Ordered my first motorcycle on Wednesday after taking the MSF class over the previous weekend. Orange RX-3. Thank you to everyone who participates in this thread. It's been a great learning experience to read through it. Looking forward to participating myself once I have something to ask or share.

Welcome; we are glad you joined us.
You were very wise to take the MSF rider course; that is some of the best money you will ever spend. Congratulations on ordering your new orange RX3, and welcome to The Cult of The Zong. Incidentally, I will soon own two, orange Zongshen motorcycles. I went for a ride Thursday on my Zongshen ZS200GY-2, which now has recorded over 68,000 miles on the odometer. Zongshen builds excellent engines and very good motorcycles.

Man those are some crazy nice photos. I don't have many views like that here in Florida.

Thank you. The winters are long, but Idaho is a beautiful place to ride.
The RX3 bikes will soon arrive to more owners, but it's always nice to see a new video. Here is a nice long video of a Honley Venturer 250 riding in its native habitat.

first new owners
Joe...your killing us all by posting pics of the first new owners. Those that don't have the option to pick up our bikes are joansin' ...aaahhh , but it's obvious that your expediting deliveries, because we all know your not open on the weekends, but your staying open to get the bikes out to their new respective owners... you rock!

I hope these new owners shown on the CSC blog are being steered here to chinariders. I do believe the RX3 needs its own forum now, just to keep up with all the goings on.

I actually meant that this thread has gotten so long that it should be put in its own section so that it does not have to compete with the other dual-sport/enduro threads. People like me who are still considering one of these bikes could keep discussing our old bikes AND keep up with the discussions of the RX3.

I agree, culcune. An RX3-specific chinariders subforum of some kind would be a good thing
With the buzz that this bike is going to make, I think there is more than enough room for multiple forums. Oh, and hello from Cali, everyone |

More isn't automatically better. One forum is enough. Keep it simple. Way too much road kill on the information superhighway as it is. Just my worthless opinion.
