According to Animesh Sharan of Hindustan Customs, the customized Yamaha RX 135 features a list of modifications and a custom silver paint scheme, which is fading out of the market these days. The customized RX 135 receives an LED headlight with a custom-made bracket, integrated LED tail lamps and indicators, an expanded 16 litres fuel tank and clip-on handlebars.

Other changes on the modified Yamaha RX 125 brat café racer include a bigger swingarm for the wider rear tire, hand-stitched tanned brown leather seat with matching handlebar grips, and custom front fender. The motorcycle comes with an LED display for the warning lights and a side-mounted number plate holder. The customizer has added a performance chamber to extract better sound from the exhaust system.

According to Hindustan Customs, the Tarak brat café racer uses the stock 132 cc, single-cylinder, two-stroke engine with air-cooling. This engine is capable of producing a maximum power of 14 bhp at 7,500 rpm along with a peak torque of 12.25 Nm at 7,000 rpm. It is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.
