Did you tell him about the 2-year, unlimited mileage warranty?

Ryan just emailed me back 4524.95 delivered to my door with a six pack of oil filters. That's Freight prep paperwork and all...... my wallet is starting to Twitch in my pocket :-)

Just checking in, I haven't been here for a while.
Glad to see that the enthusiasm for the RX3 is still strong. Mine is over a year old now, used every day, rain or shine and still going well with no problems. Added a radiator cap with a thermometer a while back. Its quite accurate though it does take a while to show true system coolant temp. if it were possible, i think it would work quicker on the other radiator. It is possible to see whilst riding, got to lean forward a bit ( D1 SPEC THERMO RADIATOR CAP LARGE 1.1BAR ) |

Thanks for checking in, Kat. We have missed your insightful posts. I hope you won't disappear for another extended hiatus.

Honda finally responds
Honda has recognized the success of the RX3 by planning the introduction of their own 250cc ADV bike. They call it the Rally.

Good find, Wheelbender6.
Acknowledging that it's just a concept my impressions follow. Pros: I like the long flat seat. Dash indicator lights look bright. Honda dealer network support. The fork covers look effective, not like something from a Japanese comic. Cons: Passenger peg location looks to be suited for a child, not adult. Plastic bash plate. Uh,,,,, sure. Plastic bodywork over everything. (Think our RX3's take denuding to adjust the valves?) 34.7" seat height. I can cope, but many can't. Honda dealer network support, to whom you MUST also take the bike to for mandated maintenance to maintain your warranty. Price. Starting at $4,999* + Destination Charge: $320.00. Probably dealer prep as well. No guards. No luggage. Quite likely only one color. Mixed: Alloy rims. Fat Bars. No interesting blog for entertainment. Here's an update from earlier this week saying it's been shifted from concept to prototype: http://www.advpulse.com/adv-bikes/ho...lly-prototype/ It will be interesting to see how it stacks up against the RX3. |
