RX3's in Volcano!

Well what do you know? There I was coming back from Pine Grove on a little back country road that connects Pine Grove and Volcano....and I came up behind two bikes. They were going along kind of slowly, taking in the sights. I saw the rider on the bike in front pointing to the left toward Indian Grinding Rock State Park. Obviously they were from out of town and enjoying the beauty of what Amador County has to offer.

At first I thought they were on a Kawasaki, or Suzuki or some other adventure bike, then I thought. "No way those could be RX3's...", but the panniers looked familiar from pictures.

I followed them into the park as they parked off to the side, I pulled up next to them and asked if they were on the new RX3. They said yes and then were kind enough to offer for me to check them out....which I gladly accepted!

Needless to say the RX3 exceeded all of my expectations for fit and finish and one of the gentlemen was nice enough to allow me to mount the saddle and at 6' and 190....I was comfortable. The ergonomics were surprisingly well set-up also!

I apologize that I can't remember their names but it was very nice to run across some of our fellow China Riders way out in Volcano. Also, they were nice enough to allow me to take a pic of this VERY rare sighting so I could share it here on our site! Ride safe guys!
