I live in Mauritius. My father just bought the Yamaha Crux. I am very pleased with the build quality and the overall performance of the bike. My father bought it secretly, eventually a surprise for us. It’s at Rs48,000 (Mauritian Rupees) on road here, around Rs86,000 (Indian Rupees).

The bike is very comfortable. Long seat, good driving posture, smooth ride, flawless gear change. The mileage is for the time being unknown to me, even if most sites suggest it to be 60-70 km/L.

The one thing I have encountered is that the engine seems to have a problem with cold starts. For the first few kilometres after start, the engine tends to shut down at stops if you do not keep throttling at neutral. Maybe the engine is still new and needs to run in some more kms. Just guessing.

The look is indeed retro but I like the bike, it’s a Yamaha. The speed is actually lower than other conventional bikes. My brother did tinker with the carburetor one day, it gave the bike incredible boost. But, eventually, he put it to its original setting. I do not mind going 60-70 km/h, feels nice and comfortable.

In a nutshell, it’s a very comfortable and smooth bike. Go for it guys.

I Think I am replying late however I am Interseted to reply this query.. The Quality and Reliability on Crux is much higher than CD Dawn. The Engine is too good than any 100 CC Bike in the Market. The Headlight produces much better result than Halogen Bulb of CD Dawn on actual Road Conditions. I have experience to ride both the vehicle but I always suggest o go for a YAMAHA Crux, because of 1.Running Cost is too Low. 2. The Reliability is High 3. Milage is tooooooo Good in the Segment. 4. Body is very Strong and the SEAT is also very Good. 5. Smooth in Higher speed as well. 6. If fall down will not cost a lot to repair, as having very less fibe fittings..

Yes!! the esale value is not very high but not very low as well. But if we calculate then we purchase something to realise its result not to calculate the resale value from the begining!!!

HOE I may have clreared the Query.. Feel free to drop me a mail is I can help you urther..at.

What is review of Yamaha YBR 110

I reside in maraimalai nagar. Many mechanics in Chennai are morons they don’t even know the difference between bajaj quality and honda quality. No good mechanic will ever dis-recommend crux. CD-Dawn is 2k lower then crux. Crux is a bit small then dawn. Both bikes vibrates at above 65kmph as reported by users. Both bikes has good quality and reliability but crux has more plus in this. The new cd-dawn is more impressive and has better pickup then crux, it has the same engine spec as of the passion pro. Comfort level is same in both bikes. To my understanding crux might give you a 5km lower mileage then dawn but i am not sure about this but a crux owner said his new bike is giving 70-75kmpl.

Buy crux if you like quality, reliability, low maintenance, want to stand out of the crowd, don’t worry about resale value and a bit less mileage and most important if you like and believe in yamaha.

By Dawn if you are typical ordinary man who likes quality, reliability, mileage, less maintenance and resale value. The new dawn’s are better then crux in performance.

I need advice to help me choose between the crux and cd dawn. I reside in chennai and hardly see any crux on the road. The mechanics also advice against them though I don’t understand why. Sadly, even the yamaha showrooms seem disinterested in selling this bike as they only have the FZ series for test ride. They don’t even bother to take your number and follow up. For these reasons, I am inclined more towards the DAWN.
As far as I can see – For CRUX – more mileage (than dawn), 106 cc, good quality, simple design, longer and flat seat. Against – Very thin front tyre, no halogen bulb, poor resale, lack of knowledge amongst roadside mechanics.
For DAWN – Good quality, proven vehicle, better resale, better tyres and halogen bulb, can be serviced lcoally Against – Very old technology, less comfortable to ride than crux (this is my perception…please correct me if I am wrong).

Yamaha crux, i haven’t rode it yet. but i believe it would be near like rx 100, which is very famous in my place. And also could be my favourite bike shape, only if it was little bit bigger, longer, taller and have a little bigger heart/engine. if up grated it my look like harley, only in a lower price. I guess yamaha may come up to a better idea one day. Till than, its really a small nice looking bike. And i like it. Thumps up.
