The stunner of 80's

 Yamaha RX100  was a stunner of its era and even today a motorcycle enthusiast will never leave it unnoticed .It was launched after the dramatic failure of there expensive and powerful model RD 350 because India  needs much less displacement bikes.Sadly just like today, Indians always looked for fuel efficiency rather than enjoying the motor.Yamaha's competitors who were Kawasaki ,IND-suzuki,HeroHonda ....introduced many 100 cc variants like CD100,KB100,AX 100 so and so.And when this stunner arrived into our market it was just a premium hit.Cause nobody believes it got a 100 cc engine since it was giving more power.And this was used in race tracks and mud racing .When properly tuned this machine performs like a workhorse.It gained many tiltles all over india.And it even got banned in many cities like delhi and uttarakhand cause it was used for chain snapping (Just utilizing its advantages for bad purpose).Even now it got some gud after market values.
