Man,I love the color blue,not the flashy blue like the previous shade,but a more mellowed shade.Really happy that i got the exact color.Will post the difference between the two shades.Originally posted by Bibhu View Post
Sriram,your dream has indeed inspired another dream.And many more to come.Thanks a lot!.And i didn't rebuild the engine,so won't have to worry about running-in.But point noted for future reference!Originally posted by SriramEfunds View Post@dmkmonk congrats! It's an awesome feeling I know when you have realized your dream. I've been there,done that, two years ago.
Now its a crucial stage. Runnin. You need to be careful and be attentive to the detail of engine note and behaviour. Your engine is bound to heat up (New rings) a lot so remember to give a break regularly. Try not to over feed 2T oil as it spoils cumbustion thus results in sluggish response.
Hehe,Thanks a lot Man!.Will surely post a video.That EARGASMIC roar,haa!!Originally posted by rxsmoke View PostCongrats Bro!!!,,Proud to see another stroker getting restored.!!That too a jap Rx100..And post a video of her roaring.I bet she sounds pretty sweet.!!Cheers man,Ride safe.

Re: Restoration of a 1989 Yamaha RX100,by an 18 year old.
Wonderful mate. Eye candy for everyone. Good work and wonderful output.
One more suggestion, get the GB case stickered / painted with a black strip / circle (like the below snap)
This will add more character to RX
Edit:
Just noticed the screws for side shield. Man, change them to the bigger slotted screw.

Re: Restoration of a 1989 Yamaha RX100,by an 18 year old.
Awesome job!
I don't like the cylinder/bore painted black though, spoils the final look. What is the condition of the bore? Perhaps you could consider replacing it later.Comment

Re: Restoration of a 1989 Yamaha RX100,by an 18 year old.
Thanks a lot brother.
Its running 2nd O/S piston now.The perfomance and compression is good enough.Anyways will be stocking some critical spares for the future.And bore kit will be in it.Black was just a matter of personal preference,as most parts are either chrome,or silver.Comment

Wov..."The Calm Before the Storm" is that the original Nylogrip ST 2.75 x18 came on the 'authentic"RX ? make sure you put the Carb Boot Rubber, or water will enter the carb in mansoons.other wise everything looks perfect. enjoy your rideLast edited by satishg; 03-07-2014, 12:42 PM.Comment

Had been watching this thread for a while!Originally posted by dmkmonk View Post
Very nice build.
Between, RX's upper chain cover has the opening for lubrication ?
May be the later models and RXG/135 had it in lower chain cover?Comment
