Yamaha RX100: You must know about Yamaha’s famous bike name rx100, Yamaha RX 100. This bike was very popular in the country due to its tremendous performance and excellent pick-up.
Recently, news of the re-launch of this motorcycle in India came to light. But now its launch is difficult. Yamaha Motor India President Ishin Chihana told about the difficulties in its launch. Let us know what difficulties may be faced in bringing it back to the market.
It is difficult to give ‘ring-ding-ding’ soundtrack in the bike
The soundtrack of RX100 was ‘ring-ding-ding’, giving it again in the motorcycle can be a big task. Actually, this bike earlier came with a 2-stroke engine, which was discontinued due to pollution. Now most bikes come with 4-stroke engines, which are environmentally friendly. Creating a ‘ring-ding-ding’ soundtrack with a 4-stroke engine is almost an impossible task.
Difficult to make in less weight
The modern avatar of RX100 can be given in old school style. But it is very difficult to make it in the same weight as it used to come earlier. According to Ishin Chihana, a 100cc bike cannot perform very well. To increase the performance of the bike, at least a 200cc engine will have to be installed in it.
May be launched after 2026
Recently it was told that this bike can be launched soon. But now it is being said that this bike can be launched after 2026. But looking at the difficulties in making it, it seems that it may take 3 to 4 more years to come in the market.
