Taking the RX3 out for a full-on Dual Sport ride

fjmartin · 11-13-2016, 02:34 PM

I headed out Friday morning in the motorhome pulling the motorcycle out to Tahuya ORV Park in Tahuya, WA for a dual sport meet-up with PNW Dual Sport. Friday I rode a bit of the trails to see if this noob could handle it. I could and so could my RX3. Here is a video of the ride with the group on Saturday:

From one mud puddle to the next.

You're a lot braver than I....

your bike wasn't the only one that said adventure on the side.

I can't do utube so sorry if it's shown. Could you show how you transport the bike with the motorhome?

I purchased a Stinger Trailer from: http://www.stingertrailer.com/
It's a great trailer for me for the following reasons:
1) Low to the ground so easy to load the bike by either pushing it on or sitting on it and riding it on.
2) Rated for sustained 70MPH driving.
3) It has running boards the entire length so easy to drive on and get the feet down.
4) I has a Condor wheel chock so it holds the bike in place, standing while I strap it down.
5) Finally, it folds!!! So folded it's like 54" x 54" in size so don't need much space to store it.
Here are some pictures:
