do you know the model of this Twin cyclender engine ?

I see the engine is not sitting in cradle and infact seems like the "stressed member of chasis which is good for a bike which is going to have a offroad use you know.

also the oil filter is naked and in front which can get damage in an adventure bike ... it seems like a "test Mule" of zongshen ...

as I havnt seen this engine on zongshen current production line..

neverthless bike is promising...

Wouldn't this be the RX5 and not a different RX3 model?

The '5' is supposed to represent Zongshen first ever twin cylinder engine. The '4' of RX4 represents the big single cylinder engine of approximately 400cc. The '3' in RX3 represents the single cylinder 250cc engine generously rounded. The '2' in RX2 represents the single cylinder 200cc engine found in Asia.

Are we assuming it's twin cylinder because it has twin exhaust pipes? A single cylinder engine can have dual exhaust values and dual exhaust pipes. My guess is this bike is actually a single cylinder twin exhaust and will be called the RX4

Well I went to the link and I didn't see a single spec posted. The article says very little and nothing proving its a dual cylinder engine. Maybe you have a different link to share.

Ironically, we had a 400cc 'adventure' bike several years ago, right here in the U.S. Heck, the Xingyue company had 4 different models--2 'adventure' bikes and 2 dual-sport models available. The problem was the engine had a fatal flaw, and Xingyue never corrected it. Pitster Pro rebranded one of the dual-sports, but pulled it from their line once the engines stopped running and couldn't be repaired.

There is another twin 500cc ADV type bike coming to the USA.
I have seen it in China as well and looks to be a decent bike and possibly better the the Zong range
