The sport rim here is branded Daiichi Alloy made from Thailand. It is very nice and eye-catching.
The exhaust pipe here is TENCUT Racing Pipe made from Philippine. For me, I prefer the exhaust from YY Pang and AHM since it is already tested and used in Malaysian Cub Prix Championship. But I don’t know if the TENCUT pipe is used in racing in Philippine.
Yamaha LC135 or Sniper in Bermuda
Yamaha LC135 is also known as Sniper in certain country such as Bermuda. The bike is not much different with what we have here in Malaysia. The rear brake is drum. The front brake is still one piston caliper even though the bike is equipped with manual clutch [in Malaysia the front brake is two-piston caliper for manual clutch version]. One thing that amazes me is the rims. I wonder what brand and model of rim it is. The exhaust has been already modified to a new one.

LC135 is known as X1R in Thailand. The differences can be spotted from the missing of front head lamp replaced by a bigger lamp on the fairing. (more…)

The exhaust used for this bike is AHM. There are several brand of racing exhaust that can be fitted to LC 135 being the Arrow and the most popular YY Pang. I have asked for the price for the AHM, and the shop told me it is cheap compared to the original LC 135 Catalyzer exhaust that cost about RM480. So, will you change your exhaust?
