Model history

2005

The T135 debuted in 2005 for the Thailand and Indonesian markets, and then the Malaysian market in February 2006. The model was very successful in Southeast Asia especially in Thailand.^{[citation needed]}

To promote the T135, Yamaha organized a 9,000 km (5,600 mi) road tour of ASEAN countries in November 2005 through May 2006, passing through Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and the Philippines.[4]

2008

In 2008, the fuel injected version of the T135 was launched for the Thailand market (dubbed as Spark 135i), making it the second underbone motorcycle using fuel injection after the Honda's Wave 125i. There are 3 main Yamaha factories that assembled the T135. These are Indonesia, Thailand and newest is Philippines.^{[citation needed]}

2011

In 2011, the T135 was facelifted with a new body design. The transmission of the Malaysia's and Indonesia's manual clutch variant was revised to 5-speed transmission from the previous 4-speed as an upgrade.[2] Hong Leong Yamaha Malaysia produced a cut-off from the CDI which limits the motorcycle's performance for the facelifted version.

2016

In 2016, the manual clutch variant of the T135 was discontinued, as the T-150 made its debut. The automatic clutch variant is still sold.^{[citation needed]}

2019

In September 2019 the YAMAHA 135LC SE was introduced, the real successor of the Spark 135 series. Although in many countries the Exciter/ Jupiter 150-155cc is seen as the successor this is virtual an other model. The engine and all main components are the same as previous models. A better secured keylock and new bodywork and dashboard are the main changes.

2022

The 2022 model received a redesign influenced by the larger T-150 and some other major upgrades such as new digital speedometer interface, larger basket with USB port, bigger fuel tank (4.6L) and rear brake no longer uses drum-brake system and is replaced with disc brake system instead.[1]
