indeed very interesting. I am curious though how high up in the price file they will be. With the Chinese RX3 nearing $3500, and a Honda CB300F at $3900, I would place a fair guess these bikes would land in the "$4995" price point. A pricing tier that would be in a segment all their own, yes, but still out of reach for many folks.
And for those that it is not out of reach for, most of them would pay the extra $1000 to go to a CB500X when the year end clearance sales start. LOL

Yes, I reported this rumor in the Zongshen RX3 Megathread.

More choice is good.

Wow. The under 400cc class is getting as crowded at the middleweight class. Strange trend, as the price of petro continues to decline. I haven't seen this many small displacement bikes offered since the 1970s when we endured the 55 mph national speed limit.
