The Japanese manufacturer of two-wheelers has confirmed that it will introduce the RX100 to India in July of next year. It will be a modernized version of the original bike with a more modern design and a larger engine.
The new RX100 “should be an impactful package with a powerful engine and design,” Eishin Chihana had previously stated.
The Japanese producer may likewise decide on a contemporary neo-retro plan tasteful for the new Yamaha RX100 to supplement the classic energy of the first styling.
In addition, Yamaha may launch the new RX100 with a larger four-stroke engine rather than the 100cc one that was one of the iconic bikes to maintain its reputation as a fast motorcycle.
