I believe all the RX3 bikes look black from the front. The bike is officially available in red, white, blue, and orange.





Here's a link to a review of the Minsk TRX300 at Adventure Touring Motorcycle.

For right now, the closest we'll get to this bike is via SSR and their full-size dirtbike:



At least the water-cooled 250cc Zongshen engine...

A few years back, Johnny Pag offered a 250cc police motorcycle which, at the time, was a perfect tool for some police forces. It was not meant for all out pursuits, obviously, but rather for putting around quietly to run up unexpectedly on people doing illegal activities, such as when police forces use bicycles. A few police forces put them into use, which at $4k or so at the time (recession time) was a lot easier to swallow than $15k+ for pursuit and patrol bikes.

An entrepreneur could probably find a niche for the RX3 which already come made as police bikes--my guess is they are probably a lot more reliable than the Johnny Pag bikes were in 2009 or 2010.
