Modified Yamaha 135LC Mono NSR 150 SP wing Arm by Syark


My friend Syark have these pictures shown on his FB. It features his bike modified with mono Honda NSR150 SP swing arm which is built based on a famous 2-stroke bike rode by Micheal Doohan by NSR Racing Technology in the World of Grand Prix.

This mono swing arm is commonly known as pro-Arm suspension which made Honda bike famous at that time. Honda NSR150 SP is considered entry-level superbike 150cc and 2-stroke type engine.

The mixture of Honda technology with Yamaha’s King of Moped makes Syark’s bike really stands out and I guess, the handling must be good as well.

More pictures after the jump. You can also see Syark’s friend’s 135LC are also equipped with Honda’s pro-Arm suspension! (more…)

We have seen the Honda’s PGM-FI version that has been transported to Honda Wave 125i, where it was thought impossible before. So, dual-clutch system might be coming soon to Honda’s moped lines.
