Hi David, the RX3 is smaller and lighter so better suited for trail riding...if you mean jeep trails, not goat trails. It's still low on grunt and the suspension is never going to be up to the task if you are an aggressive off road rider. It will do 70 mph on level ground if you have it pegged. Up a hill...no way. The RX4 is going to be a better bet for highway use. Once again, the suspension will not be up to the task for aggressive off road riding. In my mind the RX4 is a good highway bike with mild off road capabilities. In automotive terms, the RX4 is like my Subaru Outback....a much better highway option than a Jeep but off road the Jeep is a better bet.
