India Yamaha Motors, a subsidiary of the Japanese biking giant, is functioning on the modification of its once-popular model, the RX 100 which was the choice of many young Indians in the mid and late 1980's and planning to relaunch it. The company is basically working on engine type and styling. However, it would largely maintain the basic design of the earlier vehicle.
Pankaj Dubey, national business head, India Yamaha Motor, said that they were working on the lines of the RX 100 and were looking to have something of a similar product for India.
One of the main reasons of phasing out the RX 100 was the adoption of stricter emission control norms in the country as the bike was a high polluter and its two-stroke engine had a problem meeting the required norms.
Yamaha will not reintroduce the RX 100 with a two-stroke bike, as India would upgrade to even stricter Bharat Stage IV emission norms in the coming months. However the company is working on a four-stroke version for the bike. According to experts the launch could shoot Yamaha’s volumes multi-fold if the bike is priced in the same category as other entry or commuter level bikes.

- RX 100 A Living LegendThis was not just a bike it has its own character. The reason behind selecting this bike is the power of 2 stroke engine and its sound. It has an old school look which looks cool and because of its low weight it is easy to handle. This bike is made for city ride only because it has 2 stroke engine so it has some heating issue and we can't drive at higher rpms for long time. But at low rpm it sounds like heaven and the sound has its own identity. This bike is 100% recommended but it is not in production so if you get it in second hand market then just grab it because the price of it will definitely increase in upcoming days. It is difficult to find one but once you get one it is going to be crazy.Read More39 11

- My personal Experience With the bikeFrom last eight Years I am using this bike. The most likely thing is love in it is the sound which is old as gold till date. The look and the classy in it Is simply wow. Even though it gives a mileage of less also it is worth to have this bike. Most of the people in my locality are still a big fan of it.Read More15 3
