I have this RX100 for past 3 years before that I had a RX135. I don't want to upgrade to a bigger bike or a 4 stroke as of the following reasons.

1. traffic
2. high cost involved 60k... The point is why should I
3. I love my Yamaha can't sell it off

the Yamaha is in very bad condition as the owner before me had left it to rust for nearly 4 years, spent around 13k at that for the bike cost + to get it moving

The total rebuild today with all OEM parts exceeds 30k which has made it a tough decision for me, I am looking for help to make a decision as the dilemma is growing on me. I want a trouble free ride for the next 2 ( if possible 4 years ) I hope this makes my position more clear to you.

also apart from engine parts I also have to replace the complete silencer, is it advisable to go for original or duplicate make is fine as long as I use every thing in the engine OEM
Look at it this way. Can you buy RX100 performance for Rs.30k? A 150cc bike will cost you atleast Rs.60k as you said. Unless ofcourse anybody wants to argue that Splendour is more an equitable comparison

I suggest, you restore it completely with all OEM parts and ENJAI I am sure thoughts of selling it off will not occur to you once you restore it properly.
