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.Originally posted by karthikdattag View PostAnd what is that 'Green' thing about RXG, are they referring to YEIS technology?RIP ਕਾਕਾ ਭੈਣੀਆਂਵਾਲਾ (Santokh Singh Rataurh)
