Is the Yamaha RX 135 really the 'King of the Streets' or is it just nostalgia, overhyped?
The King of the Streets, the Yamaha RX 135 has become a legend motorcycle in India. This was a quick acceleration, lightweight, two stroke wonder with its distinctive exhaust note. On the other hand, with modern bikes throwing in more features and much better fuel efficiency at the same time, some prefer to think of the RX 135's legacy as a matter of nostalgia rather than as proof. The debate is always about whether the bike's raw power and simplicity can still hold its own against today's technology laden motorcycles. Whether modern bikes can offer the same visceral experience as a two stroke, or what its possibilities are regarding modding are what enthusiasts argue about. The question also extends to the greater question of classic versus modern motorcycles and if the RX 135’s cult status is earned in the current riding landscape.
The RX 135 is pure adrenaline on two wheels. Man! There’s nothing like that power band kick when it gets to 5000 RPM. In comparison to modern bikes, they feel soulless.
