I have a stock rear shock, a Progressive 450 spring, and stock mirrors for a 2016 RX3 and would be happy to ship them to anyone interested for only the cost of postage. Message me if interested.

Good luck, I hope you have some takers. I tried your approach to give away parts for shipping cost only. I hated to do my final solution which was disposing of the parts by throwing away in the trash. But I just wanted to clear my garage.
Maybe your parts are in higher demand?

Hey There - long cold winter here - thought I'd make an offer of this stuff if anyone had any use for it before I pitched it. Winter is a long and hard one and we're not even through a month of it yet. Looking forward to Spring when I take the RX3 on a 2500 mile shake down ride down the MABDR and back north via rural country roads. Now that the bike is a bit more dialed in and I'm fully out of break-in at 3K, we'll see what it can do!

Both the mirrors and the Progressive 450 spring are now spoken for - only the original stock shock remains for anyone who wants it - cost of postage only.

The stock shock has now also been spoken for - glad I was able to find good homes for all these parts. May they serve their new owners well!

I have a severe spinal condition after two back surgeries and I am a lighter rider < 150 lbs. I've gone to the spring on the new 465 series Progressive shock CSC offers on their website. It is softer upfront than the 450/550 but I believe harder on the bottom of the compression cycle. I only rode it < 50 miles before the bad weather set in but it felt much better than the former spring. I'll have more feedback once I really get to test it out come better weather here in the Northeastern US.

thanks dualsport. i may give that a try when a 2nd hand one comes up for sale. I like that you say its harder on the bottom, perhaps that would help my bottoming out issues off road? i too am 150lbs kitted up and have old spine and hip injuries. i really empathize with you.

Vicky, The mirrors showed up today in great shape and are installed on my bike now. Did you go to a different set of mirrors for you bike?
Thank you so much for making them available to us, rj

So happy everything arrived safely RJ - glad they can go to good use. I didn't like the limited view of the stock mirrors and changed them out after a couple weeks of riding the RX3 with some inexpensive replacement mirrors from Amazon.com that were recommended here on this forum by another RX3 owner - a bit better view from the outside of the mirror with this change.
