"For 2016, the RX3 will have gold anodized forks (not shown in the above photos), new graphics (not shown in the above photos), adjustable forks (they’ll be adjustable for damping), new satin finish handlebars (not shown in the above photos), and bar end weights (not shown in the above photos)."

Also, the body panel behind the CSC logo is now painted to match the tank.

But this is a 2016 rx3 right ? Just checking. Those look like gold forks to me?

I recently discovered blue is as fast as orange, so I am currently repainting my RX3. I did paint the forward panel in the tank shroud, as well as the panniers. I am currently waiting a few days for the paint on the fuel tank to cure fully, at which point I will spray it with fuel/UV resistant, SprayMax 2K Clear Coat. Here is a photoshop approximation of the color scheme I selected.



I recently painted my Zongshen ZS200GY-2 the same blue color. Here is a photo of my other Zongshen bike, showing the actual color.

P.S. In case you are wondering, I recently transplanted a Yamaha engine into the dual sport Zong.

I think I am going to do the same. I really like the painted ones.

When you get a moment, please check on your sales order as it seems that bikes are shipping a bit out of order. I know mine may be late due to my request to wait for the new bars to be installed prior to shipping.
