Sounds so very much like my BMW GS650 - great on hard packed surfaces.. but once it got into the deep gravel, mud, and other loose terrains, it really couldn't hang; even with Pirelli Scorpions. Honestly I think it was gearing; not enough torque; maybe much like the RX? I switched for a few miles and got on the GS800 my friend had and it was a completely different story - bigger tires as well. The 650 also has a very low center of gravity to be a 'trail bike'. The Titan DLX I've been modifying and riding is miles beyond what the 650 could manage.. Came with knobbie tires as well. Probably not as much of a tank as the GS series lol but have dumped it once already - took it well.
Man, I hate that for you though - I have been really eyeing the RX3/4 bikes for a while. But, also hearing that it can't handle the small stuff with ease; bummer.. Good to know though! That makes a big difference in my next decision.
