    [QUOTE=karthikdattag;573427]100Kmph in 3rd gear, that too for an RX100 !!!! You should have tapped to 4th, probably you would have ended up doing 140Kmph on 4th.

    You even realize what you are talking? If we are to believe you, then probably in entire India, you have the fastest street spec RX100.

    That is some serious speed. How about trading my Stage 3+ ported RX135 5-Speed for your RX100......

    Bro .But everybody does mot have that much knowledge and also everybody doesn't have sigma and speed gun etc.speed claimed here is speedo reading.We are here to learn from this forum from you guys only.So please don't make fun of anybody.Tell him calmly that stock Rx100 can't hit 100 in 3rd gear.
    no offence intended to anybody.

    No offence Bro.5 speed +16/34 in Rx100 Man bike won't even cross 5000rpm.How are you gonna pull those 5 gears and that too with 16/34No Way! I am saying this because i tried 16/34 and then u need 5 kms straight road to accelerate.I touched 115kmph on SPEEDO.

    However, its good to change both the front suspensions. No need to change the fork as Glad's front suspension is direct fit on Rx's fork.


    No need to change rim & tyres. I run on a CD100's rim (18") with 2.50 X 18 tire.

    When you've time, go through the 80+ pages on this thread, it has more than all required information on Rx discussed & will help you understand most basic to intermediate things - http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/thumpers...ariants-3.html
    Hey Aargee,
    Thanks for your valuable advice. Will surely go through that thread. I have already read thru it once, but i will read it once more as i cant remember things easily maan (seriuos memory issues).

    Aargee : the reply was in turn for your question (If you're working onsite, yes, quite understandable. When you're working offshore (India), then what's the problem? Work load?)

    Many times i have thought of going in for a disc setup, but since i get to ride my bike only for a month i have still not make any decision yet.
    But yes if ever i get a chance i will certainly do it.

    @PB - Dude, I don't have any intentions to offend you, but the point I'm trying to say is do not do such extreme mods that's all. I used to have a ported 135 (don't ask me details as I was more than dumb ass then) with TM28 (mains on 180) & once I'd an opportunity to ride even with the silencer removed, the max I could reach out in 3rd was 90 Kmph with 16/34 sprockets. I can still do (stock) 3rd & 80 on the same setup.

    Get real dude & check your facts before you post. You can go & fool whomever you want in some other sites, sorry not on xbhp 2-stokes forum. I know very well what it takes for a 2-Stroke single cylinder air-cooled engine < 150cc displacement to make it reach a 100Kmph in 3rd gear.

    Now i know why Ganesh (aargee) was asking if you were serious about your questions.

    I am still in shock. Need a break now.

    Comment what? Its a direct fit & one SHOULD consider opting for it.
    Thanks for confirming it Aargee..

    The problem is when i come home for holidays, have lot of family obligations...rest if there is any problem with the bike then i immediately run to my mechanic...i hvnt ridden her for more than 5 months now...will have to go and check.

    You'll need 5 gears + 16/34 combination to exceed from the current top speed at the cost of slight acceleration.

See what happens is when the AFMixture is travelling from the carb to the ignition chamber through the reed it is sort of travelling in pulses. This box it acts as a buffer and stores the charge. It dramatically improves your low end by doubling the pulse
    OK. THanks man.that's how you differentiate a RXG or RX135 from Rx100 if found without stickers Should i give a try to power box?What do i need to buy?resonator,manifold and pipe?? It's there in shogun as well googled it.So, what are the after effects of powerbox on rx100?
