And DMV employees that gave it to them will be disciplined - which I feel bad about. And, I have been told that if I was to ride my bike up to the DMV location for inspection, that DMV has the right to impound it - must be trailered. My temporary registration I received yesterday was revoked today for this reason (refund pending).

So if you are a CT RX3 owner, please avoid the time and frustration I have gone through and follow the process above for the best results in getting a tag for your bike.

Wow... not sure why I'm surprised that DMVs across the county don't seem to talk to one another. These are, after all, government offices. And I'm really sorry to hear of the trouble you've had to go through to get your RX3 registered. But I applaud your advisory as it would truly stink to have your brand new RX3 impounded because it was ridden to the DMV rather than trailered. That's an incredibly valuable notice to provide.
Thanks for posting the advisory warning. Once they are advised of this matter, I'm sure CSC will work to get Zongshen the status of recognized manufacturer in Connecticut.
