Yamaha RX 100 2025 : The Yamaha RX 100, a legendary name in motorcycling history, is set to make a grand return in 2025. This iconic bike, celebrated for its retro charm and spirited performance, is being reimagined for today’s riders while staying true to its roots. Yamaha’s revival isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s a thoughtful blend of classic design and contemporary engineering, ensuring the new RX 100 meets modern emission norms and rider expectations.
Design A Timeless Look with Modern Touches
The 2025 RX 100 shares the clear profile lines (a round headlamp with flat nose and short tail) and the no-nonsense stance of its predecessor. Just so, but Yamaha has skillfully woven in contemporary touches for greater appeal. The bike comes with LEDs and gets round LED headlamp with DRLs and an LED tail lamp. They’ve ditched the older spoke wheels in favour of alloy wheels for a neater look, while the gfx are refreshed to make the bike look sharper. The effect is vintage to the core, but completely modern in execution.
Performance A Responsive and Efficient Engine
The first version of RX 100 was popular for its two-stroke engine, but with further emission control norms being enforced Yamaha in its 2025 version is going for a four-stroke engine. The new RX will be powered by either a 125cc or 150cc air-cooled motor that will focus primarily on low-end torque and rapid acceleration, just like the first generation motorcycle. Though it may not have the distinctive bark of a two-stroke, Yamaha says you can still expect a spirited, though restrained, riding experience that will be perfect for city hops and quick runs down the highway. Power is expected between 12–14 PS, gear ratios are set to secure quick and direct throttle response.
Handling Lightweight and Agile
What helped made the RX 100 still and all is its portable body and swift handling. The 2025 model is no exception to this, being lighter than 120 kilograms for easy handling. A sturdy diamond-type or tubular framge gaurantees stability and telescopic front fork and twin rear shock absorbers gives a comfortable ride. Braking, on the other hand, will get a combination of front disc and rear drum and it will be backed by single-channel ABS for better stopping power. From zigzagging through tight city streets, to long meanders along country lanes, the new RX 100 is designed for a fun ride at all times.
Features Retro Meets Modern Tech
Though it remains true to its old school cool, the RX 100 2025 doesn’t shun modern comforts. Key improvements include a digital console (speed, trip and gear indicator) a side stand engine cut-off for extra safety, and a convenient USB charging port for on to go connectivity. Making the bike more practical are LED turn indicators and an engine kill switch which does not mar the bike’s classic-ness.
Fuel Efficiency and Pricing
Despite its performance-oriented design, Yamaha has prioritized fuel efficiency to cater to Indian riders. The RX 100 2025 is expected to deliver around 55–60 km/l, making it both thrilling and economical. Pricing is anticipated to be competitive, likely under ₹1.20 lakh (ex-showroom), positioning it against rivals like the TVS Raider and Bajaj Pulsar NS125.
Launch and Target Audience
The Yamaha RX 100 2025 is expected to debut in mid-2025, appealing to a diverse audience—retro bike enthusiasts, urban commuters, and younger riders seeking a blend of heritage and modernity. For those who cherished the original, this revival offers a chance to relive memories; for new riders, it’s an opportunity to own a piece of motorcycling history.
