small scooter 50cc "A.FOUR" which is new paradigm and Completely Balanced in quality and style.

The international motorcycle scene has recently undergone some significant changes. The motorcycle import diversification system has been cancelled, the global warming phenomenon has led to stricter regulations concerning emissions, and customers are demanding ever-safer vehicles with improved reliability. Daelim views these changes as challenges that need to be met. We are prepared to commit our total resources for a successful outcome.

During the decreased domestic demand of the IMF situation, Daelim Motor pushed ahead with the development of export-oriented products. To achieve this lofty goal, we improved our in-house technology and product quality. Motorcycle warranty periods were extended. Cost cutting measures were implemented without any decrease in product quality.

With such objectives in mind, Daelim Motor expanded CAE/CAT to computerize simulation systems and analytical activities, and is in the process of building an integrated technical information management system. Daelim Motor has intensified its research atmosphere by revitalizing the research specialist system. All R&D personnel have joined forces to improve the manpower resources of their department. Daelim management realizes that R&D is one of the strategic resources of a corporation and is necessary for Daelim’s advancement to an acknowledged leader in the world market.
