sorry guys. i asked him, he said its 4 speed. must appreciate you guys, just by seeing the pics you got it figured. thanks again. one thing i wanted to inquire is did the 4 speed rx 135 come with the cdi kit. if not how can one get it fixed? and what are the advantages of using cdi?

all RXs use CDI. what ajaybiz was talking about i think is the RD dreams CDI kit made by ron chinoy which is a CDI controlled by a microprocessor for more precise ignition. i believe it makes a HUGE difference to the running of the bike - more power, more mileage AND less wear and tear on the engine.

what will be the approximate cost of converting the 4 speed rx to 5 speed? and what can be done to upjet the bike?how much will it affect the mileage and topspeed?

5 speed bore barell gearbox clutchbell, if possible even 5 speed engine casing. since you would have a 2 bhp increase the mileage will come down
topspeed ya there will be a lot of improvement but only if it is tweaked and tuned properly.

Call me on saturday or sunday will try to get a 5 speed block and piston for you, RDD CDI login to the rddreams website or contact torqu3e on that site and the CDI would be with you will check if we have a spare one. i have one on my RX100 and i have felt the difference.

pulsarmaniac · 11th October 2008, 22:19

you dont need a paint job anyways. the paint is already looking great really love the rectangular console good that you removed the silver metal cover over the silencer it looks better without it for sure

Five Speed Mick · 20th October 2008, 02:23

Hey Guys please help me!!! is there any grading of stock block and piston kits?? secondly is it possible to get a rpm gauge that would be electrical??? i believe most of the bikes have them electrical rather than mechanical......... cheers............

SunnyBoi · 20th October 2008, 12:35

Most people say a bore with E1 performs the best, but I dont believe in it. I just look at all the ports, pick the one with the least flaws.

Get a working shogun tacho. Its electrical. 4 strokes tachs will work but will show double readings.

Five Speed Mick · 24th October 2008, 18:13

Thanks Sunnyboi, that's what i was wondering, the stock bore for five speed that i bought has E2 molded on the cylinder but guess unfortunately there is no way to know about it before buying as the dealers dont open packages before you buy one.... well the shogun techo sounds quite an option but getting a new gauge is a problem,,, by the way was RXZ techo mechanical or electrical?
