A few days ago and also until right now, the topic of new Vixion 150 motorcycle from Yamaha is being hotly discussed, after along long times never getting a significant changes, Yamaha Indonesia finally gives many ultimately changes and total new appearance to the new Vixion, not only just the color and new tagline changes, but it gives a lot of Yamaha Vixion plus points including some parts.

Almost touching the word "perfect", I said like that because this motorcycle now appear more modern and looks more elegant, deficiencies have been repaired. There are many things that I love from the New Vixion, including the use of larger tires, followed by a wider wheels, rear disc brake, new ignition position, new rear brake lights, and also completed with new gas tank. All of that makes the new Vixion 150 looks perfect, but there is new thing from new gen of Vixion that I don't like, that is the design of new headlmap which it look less than sporty looks.

Lets look closer, all parts of new Vixion been perfect, but the headlights look less than sporty style, Yamaha should better give a sharper headlights like the earlier Vixion headlight/ 2nd gen of Vixion (the first generation Vixion using the round headlights). Oh yeah I have to tell you that Yamaha also need to give a new engine cover to make this bike perfect.

That's all, the good thing from the all new 2013 Vixion are :

New Features :

- New rear disc brake
- New large tires
- New digital display
- New Fuel-Tank design
- New Ignition position
- New Headlamp
- New muffler
- New prices, etc.

Good works !! congratulation for the Yamaha, we hope the next Vixion will available with new sharp headlamp and also new engine cover, have a nice day.

2012 Yamaha Exciter - R & RC Editions

After successfully with the previous model of Yamaha Exciter type, Yamaha now presented the new 2012 Yamaha Exciter series, 2012 Yamaha Exciter R and also 2012 Yamaha Exciter RC edition, both of Yamaha Exciter 2012 series looks almost the same and I can't found many different things, but you can see that the colors scheme and decals of the bikes are different. Yamaha motorcycles not only selling this bike in one place, Yamaha Exciter also already in many country such as in Thailand with Yamaha Spark 135 named, also Yamaha Jupiter MX in Indonesia, all bikes uses the same specs but the colors schemes are different. Today let see the new looks of Yamaha Exciter 2012 edition, it has comes from Yamaha Vietnam official website.



2012 Yamaha Exciter R & RC edition has been born with the same engine specs, almost 135cc of engine capacity (134.4cc actually), 4-stroke, SOCH, 4-valve, and single cylinder engine, but the Exciter RC edition has better performance with 9.21kW (12.5PS) @8500 rpm while the Exciter R produces 8.9kW (12.1PS) @8500 rpm, not so different but RC series is better.



If we try to compare the Yamaha Exciter with Jupiter MX (for Indonesia market place), Jupiter MX reportedly already with manual clutch edition, so I thing the 2012 Yamaha Exciter RC edition uses the manual clutch edition while the Exciter R uses the automatic clutch, correct Me if I was wrong. The RC edition comes with better performance, but the specs of this bike is almost 100% same, so I thing the manual clutch on the Exciter RC is the main features for boost Exciter performance.

2012 Yamaha Exciter R & RC Prices :
Exciter R : 40.000.000 (VNĐ)
Exciter RC : 37.000.000 (VNĐ)
