TIDY LOOKER, TRUSTED ENGINEERING.

All Yamaha motorcycles in India share a high level of quality and a fine attention to detail and the Crux S doesn't disappoint. The neatly styled bike is a smart looker. Striking a familiar stance, the old Crux has simply been given a cosmetic makeover. The big change is improved decals flowing from head to tail, with little else tampered with.
Yamaha has adopted a conservative approach which can be seen from the uncomplicated, adequate round headlamp and the absence of the front fairings seen on the Crux R.
Instrumentation comes courtesy the older Crux, a fuel gauge remaining absent. While the dials provide a speedometer on the left, warning lights for turn signals, high beam and neutral on the right. Outdated switchgear is a sore point while grips and levers are fine equipment as are a conventional yet practical set of oval mirrors.
The smartly-contoured fuel tank from the earlier Crux now bears Yamaha's distinctive tuning fork logo. The tank flows admirably into the side panels and the rear has an attractive tailpiece topped with a metal grabhandle.
Paint and fit and finish are to a high order and the Crux S has a plethora of gold-finished bolt heads and a few other similar metal parts that help give it that slightly sophisticated look.
