I'm using my RX3 for everything under 65mph which is basically everything but the highway here in NY.

I'm honestly looking at selling my Stelvio and getting a more dedicated street bike at this point for twisty roads. I'm even thinking KTM Duke 390 or 690 as I'm really realizing how much nicer a lighter bike is. I went through a "boiling the frog" process of slightly heavier bikes until I realized just how heavy a 600 lb ADV bike is with the contrast between Stelvio and RX3.
I traded my BMW F800GT for a 390 Duke last week. You won't be disappointed.
