Uncrating a new RX3

For anyone who isn't sure they want to get one shipped to them, or anyone who's just curious, here are some pics of the process:
First, here's the box. That's me checking the paperwork.uncrate1.JPG Here's our first peek and the good stuff inside:uncrate2.JPG This is a well-packed unit...the big staples hold but come out easy.uncrate3.JPG The wooden "hoops" attach to the pallet with screws. They come off next.uncrate4.JPG Here are the keys, zip-tied to the handlebars:uncrate5.JPG |

Next up, more fun in the parking lot!
The crate features a useful front wheel chock arrangement...knock the board off the front and the bike just rolls forward and off the pallet:uncrate6.JPG Then, the preflight check: oil, coolant, brake fluid, chain adjustment, tire pressure, add fuel...uncrate6.1.JPG Final checks and put on the gear...uncrate7.JPG Annnd...ENJOY!uncrate8.JPG |
Thanks for posting the great photos. :) CSC does an excellent job assembling, and packaging the RX3 for transport. :tup:

I haven't uncrated a new machine for a few years; I miss that experience.
Nice bike! Thanks for the pics. |
Congrats Mckayprod! And ditto on the thanks for posting the photos. I think CSC has really done a great job with making the bike almost ride-ready as soon as you break down the shipping container. Safe travels and let us know your thoughts on the bike!

Thanks for the kind words. I know I lost a little sleep worrying about the uncrate/setup process and wanted to help anyone else in that frame of mind.
This bike is a lot of fun so far; I expect I'll have more good (and bad) to say as I break it in...only 87 miles on it now. |
Here are pics from my uncrating last night in Ohio. I'm th first RX3 in the Buckeye State!

Nice pictures. Unboxing must feel like Christmas!
I like the blue color too. Cheers! |
mckayprod, Wow, congrat's and "Cool Beans" for you :yay:. You folks are lucky, buy a new bike and get free wood to recycle and make some cool tables or work bench with. :tup:

Congratulations, and welcome to The Cult of The Zong. :tup:
CSC certainly does a good job packing those motorcycles for shipping. :) The Shinko tires good look. :tup: |
Nice blue bike...I'm kind of partial. Congrats!
|
That photo sequence made my day.
|
Uncrating my bike was awesome. Wish I had taken pictures!
|
I'd love to get one of those! My finances, however, say no right now. . . :(
|
Nice looking bike, Danimal! And way to go on the factory options out-of-the-box.
