1) He rides them ALL hard. He is TRYING to find it's weak spot. and he will
find that weak spot. Maybe tear off a front fork. Maybe split the swingarm into.
May blow the motor sky high. Who knows. But it will fail somehow. Test it till it breaks.
2) He will tell everyone to go get a used KLR650 instead of a new RX3 when it is all said and done. You just wait & see.
3) There is nothing, NOTHING else available in the USA made that one can realistically compare the RX3 to. ( as we all know here ). So he has no choice
but to compare it to what he has already ridden.

I am surprised, heck impressed even, how well it DID handle the terrain in yesterdays video!!! Not sure why he kept bogging it down. IT'S A 250, , , DOWNSHIFT DUM A**. . . . . lmao !!!!!
Man... I'm glad they didn't have test/shootouts like this when I was younger and reading bike mags. "Abuse it till it breaks" isn't a test of quality or craftsmanship, it's entertainment.
