      And heard 135 4 speed has better fuel efficiency than 135 5 speed... is that true?

        Of course 4 speed less power more FE, 5 speed more power less FE.

          I owned an rx100 for 6 years.RX 100's are supposedly made for 11bhp only.but sure ,there is some difference in 87models.but 14bhp?not for rx100 , I suppose.


          reg the OP , RX135 sure is a better one.but the cult of the name "RX100" is so deep rooted ,so no brand RXG or rx135 cant attract the mass who care for rx100 logo only(thats almost 14 years back ).

                Depends on how you ride.

                AFAIK RX100 would give a mileage around 35 - 40

                  well guys since i am getting a 2000 model bike for 20k nego, i wanted to know is it a good deal?
                  wanted to know how was the performance of the 2000 model 135 4 speed....

                  is there any performance changes with the early batch and last batches that were rolled out?

                    Rx 100

                    Hello All
                    guys i am getting a second hand Rx 100.i have seen one bike now.
                    the owner of the bike is quoting 15,500 for the 91 model bike. FC has to be done, insurance has to be paid.
                    the bike is in good condition though.could see the bike only for a moment cos the mechanic had to take it back to the owner place.
                    My mechanic says he can bargain and get the bike sold for 14000 to me and FC and insurance and minor tuning and repair costs extra.
                    is it a good deal for 14000?
                    did not see the kms done also.i too was in a hurry.

                    Now
                    is it a good deal?
                    What is the mileage of rx 100 that can be expected?

                    guys help me out with this....
                    thanks in advance

                      Query Approved

                      Well Rx 100 for 14k is not a bad deal at all, as you say the bike is in a good condition. I would advice you to ride the bike and see if you find it worth the money. And its hard to comment on the mileage, i think you should get a decent mileage between 25-35kmpl.

                        Its hard to say 14 k is good because without riding we can know the state of the forks and engine state.. try to find out what over size piston its running in.. and be sure to get a ride of the bike..

                        It hard to buy 2-strokes buddy.. even if it look like it's in good condition cant say whether the small engine part are good or not.. Be ready to shell out some money after u buy it.. Mileage not more than 30

                          Rx 100 for 14

                          That tooo 91 Model - I belive it is too much for it

                          But any way you say that it is in Good condition - but make sure you trust the mechanic and if not get some good Bike gurus in your area and have a test drive of it.

                          Then go for a buy - you wont get the mileage beyond 35 unless a Reboring is been done
                          But all RX is for only performance ..................

                          But again im saying 14 is too much for it ............ i will be ok if its a 10K or something lesser than that
                          Coz i got a rx for my friend for just 9bucks that is also 91 model ..........
                          But it was in a SOmehow buyable condition and we spend some 8K for renovating it

                              i know i tried replying in that but somehow was not able to post there so had to start a new thread.if it can be merged then please do it. this way suggesting me would be easier with the earlier suggestions.
                              btw psycho will be looking forward for suggestions from your end. i am planning to do my bike something similar to yours(only cosmetic)

                                Well no matter how many times you ask me i say the same, dump the idea of getting an rx 100 and get a rx 135 5 speed. i know a certain 5 speed which is up for sale but i have not seen it in person so don't know howz the condition.

                                But 5 speeds in bangalore mint condition you will not get nothing les than 30k man, if you are serious about it i can surely help you out.
