I respectfully disagree. Each market gets a RX3 variant based on what the importer and Zongshen have agreed to build for that market. It's important to note that a bike is from CSC because that...

My 2016 has tapered bars. The bar is much fatter in the area where it is clamped to the triple tree. The taper is just outboard of the clamp area so it might appear that the bar is a uniform...

Mid February leads one to work on garage projects because it's just too miserable to ride. This time I'm getting ready to take my Zong to Daytona Beach, Florida. Given the fact that I'm camping...

The '16 and later RX3's already have zerk fittings installed for the swingarm bearings. It might be worthwhile to install some on the shock linkage but those are pretty easy to access so I have not...

just a little hot oil

As an experiment, a good way to see how much of a mess a couple ounces of hot oil can make......just install the exhaust valve cover upside down and ride about 60 miles. No harm done but now the...

Junaro is spot on. The chain has not stretched uniformly. I bet you have lots of sprocket wear too. The OEM chains were reported to be toast by 5K miles. I replaced mine right after I got the...

New GPS Mount

At the recent WV 'Madness' I saw that both Tim and Dan had mounted their GPS above the speedo/tach. That appeared to be a much better location than mine (just above the triple tree and bars). They...

A few of us are gathering in Marlinton, WV, 24-27 Aug. Today I installed new mirrors and gave the bike a good overall check. Had to add a bit of coolant and tighten a couple clamps. It has been so...

Thanks. A real fab shop could crank out these boxes for a reasonable price. I can't. As for the fab table, it's a 5' X 7' hunk of 1" Corten steel mounted on mobile home axle and wheels. The plate...

Rus, you should not have any problems with 60-70 watts of extra draw. I have powered a heated liner that draws that much. Just to be careful you might want to add a volt meter to your bike. On...
