I am driving RX 135 for just a year and a half only. Frankly I am not a crazy rider and neither interested in racing. But I fancied a second hand RX and got one 97 model last year. It was really wonderful and good comfort vehicle to drive. Maintained it to the best possible extent, that it gave 46+ mileage in highways and 42+ in city plus the vehicle was being trouble free. Just perfect and superb.
Somehow I was not convinced as it was not on Cat-con. So Sold off the RX 135 for cheap(just 27.5 K) and another vehicle Yamaha SS 125 for(27.5k) in a span of a week and the same day, got an opportunity to buy almost mint conditioned RX 135 of December 2005.yes I have the RC and the service manual from the previous owner(the only owner till I bought). I never knew that and always thought August 2005 was last as it is wrongly shown in Wikipedia. So Last RX available were December 2005 and 2006 was the ban year start for two stroke with cat-cons.
Well the craze never stops and the price was actually slightly heavy, but still worth as the owner had driven it less and maintained it well. Every inch of the vehicle was in showroom condition, except that few minor scratches and rusting, that's all. First kick start and smooth silencer noise, as if it was a 4 stroke. My previous Yamaha gave Dhug Dhug beat, but this gave zig zig zig zig beat, too low decibel. Emissions very less even compared to 4 strokes.
Pretty decent to drive and I love to drive on highways at 40, just cruising and enjoying .let the whole world zoom past me. They are not on RX 2005 model, I am. That is so much for me. Only problem I seat is hard, ditto like Crux. Get back pain in just 10 KM ride. Ned to change that to foam and change shock spring settings.
Rarely if ever you get to touch a huge piece of Gold and I have got my first opportunity. Now need to run the vehicle another 20 years. So buying 25 K worth of accessory, available in the market to ensure I don't need to panic in future.
Let the fuel of two stroke be burning in your thoughts. Keep the fire of your biking passion ignited in your soul.
Ride-n-ride till you get mesmerized, enjoy every moment and RX will lead you towards your goal.
Definitely a Yamaha RX rider is miles ahead.With Lots of Love.
