Yamaha Saluto Rx 125
The Yamaha Saluto Rx 125 has a top speed of ~95 km/h (estimated), produces ~8.2 hp and weighs ~111 kg. Motoryk rates it 6.5/10.
Yamaha Saluto RX 125 została wprowadzona w Indiach około 2016 roku jako zaktualizowany wariant Saluto 125, wyposażony w hamulec bębnowy na obu kołach i skierowany do osób dbających o budżet dojeżdżających do pracy na rynkach wiejskich i półmiejskich. Został zbudowany na reputacji Yamaha w zakresie oszczędności paliwa i niezawodności w segmencie podmiejskich o pojemności 125 cm3, rywalizując z motocyklami klasy podstawowej Hondy i Hero. Model wyróżniał się połączeniem wskazówek stylizacji retro z praktyczną codzienną użytecznością, chociaż ostatecznie został wycofany, gdy Yamaha przeniosła się na bardziej nowoczesne platformy dla podmiejskich.

Proven Engine Reliability
The Saluto RX uses a 125cc air-cooled single-cylinder engine derived from Yamaha's well-tested platform, known for long service life with proper maintenance. Regular oil changes every 3,000 km significantly extend engine longevity.
Watch Carburetor Clogging
A common issue reported by owners is carburetor clogging, especially when the bike sits unused for extended periods, leading to rough idling or hard starting. Periodic carburetor cleaning and using quality fuel can prevent this problem.
Decent Resale Retention
The Yamaha badge and fuel efficiency of around 55-60 km/l help the Saluto RX hold reasonably good resale value in the budget commuter segment. Well-maintained examples typically retain 60-70% of value after two years.

Recenzja używanego kupującego
"Solid urban commuter, but don't dare dream beyond city limits."
$800-$1,400 usedThe Saluto RX 125 is Yamaha's budget commuter dressed up with a retro-ish face, and honestly it delivers exactly what it promises — nothing more. The 125cc air-cooled single is bulletproof if maintained, sipping fuel at genuinely impressive rates and starting first-kick even after weeks sitting idle. For urban grinding through stop-start traffic, it's hard to fault the ergonomics or the light, flickable chassis. Here's the honest part though — this thing has zero highway ambition. Anything above 80kmh and the engine is screaming at you, vibrating through the bars and footpegs like it's personally offended. The brakes are drum both ends on most variants, which feels about as confidence-inspiring as wet cardboard. Check for worn brake shoes and corroded cables before buying used — owners routinely neglect both. For used examples, inspect the carburetor carefully. They gunk up badly with ethanol-blend fuels, and a sloppy idle usually means a full carb clean is needed. Budget for that. The frame and electrics are surprisingly robust for the price bracket.
