Yamaha RX 135 Review
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
Yamaha RX135 can be more clearly seen as a bigger version of the RX100, which was a superstar of its time. The RX135 has minor changes over the smaller one, making more power and having more gears than the RX100. The only major difference was the name badge which displayed that whether it's a 100 or a 135. The RX135 shares its design with the much older RX100. The motorcycle again offers chrome everywhere. Since it suits the body design, we won't say it was a negative approach. Yamaha would have made it with the thought of empowering the little buddy RX100 and hence justifies the 3 more BHP's in the numbers. The classic spoke wheeled ride is in the trends even after a decade of its discontinuation.
Yamaha had planted a 132cc motor, which was a 2-stroke air-cooled system, producing 14 BHP @ 7500 rpm and 12.25 NM @ 7000 rpm. The motorcycle performed very well and its acceleration was really awesome. The 135 cc motor was expected to decrease the figures of 0-60 kmph, but due to increased weight of the bike, the change was not so excellent. Overall, RX 135 was powerful than the RX 100, but for that, the mileage was equally sacrificed. The mileage dropped to 30 kmpl. The braking is supported by 130mm drum units, both for the front and the rear.
The suspension was handled by telescopic forks at the front and swingarm, coil spring type at the rear with 5- step adjustments. The motorcycle missed an option for the disc braking system and made it extremely risky to drive at high speeds. Yamaha offered its RX135 in Black Gold, Candy Maroon and Riviera Green options. It was priced at INR 40,000 (approx.). With an improvement in performance over its older version, the 135cc machine was really impressive. The lack of safety made it a lesser practical version and after that, an option with disc brake was given, which was named RXZ 135.

I want to buy Yamaha RX 100 but the resale price is expensive. Shall I buy this or go for any new sporty model?

Well, if you will buy this Yamaha RX 100 at high rates then you have to restore it completely to use it legally and it will need a big chunk of money.After that maintenance costs will also be too high. Hence, instead of buying an old Yamaha RX 100, you should go for any modern sporty bike.

When the new Yamaha RX 100 is going to launch?
13 Sep, 2021
The Yamaha RX 100 was discontinued due to government rules to decrease pollution. Its 2-stroke engine produces more smoke hence, legally it doesn’t come back with the same engine. However, the company can introduce it again by making the required changes.
