3. Yamaha RX 100

3. Yamaha RX 100: When launched in India in 1985, it was Yamaha’s way of overcoming the sloppy sales of the Yamaha RD350 and the answer to the Ind-Suzuki’s (as it was called back then) AX-100 and the Hero Honda CD100. It got everyone’s attention simply because of the way it accelerated and the power it produced- a whopping 11 horsepower at a moon-touching 8500 RPM, that too in 1985!
