As 'sexy' as the new CSC bikes are, I would think the RX4 is a better all around bike than either of the two new ones.

One other comment with regard to RX4 information... although the ADVRider.com is another great outlet for information, and it does have some RX4 info, it is limited to only 1 thread with 64 pages.. I think this site is a much better platform for posting reviews, information, modifications, etc. as they would be lost in the mix on the other site.

I agree about the RX4 being better all around, however I think that the thing with the 400 twins is that they are designed to appeal to someone not wanting a tall, heavy do all ADV; instead, they're for someone who just wants something unique to ride around town on, or attend a bike night on, while not riding the same thing as everyone else. Which I think these both fit the bill on nicely, especially the SG400, since currently there is no small displacement parallel twin cafe racer style bike available from anyone, apart from CSC and Zongshen. The Haylon has competition in the Kawasaki Z400, but it undercuts it on price while still being better equipped, having dual front disc brakes to the Z400's single rotor. Either way, it's hard to go wrong with one or the other of these CSC 400 cc bikes if you know that you do not want an ADV, and/or you need more than the 26" seat height and 16 HP of the SG250.

I'd like the cost to be less, but after six years I think that CSC and Zongshen have established the fact that their bikes are on par, or better, with what the Europeans and Japanese are releasing at slightly higher price points, and are worth what is being asked for them.

Just checked with CSC re: paperwork and she said it will send out as soon as the bike is picked up.. kinda bummed to find that it hasnt been picked up yet as i had assumed it was since the haulbikes invoice stated a delivery of 4/27.. Oh well. More waiting to go..
She mentioned that there are 12 RX4's pending pickup.. sounds like they are selling pretty well

Not too surprised, as it is the start of riding season; everyone and their brother is buying a bike and having it shipped. Don't worry, once it starts moving, it will move quickly.

I'm also not surprised by the sales volume at CSC. They've got great product and a great reputation for supporting their customers, which makes them the go-to choice for a lot of people who are interested in a Chinese motorcycle. I've bought four so far, and I have no complaints whatsoever.

No. I'm guessing late June.

Having bought a TT250, RX3 and RX4 from CSC I'll venture to speculate a bit. The first two bikes were significantly smaller than the RX4. They were shipped in CSC built crates and had a cardboard outer cover and could be moved around with a forklift or pallet jack. In fact, delivery to my house was with a lift gate and pallet jack. The RX4 was delivered by Haulbikes in a custom built motorcycle hauler trailer. When the 4 rolled off the trailer it was ready to go. I could have ridden it home.

All this means Haulbikes is a motorcycle specific shipping service. They will have lots of bikes from either private sellers, dealers, or a distributor like CSC. Also, Haulbikes has fewer trucks making multiple stops along the way. That translates into slower delivery, particularly to the East Coast. Being a niche shipper I think Haulbikes has less chance of damage in transit. You also avoid uncrating and then figuring out what to do with the debris. It just makes delivery take longer. Think of this as waiting for Santa...it's worth the wait, painful as that may be.
