New competition for RX3 in the U.S.A.

Did you see the new 2018 Suzuki GSX250R that Suzuki is releasing for sale in the United States? It's a liquid cooled parallel twin with 8 valves. No mention of horsepower or torque figures. Selling price is suppose to be $4,499.00.
Top speed appears to be around 85 to 90 mph.
The pricing is approaching the affordable selling price of the CSC RX3. I hope CSC doesn't raise the MSRP of the RX3, it could cut into their sales.
It appears that the smaller displacement, smaller size and less expensive motorcycle market in the U.S.A. is expanding. I guess everybody doesn't need a 1000cc 120 horsepower commuting motorcycle!
It'll will be interesting, and fun, watching what other bikes enter the smaller size motorcycle market.
Stay tuned!
