After finishing assembly, I took the VIN form, and the rest of the paperwork to the DMV. Ten minutes after arriving, I walked out with my license plate and registration papers. A week later the title arrived in the mail.

Get your camera ready. You earn bonus points if you post copious photos of the arrival.

You bet Spud, I have a couple guys interested in my TW so if it sells, I will bring her home sooner that I expected.

Thanks for posting the photos, Keith. It appears your RX3 arrived in excellent condition. The bike looks great.

Yes it had a small hole in the box, but was well away from any part of the bike.
I removed it off the pallet as after removal of the cardboard and wood supports the pallet integrity had suffered. All is well as I might have a buyer soon for the TW. As you can see I installed the top case and I will put the windshield in place today. It came in with a half tank of fuel I topped it off, checked the oil, turned the key, depressed the start button and she purred like a kitten. let her warm up (it was 34 degrees) and took her for a spin around the parking lot. Today some how my helmet and a license plate were in my car this morning (wonder how they got there) I have to still install windshield I have not run her down the road yet as it is now 28f and I would like some wind protection. Also forgot my gloves But is is supposed to be warm tomorrow 38F I will keep you updated ps I will be ordering the aluminum luggage also.

Just so all are aware, former custom luggage maker for TW200s named Tinman Tim is working on racks and aluminum cases for his RX3 this Winter. I have seen his work. Very nice utilitarian and sturdy. There may be other aluminum luggage options come Spring that are more affordable compared to Zongshens

The red bike looks good,Keith.
I debated (with myself) over the color...ended up deciding on orange...can't change my mind now. I was wondering if anyone has had experience with the Tusk aluminum panniers from Rocky Mtn ATV? Seems very reasonably priced. https://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p...m=hard+luggage jb

I am looking forward to Tinman's inventions for the RX3. Tool tube mounts and such. Hopefully he will post some soon.

A fellow rider has the Tusk set on his KLR and loves them. They are made well for the price. If the Tourfella set was not available I would have gone with the Tusk. He paid around $500.00 for the KLR650 side bags and mounts. His are a similar size to the Tourfella side bags.
