Remember the iconic Yamaha RX100, the sleek, powerful bike that ruled Indian roads in the 80s and 90s? Get ready for a blast from the past, because the legend is coming back with a bang! Mark your calendars for December 2026, as Yamaha gears up to reintroduce the RX100 with a modern twist, promising to reignite the passion for two-wheeled freedom.
Not Just Nostalgia, But a Modern Marvel
Forget the “same old, same old.” The new RX100 is a carefully crafted blend of nostalgia and innovation. While retaining the classic charm of the original, it packs in contemporary features to match today’s riding demands.
Engine Revving with Power
While the original RX100 boasted a 100cc two-stroke engine, the 2026 version gets a modern upgrade with a 98cc four-stroke engine. This eco-friendly powerhouse delivers 11 PS of power and 10.39 Nm of torque, ensuring that the adrenaline rush remains as exhilarating as ever.
Stopping Power You Can Trust
The new RX100 prioritizes safety without compromising on the classic appeal. While drum brakes were the norm back in the day, you now have the option of both drum and disc brakes, giving you more control and confidence on every ride.
Fuel Efficiency You’ll Appreciate
Remember those frequent fuel station visits? Worry not, the new RX100 is designed with fuel efficiency in mind. The 10-liter fuel tank ensures longer rides without the need for constant refilling, making your journeys more enjoyable and cost-effective.
A Feast for Your Eyes
The classic round headlight, the sleek long seat, and the chrome exhaust – the new RX100 retains the iconic design elements that made it a head-turner. But it goes further, with a modern touch that blends seamlessly with the vintage charm.
Digital Dash for the Modern Rider
Gone are the days of analog dials. The new RX100 boasts a stylish digital display, providing clear and accurate information about speed, fuel level, time, and distance.
An Affordable Dream
The best part? The new Yamaha RX100 is expected to be priced around Rs 1 lakh, making it an accessible dream for many riders. With its blend of heritage, modern features, and affordability, the RX100 is poised to reclaim its throne as the king of the road.
