I believe I saw an rx3 on the road today

Between Alpina and Harrison arkansas on a divided 4 lane ( US 412).......I glanced across coming toward us, the second of 2 bikes looked like it had a rx3 saddlebag. It happened so quick thats about all I saw as both us and the bikes were probably doing 65mph going opposite directions. The design on sides of saddle bags for the Rx3 is very different from other bikes I have seen. I been hoping to see one up close and have been looking. Maybe around 4 this afternoon! The first bike escaped my "eagle" eye.


Any one have an idea of how many rx3's are now in this country? john

If you really want to see one up close give CSC a call. They have an affiliate program and can connect you with some local that already has the bike. And I think there are about 200 or so in the states. Soon to change as the next shipment has arrived at CSC.

Safe to say it wasn't me, John. But if you want to come out to California I'll be happy to show you mine & answer questions.

Jay.

According to yesterdays CSC phone call the # of RX-3's in US stands at 190. Mine included when it gets shipped to me I suppose. Drag about the orange color fading.
Don't make me Regret it before I even Get It !

You'll only regret not having the extra torque of the red ones!

Gave a little thought to the RED at first.... but dont' you need to be over 60 to require Red?
Just kidding
And certainly we all must know White is a Non-color.

The color fading is the next one.
