I just posted a ride report of our trip up to Rollinsville and the Moffat Tunnel. Bonus pics of some spooky cabins we found up there!

"The CSC Blog reports a fellow rode his Zongshen RX3 a distance of 30,000 kilometers from China, to England. He will complete his ride in Barcelona, Spain, after traveling a distance of 20,000 miles."

That should answer any questions about the RX3 being a real "Adventure Bike".

I agree completely.

With comfort bucket seat, no less.

SpudRider · 10-27-2015, 10:05 PM

The drive belt is loose.

The rear sprocket is too small to take advantage of the one pumpkin-power engine.

SpudRider · 10-28-2015, 12:17 AM

I wonder what is the displacement of the single gourd engine?

It's a small power plant, but I bet it can peel out of the parking lot. Makes me want to do some canyon carving!

Unusual gearing set up on that "fastest Orange" with a ten tooth front and rear sprockets...

Looks like it's up on blocks. I hope the engine didn't seeds. Maybe it's just out of juice.

Who makes the center stand? I want a Cool-Whip center stand, even if it doesn't lift the rear gourd...er, wheel, off the ground.

Since we are having a Halloween motif, I thought you might enjoy the following video.

Weldangrind · 10-28-2015, 10:30 PM

That was very sexy.
