Hi everyone!
I just took advantage of the CSC deal on 2016 Zong Cyclone RX3's! $3895 shipped to my door fully assembled and ready to roll. Orange was the only color left in stock, but it looks good to me.
Other bikes I was considering: Honda CRF250l Rally ABS and Kawasaki Versys-X 300 ABS. I couldn't get over the sticker shock once I started factoring in dealer fees plus accessories (bags, crash protection, etc...).
This is my first bike and I'm pretty excited to learn how to wrench on it. I would be more afraid to wrench on a $7k bike vs. a $4k bike. The only thing I feel like I had to compromise on was ABS.
Now I can get a bike, accessories AND expensive protective gear (ATGATT) for less than the price I was thinking of paying for a new Honda or Kawasaki. Feels good man! I hope I made the right choice.
No pics yet, bike will be delivered in late April when I am back home and able to receive the crate!
