This is great news about the RX4 coming. Looks like they are addressing many of the concerns/upgrades that people had with the RX3. Looking forward to seeing how this bike fairs in daily use.

Sadly weight is the devil in the details. If a bike carries it's weight low then it can feel much lighter than it is. I think you guys here have stated that the RX3 doesn't feel as heavy as the...

I think what many of us are waiting for is that bike that has enough legs to tackle those highway miles within reason and still be competent off road. Granted we can all own a street bike, but I...

I don't focus much on top speed on bikes of this class, but the RX3S and RX4 top speeds may be more limitation to the gear and sprocket selection. The issue with the exhaust looks fine as long as...

Wow, that is a fantastic price. I probably would have bought it for that money. You look at a used one on CL and they still want retail for them.

Here is a video of the RX4 and the exhaust routing and the radiator plumbing all seem like an after thought. The exhaust is very exposed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_9ad03oVGE
