      Yes that is Mahima chaudhary ....

      I remember the Lyrics of the commercial and the visuals ....

      The Lyrics went " O... Yamaha makes it Happen ... OO Let the world stand by ... YA-MA-HA "

      The video was of a bunch of student's graduation day and they are all wearing academic robes and doff their mortarboard hats at the end of the advert ...

                    Nope not YEIS you see RX100 was sent off coz it pollutes a LOT, when the emissions standards changed it called for a less polluting motor. The tards at Escorts restricted the exhaust port and the transfers to make motor put out less poison in the air. But little did they realise they screwed up big time on reliability, read somewhere they had to swap rotors and CDIs on many RXGs for free idk somebody "old" enough might be able to confirm this.

                        If Doc & Frank Sir can work on this project together, then nothing like it.

                        That 4-stroke is one ugly duckling!!!!! It looks more like "Crux R", good it never came out in 90s.

                        Btw Doc, you a regular MBBS doctor or with some specialization?
