OK, probably best if you bring the tool and mail it to me from somewhere in the US. How do you want me to pay for it? Send me a PM so we can work this out.

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on an RX-4. I had an RX-3 and enjoyed it. The CSC website says the 80/20 tires will work on the aluminum rims. Would this work for gravel roads and easy dirt? I really like the tubeless tire idea.

Finally We Get Informative Post
After waiting for weeks, I was finally able to get and read some very informative information regarding the 2020 RX4.
Working_ZS wrote a very detailed and glowing description of the RX4. And he wasn’t afraid to mention a few short comings of the bike. And from his description it sounds as if the RX4’s quality and construction is approaching the industry’s standards. A big improvement over the RX3! I also like his attached photos. I may have to visit Azusa so that I can test ride the RX4. And I’ll be watching this Forum for more detailed postings on the RX4. ZS, thanks for your information. PCG |

Good Looking Bike
I really like the looks of the RX4 motorcycle, and the size, horsepower, and torque are good too. But I don’t like the weight of this off road motorcycle.
What do you think the overall weight of this bike would be if the luggage, luggage racks and the crash bars were removed? Also do you know if the bike could be purchased without the luggage, luggage racks and crash bars? It would serve my use better without the extra accessories and the lighter weight for my cross country riding. There is a lot of interesting, fun and exciting territory nearby for my travels. I’ll have to check in with CSC and see what they can answer or do? PCG |

You can get the RX4 without any luggage, but the crash bars are part of the base package. So you would have to remove them yourself, if you feel that you don't need them. I can vouch for their effectiveness when it comes to dropping the bike, however, and would recommend retaining them. They come in handy for other things as well, such as auxiliary light mounting; and as leg perches, that let you rest you legs on them for stretching and changing up position during long rides. |

It gives more protection than the RX3 in the full up position. I have not tried the full down position yet, although I think it is possible that it could be quieter, due to your helmet hitting cleaner, less turbulent airflow. But I don't know this for sure. With the stock seat and the wind screen full up, I have just a bit of the slipstream hitting the top of my helmet. I'm 5'9" and have a 29" inseam, so tall in the torso, if that helps you any. Wind protection overall, by both the wind screen and front cowling, is good.

Owners and Riders of CSC RX4
Single cylinder motorcycle vibrations:
At what engine rpms and highway speeds does the single cylinder engine of the RX4 create hard vibrations that make the rear view mirrors vibrate so much that the rider can not see much behind. My BMW G310GS has this problem when I’m riding at certain speeds. I want to know if you can cruise at WHAT SPEED on the highways and still be able to view traffic in the bikes rear view mirrors. I’m hoping that if you’re cruising at 60 mph in 5th or 6th gear the mirror images are not vibrating and ruining the rear view. Please explain in detail how to avoid rear view mirror blurring. Thanks, PCG |

Just add some bar end weights/fill the bars with lead shot, it will dampen the frequency that they vibrate at.

Center-stand for the rx4
When I do oil drain and filter change I like to have my bike standing straight up. With the very short side stand on the RX4 it’s difficult to reach oil change parts, get a complete oil drain and clean things up. I’ve been looking for a center stand for the RX4 but couldn’t find one, and I can’t find any threaded bolt holes on both sides of the swingarm for adding spools for a trackstand supports.
I also like my bike to be steadily supported upright while adding or removing parts, during valve adjusting, modifications and checking alignments. Without a center stand, a longer/taller side stand, or a well connected/supportive trackstand the RX4 bike is too unstable doing major work. What’s your suggestions? PCG |

I've never noticed a vibration problem at any speed, so I don't have any detail for you. It's just not bad enough that I ever even noticed it at any speed.

RX4 Tall Seat Set
Have any of you owners of the 2020 RX4 purchased, borrowed, or tried out the RX4 tall black seat set? The seat height of the oem RX3/RX4 seat set is 31.9”. The seat height of the TALL SEAT is 33.5”. Can you riders reach the ground easily when sitting on your RX4 with the TALL SEAT installed? What is the rider’s height necessary to reach the ground safely while sitting on the TALL SEAT.
I’m tall and hoping the TALL SEAT will give me more leg room, instead of trying to find foot peg lower adapters. Also when lowering the foot pegs you reduce cornering clearance. PCG |
