Which Motorcycle Should I Ride to Patagonia?
Don't know whether anyone is interested but I took a number of photos of the ZS200 which I can post here. One thing comes to mind - most of the distributorships are used to setting up relatively simple bikes- the RX3 from the sound of it is going to be somewhat different. Any thoughts on the dealerships being able to handle a more sophisticated bike? Asked in a different way- and since I have never owned a new bike before (all 2nd hand) is it a good idea to have a shop manual and go back and check what has been done on a new bike? Most notable reason for this question - on the side trim for a really pretty 200 today that I took shots of- the trim plastic was cracked to hell. Wondering why I felt the backside and yep right where the attachment points were bolted to the frame...granted it could be either poor plastic or maybe a tech with earbuds in groovin, lack of attention and over torque. The dealership here does not inspire a lot of confidence from this and a few other things I have seen.......if I was the sales manager I wold have changed this plastic trim before putting it on the showroom floor...
