Looking at the RX3S MAX, it does not look like Zongshen has altered the ergonomics any, so I doubt that CSC would be interested in importing it into the US; it seems to be intended for smaller stature riders found in Asia.

The RX850 on the other hand, would fill out the range and give CSC something to compete with the likes of the Versys 650, VStrom 650, and the Yamaha Tracers - both the 700 (not currently in the US) and the 900. The pricing would be critical, since it would be necessary to undercut the Japanese significantly to induce people to give it a go, instead of sticking with the known quantities in the mentioned bikes. According to an Indonesian motorcycle site, the 850cc engine is supposed to be good for 94 HP, versus the 650cc version of this engine in the RX6, which is outputting 70 HP

I believe it's a "400cc class" engine; the same way that the TT250 is considered a "250", even though the actual engine displacement is 229cc. The RX3S Max is most likely using the same 378cc TC380 paralllel twin engine that the normal RX3S and SG400 have in them.

I guess I'm behind on the info. Having owned two RX3's, I figured that designation would be a 250.

A Genuine 400 It Seems

I stand corrected - it looks like Zongshen has bored out the TC380 from 378cc to 401cc, according to this video:

Zongshen should now work on reducing weight of the bikes to comes in competition with other big brands .. if this Rx3ma comes in weight around 185-195 kg weight it old be ore responsive and buyers will attract as well

Cyclone RX3S is already sold in Poland as Junak RX401. Price is 23.000PLN or 25.000PLN (with additional luggage bags). To be honest that is a quite good deal.
