The Yamaha RX 100 2025 has officially made its comeback, bringing one of India’s most iconic motorcycles into the modern age. Revered for its raw charm, agility, and unmistakable exhaust note, the RX 100 has long been a symbol of style and speed. Now, Yamaha has reintroduced this legend with a perfect mix of nostalgia and cutting-edge engineering, appealing equally to the old-school loyalists and a new generation of riders looking for character, performance, and reliability in one stunning package.
Nimble, Light, and Effortlessly Fun
Staying true to its roots, the new RX 100 retains the classic lightweight steel frame, tipping the scales at just 135 kg. This compact construction translates to excellent maneuverability—making it a joy to weave through city traffic or take on twisty roads. The RX 100’s agility remains its strongest trait, offering an intuitive and responsive ride that feels both engaging and confidence-inspiring, perfect for everyday commutes or casual weekend spins.
A Perfect Balance of Power and Efficiency
Under the retro bodywork lies a thoroughly modern heart—a 225cc single-cylinder, fuel-injected engine. This engine delivers brisk acceleration and smooth power delivery, paying homage to the original’s zippy nature while maintaining refinement and control. Yamaha’s advanced fuel management system ensures impressive fuel efficiency of 40–45 km/l, making it not only thrilling but also practical for daily use. Whether you’re zipping through city streets or cruising on open roads, the RX 100 2025 offers the right mix of punch and economy.
Safety with a Modern Touch
While the classic spirit remains intact, Yamaha has smartly infused the RX 100 2025 with essential modern safety features. It comes equipped with a front disc and rear drum brake setup, offering dependable stopping power. Riders can also opt for ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) for enhanced control, especially on slippery surfaces. This combination ensures the bike remains safe and predictable—ideal for both new riders and experienced enthusiasts who love a spirited yet secure ride.
Retro-Futuristic Design That Turns Heads
Design-wise, Yamaha has struck gold. The RX 100 2025 perfectly captures the essence of the original model with its round headlamp, chrome-finished exhaust, and minimalist silhouette, while adding a contemporary flair through premium paint finishes and subtle modern detailing. The result? A motorcycle that looks timeless yet fresh—retro enough to spark nostalgia, modern enough to feel right at home on today’s streets.
Classic Feel, Modern Comfort
Riders will appreciate the 5-speed manual gearbox, smooth suspension setup featuring telescopic front forks and twin rear shocks, and a comfortable saddle designed for long rides. The riding position is upright and relaxed, making it ideal for daily commutes as well as weekend escapes. Every element, from the crisp digital-analog instrument console to the chrome mirrors, contributes to the RX 100’s distinct old-meets-new personality.
The Yamaha RX 100 2025 isn’t just a motorcycle—it’s a cultural revival. Yamaha has managed to preserve its soul while upgrading everything else to meet today’s standards of performance, safety, and efficiency. Priced at around ₹1.25 lakh (ex-showroom), it’s an affordable yet charismatic option for riders who want something more than just a means of transport—a statement of individuality.
With its retro styling, agile performance, and refined engineering, the RX 100 2025 is poised to reignite a legacy that once defined Indian streets—and now, it’s ready to do it all over again.
