BIKE NIGHT ASIA BIKE OF THE WEEK: Yamaha Sniper 150 Big Bike Concept
This week's Bike Night Asia Bike of the Week: Jason's Yamaha Sniper 150 Big Bike Concept
It wasn't that long ago when we have gazed our eyes upon an awesome Sniper 150 and this time another Sniper 150 have landed our spotlight. Chris Sacayan's Sniper is on another league and Jason Berces' ride proved that there are more monsters lurked the sea of bikes.
At a glance, this Sniper 150 overflows with swagger, the details that the mechanics have looked into shows how much knowledge and effort this bike consumed before it turned into this beast.
Your eyes will feast on the things that they have added to this beauty beginning with the paint job. The bike was treated with a black and purple combination with decals inspired by the King of Wakanda himself, Black Panther. The mags were given a purple paint job as well to compliment the overall motif.
The body of the bike have undergone several parts replacements, modifications and upgrades. From fairings down to the mags, Frankenstein monster have beefed up for your eyes to see.
The swing arm is the Pro Arm from a Ducati Evo 848 giving the bike a sleek and sexy hind side look. These swing arms are holding ginormous mags from Ducati Diavel for both front and rear mags. To pull this off, the bike was given custom engine sprockets to drive the monster tire.
Shock are also a sight to be marvel at, Ohlins monoshock receives the bumps on the rear and Nissin's shocks from Suzuki's GSXR1000 does the job up front coupled with an awesome dual rotor disc set-up to improve breaking. Triggering these breaks are RCB's awesome levers.
To show off some muscle, the gearing is treated with an exposed dry clutch to provide for some direct transmission and less power loss as it is able to handle more power than its equivalent in size wet clutch. RCB's Single Shifter was also added for an ease on gearing.
This work of art is possible in the hands of these Picassos and the owner: Jason Berces, Rollee Malota, Mark Anthony Durante, Karl Dollano and Jeffery Domagsang or known as The Managers.
Thank you Jason Berces for sharing your awesome ride!
