IMO, do not buy the cylinder unless its from a very very trust worthy person. The cylinders are not being sold by Yamaha & most of the box packs that you see here are stocked up by someone long back & are up now for sale. Just wait & see for some more time.

The original block will have a printed number "4TL00" (normal silver one) if the shopkeeper gives you a bore numbering 3KA (black colour) i would say avoid it.Originally posted by spm_clt View Postbtw how can i identify original rx cylinder one seller offered me 135 4 speed kit for 6200/-. the MRP printed on the box is 7500 or so . is yamaha distributing thai made kits in India in their original packing? the piston rings were from Goetzethe carton was opened how can i decide it is spurious or not?
Check the above differences and decide, even if goetze piston is there pick it up, the original piston ART costs 1,200/- goetze is not bad at all, goetze caton can is blue in colour, i am quiet surprised with its build qaulity even with the abuse i give it
all the time.
No yamaha is not distrubuting the thai kits, these kits are cheap replicas

There are silver bore kits also available in some parts of our country which have "RX135" printed in place of "4TL10 or 4TL00". And these are from Taiwan, basically a cheap imitation model. The good part is the dealers whom i had contacted, openly accepted that those were not the OEM kits, but duplicate ones.Originally posted by psycho 98 View PostThe original block will have a printed number "4TL00" (normal silver one) if the shopkeeper gives you a bore numbering 3KA (black colour) i would say avoid it.

And FYI, the price is not more than Rs.3000/- per piece. I will try posting the pics as soon as i have them.
Regarding piston, please dont settle for anything other than ART or TOPPRO. Everything else is just a compromise, especially on a high revving engine.
Yamaha is not distributing any kits w.r.t RX135, as you have mentioned, they really dont have time & energy to invest on RX series anymore. This info i had posted long back.
Thanks.

What is wrong in buying piston-cylinder kit if they are 5-6 yrs old as long as they are the original ones ?Originally posted by aargee View Post@Spm - You bought everything at good prices

You need to change your mindset in such trying times or atleast keep them to yourself & not provoke others.
Tell me one thing frankly, who will give you bill for a bore-kit stocked up say 5yrs back ? Even if they have the bill, why would they sell it at the same price ?
Do you have any option (Except re-sleeve or black bore) ?
Please dont expect everything to be available under one roof. As an excercise try to search a 5-Speed bore kit, hell even a used one running 0.25mm or 0.5mm with head, you will know what pain is!!!
@spm_clt: There is nothing wrong in buying an OEM kit from XYZ as long as you know how to check the originality for the same. Psycho has already given some tips, maybe somebody can post pics of how a company box piece looks with all the accesories. There are many guys here who maybe able to help you, but you just have to be patient & try to match their price. I have myself purchased numerous accesories from 3rd party vendors, but definately after checking the originality & the condition. If you depend only on Yamaha showroom, then god save you.

Originally posted by aargee View PostIts not impossible, I'm aware of this sourcing stuffs; See my other thread on my build where I've posted all the parts that I've procured. When you start searching for parts, the first thing that you encounter are conmen who wants to sell things without bill at MRP or more. So that's about my experience.
My intention to ask this question was if all the 5 gears are available OR most importanly if the gear sprockets are pressed in the main axle as it is also available without the sprockets AND I wanted to check the feasibility of getting a main axle without sprockets, if possible. I'm not sure who's not reading the posts properly as this question has been still left unanswered.
Anyway, even, I don't intend to continue as I see people losing cool on few simple questions.
the main axle gears are come pressed with it there is no seprate gears ,ya the drive axle gears come sepratly u have to pressed it
and i said the same thing but kartik didnt understand or he had any confusion

For over heating there're several reason, try searching & let know if you don't find any.Originally posted by spm_clt View PostI have the problem of engine over heating compared to other rxs he said it will be fine after running period ,nothing else,no problem , being a resleeved one its performance is good.

The only problem with sleeved one is the life!!! If a rebored OE cylinder lasts for 10 years, the sleeved one lasts 1/3rd or 1/4th of the original. The sleeved ones do not last long.Skill is what keeps you on a Motorcycle
