Vehicle Overview Yamaha RX135 is classic Indian legend that performed outstandingly during its time of sale. It was using a 132cc, single cylinder, 2-stroke engine, good for 12 BHP and 10 Nm of torque. Its light 106 kg of weight provided the bike with the best in class power to weight ratio. It came with an option between 4-speed and 5-speed gearbox and claimed a top speed of 110 kmph. It used 130 mm drum brake for both front and rear wheel. When Yamaha RX135 was being sold, there were very few options in the biking industry, limiting the competition to just Suzuki Shogun and other RX series bikes.

Yamaha RX 135 4-Speed Review

21 Dec, 2021 04:40 PM

Quick Review by Maxabout Team

Yamaha RX135 is classic Indian legend that performed outstandingly during its time of sale. It is lightweight and has a low ride height, which makes it quite comfortable to drive. This commuter bike was quite popular despite its low mileage. The RX135 was powered by a 132cc single cylinder 2-stroke engine that churns out a maximum power of 12 hp and a peak torque of 10 Nm. The lightweight of the bike, at 106 kg, was a big factor in its performance. The power-to-weight ratio of the bike was the best in its class. There was an option to choose the bike with either a four-speed transmission or a five-speed transmission. The combined mileage of the bike was between 25 kmpl and 35 kmpl and the top speed was 110 kmph.

At its time, there were only a few options available in the Indian markets for this price range, and its only competitor was the Suzuki Shogun. But in terms of performance, the RX135 outshone the Suzuki completely. Many features that we see today on the most basic bikes were missing from the RX135 but still, it was a legend and still continues to be one of the bikes that people want. There are no ABS or Disc brakes on the bike and the front and the rear feature drum brakes. There are telescopic forks on the front and a swing arm at the rear which handle the suspension duties. The RX135 was available in three different shades, Black Gold, Candy Maroon, Riviera Green.

Perfect choice for those looking to get into street racing and stunts

Shiba Ansari | 2 years ago

The Yamaha RX135 is the perfect choice for those looking to get into street racing and stunts. It has a powerful stock exhaust sound that is sure to turn heads and make it the envy of all your peers. In terms of mileage, you can expect to get around 35-40 kilometres per litre depending on how you ride. Comfort wise, the bike is quite comfortable, but those with larger body types may want to look elsewhere. 

All in all, the RX135 is an incredibly reliable bike and is sure to provide you with an amazing riding experience.

Too much noise

Prem Shankar Baghel | 2 years ago
helpful 0

This bike is a classic in the Yamaha 135cc segment, and it is well known for its powerful engine. The mileage of the bike is quite low, ranging from 45-50 kmpl in normal road conditions, and up to 55 kmpl on highways. The bike is quite heavy and requires a lot of maintenance, which can be expensive. The looks of the bike are not very attractive, and it produces a lot of noise and smoke from the silencer. It is not a very comfortable bike to ride.

Starting the bike in cold weather can be a real challenge

Rahul Sahu | One year ago

RX135 is a street bike that has been around for quite a while and still packs a punch. Its power is unbeatable compared to other bikes in the 125-150cc range. It's a thrill to ride it, especially in the summertime. However, starting the bike in cold weather can be a real challenge. Also, since the bike is so old, finding spare parts can be difficult. Despite this, the bike runs well and it's a great experience to cruise around on a 20-25 year old machine.

Riding the RX135 was a thrilling experience

Piyush Pahadiya Khatik | 2 years ago

Riding the RX135 was a thrilling experience. The pick up was great and the exhaust note was definitely unique. Even though the bike is no longer in production, it still has a large fan base. The RX135 had great predecessors and successors such as the RX100 and RXZ, but none of them could match the excitement of riding the wild horse.

The mileage of the RX135 was not that great, but it all depends on the rider and the way they ride the bike. The stability of the RX135 at high speeds was good, but it could get a bit shaky when faced with strong cross winds.

Overall, my experience with the RX135 was great and I highly recommend others to experience it for themselves.

Photo provided is not accurate .The price 36000 Is not a rate for the model shown in picture .The model shown is among the last series of rx 135 @ 2005 or the round instrument cluster but the cat silencer comparatively smaller one compared to the previous edition is missing in photo .In 2002 itself when I bought my rx 135 it was 50000 on road .say 48000 ex showroom. Climbing ability 10 degree mentioned also seems funny for those who owned rx 135

The bike has a cult following even today, but it got discontinued long ago due to emission norms imposed by Indian Government.
