WOW!!! I guess I live in the right part of the USA then, because they are selling all over the place for waaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy less than $7700 !!!!!
I looked at this very bike many months ago ( prior to buying my Vulcan 500 )
and was very impressed with ALMOST every bit of it. Except the once thing Honda SERIOUSLY screwed up on in my strong opinion, , , , the foot pegs
are set up more like a sport bike / street fighter than a dual sport. I hate, I LOATHE , , , I despise the " heel under your butt " foot peg arrangement
like what was on my CB300F.
Here is a link to where you can get a 2015 Honda CB500X for under $5500 out the door.

I have not sat on a RX3 yet, but can clearly see from photos the pegs are more like a dual sport.
IF the RX4 lands under $5k, it has my vote!
And a 450cc single "thumper" would actually be a better motor IMO because
of the gobs of low down torque. I prefer Honda's 300 over the Ninja's for this sole reason. ( that, and just that much less moving parts to cause a failure )

Looks like Zong has heard my plea!!!!!

EDIT: I totally missed the "you can ADD the luggage " part till I re read the post. LOL Still, , SURELY you can get paniers for less than $2700 off of e-bay or amazon.
