In today’s world full of high-tech bikes and big digital displays, Yamaha has done something special. They have brought back the iconic RX100 in a new 2025 version. This bike brings back the charm of the old model but with just the right updates to fit today’s riding needs. It’s simple, light, fun, and full of character — just like the original.
A Classic Design with Modern Touches
The new RX100 keeps the original look that made it so popular. The fuel tank has the same shape, and the racing stripes give it a sporty vibe. It’s slim, shiny, and eye-catching, just like before. But Yamaha has used stronger metal, better paint, and longer-lasting chrome to make sure it looks good for years.
The seat is now more comfortable for longer rides, the handlebars are set in a way that reduces back strain, and the footpegs are well-positioned. Whether you’re riding through the city or taking it on open roads, the bike feels natural and easy to handle.
Power That Puts a Smile on Your Face
At the heart of the RX100 is what fans love the most — its two-stroke engine. Yamaha has kept this feature and improved it with modern tech, like the Yamaha Power Valve System (YPVS). When you hit around 5,500 RPM, this system changes how the engine works and gives you a strong burst of power. It feels like riding two bikes in one – calm at low speed and wild when you twist the throttle.
The old RX100 required riders to mix oil and petrol. But not anymore. The 2025 version has an automatic oil injection system, so no more manual mixing is needed.
Light, Easy, and Fun to Ride
Weighing only 98 kg, the RX100 2025 is lighter than most modern bikes. This means it’s very easy to ride, especially in traffic. It’s quick to turn, simple to park, and feels like an extension of your body. You don’t fight with the bike – you flow with it.
The bike uses telescopic forks in front and twin shock absorbers at the back. This setup gives you a good mix of comfort and control. Whether you’re on smooth roads or bumpy ones, the RX100 handles it all with ease.
Better Mileage and Lower Pollution
Two-stroke bikes were known for being fuel-hungry and smoky. But Yamaha has worked hard to fix this. The new RX100 gives a mileage of about 35 km per litre, which is quite decent for a two-stroke engine. With a 10-litre fuel tank, you can ride over 350 kilometers before stopping to refuel.
The new engine also produces 90% less smoke than the old one. So you still get that nice two-stroke sound, but without the pollution cloud following you.
Useful Modern Features
While Yamaha kept the soul of the RX100 alive, they added some modern features for comfort and safety. The instrument panel combines an old-style analog tachometer with a digital speedometer. There’s even a gear position indicator to help new riders.
Brakes have also been upgraded. The front now has an optional disc brake, which gives better control and safer stopping. The bike also has LED lighting that looks like the old design but gives better visibility at night.
Other updates include a CDI ignition system that’s more reliable and an electrical system that can power mobile chargers. The exhaust note has been tuned to keep that classic RX100 sound, while still meeting today’s rules.
Who Will Love This Bike?
The RX100 2025 is for two types of riders. First, for those who rode the original RX100 years ago and want to relive those memories. This bike brings back all those feelings — the sound, the look, the ride.
Second, it’s for new riders who want a bike that feels real and raw, not filled with complex electronics. The RX100 doesn’t have riding modes, Bluetooth, or fancy displays. It’s just you and the bike — simple and connected.
More Than Just a Motorcycle
The RX100 is not just about reaching your destination. It’s about enjoying the ride. The sound of the engine, the way it pulls when the power kicks in, and how light it feels — these things make riding fun again. Yamaha has managed to bring back that emotion in the 2025 version.
Final Words
The Yamaha RX100 2025 is a perfect mix of the old and the new. It keeps the spirit of the original alive but adds the modern updates needed for today’s roads. If you want a bike that’s light, fun, powerful, and full of character, this could be the one for you.
In a market full of big, heavy, and feature-packed bikes, the RX100 reminds us that sometimes, simple is best.
