Yamaha Crux is an entry level 106CC first launched in 2006. Since its launch, the Crux has undergone a few revamps, as late as last year. At an ex-showroom price of Rs. 32,990 in Delhi, Yamaha Crux is a pretty good value for money bike. The model comes with a 4 stroke single cylinder engine that delivers a max power of 7.6 PS and 7.5 Nm torque. As this is an entry level bike, you cannot expect the high end features that are available on other bikes that are in the 125+CC range. Some features on the bike include adjustable shock absorbers, multi-reflector headlights and a 130 diameter drum brake.
Official Yamaha Crux Mileage
Yamaha Crux comes with a 11 liter fuel tank. For an entry level motorcycle, mileage is extremely crucial and if what the company claims is true, you have one really amazing bike here. According to Yamaha, the Crux delivers 91 kmpl fuel economy under standard test conditions. Do note that real world riding conditions are many times different from the standard test conditions. So check out what other people who have tested the bike have to say below before coming to a conclusion.

Gaadi, the popular online car store reports in its report that the mileage under standard conditions is 75.47 kmpl (as claimed by Yamaha, but it is not clear how this is different from the 91 kmpl we have seen reported from elsewhere).

excellent.. love u yamaha
I have purchased this wonderful bike by 2005 when its launched newly till date its delivering more than I expect. They have assured me a milege of 70 Km/Ltr and after 8 years its still giving me 63-65 Km/Ltr and the performance is so Good. Maintenance cost is very less when compared with other Honda, TVS bikes. I used to service every 3000 Kms.
The Clutch plate issues its mainly caused becoz of driving if you take your hands off from the clutch after Gear down or up the plates will last long. I am marketing person used to drive 60-75 kms per day tilldate the bike didn’t give me any trouble at all. The bike becomes one of my family member now and I just love this bike. But its really disappointed that Yamaha stopped these bikes production at 2006 and selling only Crux which has more engine noise.
Overall its a very good bike and yamaha should relaunch this bike. At last, Everything depends upon the rider if you ride 60 Km as a top speed this bike will Last long and gives you more pleasure & satisfaction than any other bikes in this segment.
i have purchased last august since it is giving excellent mileage to me what i expected more than that. but still i am not happy about the including free service and paid service. 7th service i went the service manager told me that he i had changed the oil but nothing changes to me simply he charged me extra money this is second time time that i am getting worst service from the showrooms. even i sages ted to my friends buy a bike in same showrooms but now i will not sagest anymore. really they are cheaters arjun motors
2002 old model city 60 km per/liter 50kmspeed
I purchased the Yamaha Crux 2013 model. It is giving a low milage of 50/55 per liter and there is a chain problem as well
YAMAHA CRUX has carburetor overflow problem and because of that there is fuel leakage & loss of fuel.
