Overview[edit]
The RX-135 was released around 1981. RX-135 could be bought until 2009. There altogether were six generations of the bike sold in Indonesia.
History in Indonesia[edit]
In Indonesia the RX-135, initially named the RX-K, was produced from 1981 to 1982. The new 1983 model, which had a refreshed cubical tank design and modern seat model, was released as the RX-King Cobra. The second generation RX-King Master came out in 1995. The design of the Yamaha's RX-King remained unchanged until 2002 when the model was updated, with new front and rear lights and a new meter.
A requirement of the Euro 3 regulations halted production. The late model of the RX-King in Indonesia used a catalytic converter as part of the exhaust, which allowed it to pass Euro 2 regulations.
