The RX name has been resurrected but with a new 4-stroke commuter from the Japanese manufacturer and not a sporty offering. The Yamaha Saluto RX is a 110cc utilitarian motorcycle, in the company's words, which will cater to the youth living in India's rural areas. It also boasts the first 110cc BS4 engine from the manufacturer. Speaking of which, the BlueCore motor makes 7.5PS/8.5Nm and is paired to a 4-speed gearbox. Yamaha claims that it is tuned more for rideability and at the same time will deliver 82kmpl. A claim which we will verify in the road test. The rest of the details are in the video below.
