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.

User Reviews for Yamaha RX
Perfect choice for those looking to get into street racing and stunts
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
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
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
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.
