YAMAHA WILL RELAUNCH THEIR LEGENDARY RX-100 MODEL IN INDIA.



Yamaha RX100, the dream bike of younger generation of mid and late 1980's, will be relaunched soon with new style and standard technology.
Yamaha launched RX100 in 1985 in alliance with Escorts Ltd which has two-stroke engine that give more power and performance. RX-100 is known very well for its speed, low maintenance and other such factors. Two stroke engines allowed riders to ride the bike at very low rpm in higher gears (for instance 10 km/hr in fourth gear).
But the disappointing fact is that RX-100 was a high polluter. During 1990, new emission norms related to pollution came into effect and Yamaha and other two wheeler companies forced to withdraw their two-stroke engine vehicles.
Old RX-100 Model has high demand in the secondhand bikes category. So Yamaha decided to maintain the same design of the earlier bike but this time the model will be powered by a four stroke engine.
