How about this one from the August 2015 issue of Motorcyclist magazine?

That's the review I was seeking.

Thank you.

I am looking for a review of the RX3 published by a printed magazine, which also has an online website. I think the review was published by Motorcyclist magazine. I searched the local magazine rack, but I couldn't find the magazine. I did find the online website, but they only post older reviews, and the new review was not available at that time.

The review you asked for a while back is finally online.

And don't forget the 4.2 gal gas tank.............................priceless, rj

Thanks for sharing. This is the second review I've read that mentions the ignition and luggage use the same key, but mine doesn't. Not complaining, just observation.

A few weeks ago there was a new magazine review of the RX3. Can someone tell me the name of the magazine, and if the review has finally been posted online?

Good question. It's not even on the "Press" page at the CSC site.

detours · 09-15-2015, 01:14 AM

They gave it a 6/10, which I think is really good, considering the Triumph Tiger 800 on the next page only got 7/10.

Did you purchase that magazine, and scan the review, or did you find the review online?

detours · 09-15-2015, 10:41 AM

I subscribe, so I just scanned it. I looked online but couldn't find it. Is it legible enough? I have a higher pixel original scan.

I managed to read it, but I would truly enjoy a higher pixel scan.

Here's a link to the original file on my Google Drive. Let me know if the link doesn't work.
