Sharing you the ownership review of my beloved baby, Yamaha RX100.
1994 Model
2 owners in papers and I was the third owner
Color - Black
Buying experience:
I was in search of a used car and found a decent 2001 model Zen, White color, 2nd owner with 58k on odo. Owner was my friend's neighbor and this was one of his three cars at home used by his wife. Asking price - 1.15 lacs, after several bargains, settled the deal to 90k
The same day I sold my year old Apache RTR 160 with 6k odo reading to one of my friend and I was in the process of arranging Vitamin'M' for the purchase. The next day I got a call from the zen owner saying that his family has some sentimental attachment towards that car, being that was their first four wheeler, so he don't want to sell the car.
Got shocked on hearing this, as I have already sold my virgin bike to the other guy and he paid the entire amount on the spot.
Kept aside the plan of getting a used car and started searching for used bikes which I wanted on fire footing urgency.
On a sunday fortunately I met a mechanic with his recently restored Yamaha RX-100
On enquiry he said it is his profession to restore the bikes and sell it. He offered me the bike for 25k. The price seemed to be too high for a 16year old machine, but after having a TD, decided to take her. With certain negotiation, bought the baby home for 22k the same day after checking the documents.
