RX-3 CSC Cyclone Features

[@jamesmziegler]

I got mine last summer and put over 1k miles on it before putting it away for winter. What an awesome bike! Perfect for commuting or riding fire trails. Completely reliable. Gets noticed too. Everywhere I go people want to know about it.

[@theartist8634]

Can't wait for 2020 rx4 review

[@recpro7847]

Nice walk-around. I'm starting to dig this bike.

[@csc150man]

We are posting maintenance tutorials on the CSC blog now. More info on the bikes is on there almost every day.

[@ericlarson63]

I like him and his way of describing the bikes.

[@vegasjw]

Just registered my bike here in NV. I think I'm the first because they had to manually enter the info, it wasn't in the system yet. Took my first ride outside Vegas and the bike got a lot of attention at a couple scenic stops. Everyone wanted to know what it was and who sells it. They were very surprised by the amount of features for the price. Felt like I was a CSC salesman for a minute there, lol. So far I'm happy with this bike. Still trying to get through break in so I can do some real riding. Let ya know how that goes.

[@jackmaetal]

In the Philippines, the carb. version is what's gonna be available here... Kinda excited for this bike too

[@jonathangarcia9324]

Nice sports bike, hope someday I can have one 😊

[@ZoneTelevision]

I'm actually kinda digging this bike. For the money its going to hard to beat.

[@LanceChee]

very detailed video - thanks!

[@jboy2621]

Man, I heard about this bike on Cleveland Moto. It's a good looking Chinese bike. Is it the Zongshen rx-3? This and that new Royal Enfield Himalayan.

[@DanHartm]

Top video top bike. Hope this bike will come to Denmark.

[@booshwaa2]

Couple questions. Whats the seat height? Top speed? What kinda mpg does it get? What kind of warranty and customer support? Are parts gonna be hard to find and or readily available? Looks like a slick bike with alot of great features. I'm looking forward to seen how it performs long term.

[@MrBubbydoo]

Are they coming to Canada?? looks like a great bike

[@jameschaisson7747]

is the 250 enough engine???

[@67JD110]

Im on the fence about buying one. Will you guys do a 2018 model video? Im 6 ft tall so im worried about fitting the bike. Thanks!!! Stay safe

[@leandarleeshultz8683]

I would really like test one out for a long weekend.

This will be the new KLR. (Low budget entry level adventure bike) KLR made somewhere in Thailand now, RX-3 made in a respected, highly automated factory in mainland China. But it's half the price of a KLR. Can anyone explain to me how the KLR is $3500 better than this? I don't think you can. The KLR is still based on it's 1988 frame and engine design. (Yeah major update in '96 and '08 and finally a minor tweak or two in '14) But not $3500 better than the Cyclone. The KLR still has a carb and barely makes 40 hp. Everyone knows that a modern 450 on an MX bike is light years ahead of the KLR thumper design. I have high hopes that this 250, coupled with a lightweight frame still has a lot of tweak-ability and upgrades in it's future. (One thought comes to mind since it's fuel injected, a Hyabusa's turbo mounted this this thing. Totally could be done!) What this bike represents is that it is going to put the other adventure manufacturers on their toes. $20k average price for a high end Adv Tourer? It better be $15k better... I mean really impressive. The Cyclone will only get better as time goes on. Other engine options will come, no doubt. I've owned two KLRs, '05 and '08. I currently own a Triumph Tiger. The Cyclone makes me turn my head. I will more than likely buy two of these. One to tinker on and one to commute around town in. This is what motorcycles are supposed to cost. Not more than a car. Simple A-to-B transportation. I used to love going on group adv rides with my KLR. Knowing that I got to the same locales and beautiful destinations paying only a fraction of what the other guys were on. And usually less mechanical problems too! The Cyclone will be an instant hit. Especially if you can get off your high horse about things made in China. American's sentiment about anything Japanese is not very far behind in our collective history. Yet, not we regard things made in Japan as high quality. Times have changed people... American and European companies have invested heavily in China's manufacturing infrastructure. China has grown because of our economic freedoms, and we are now seeing the benefits. So take advantage now, before China gets too big for it's britches and starts to demand higher prices. And major manufacturing moves to India/Pakistan/etc... The Cyclone is what we've been demanding at a price we can actually afford! (Hey CSC, send me two Cyclones, (Red and White) I my company develop some aftermarket parts for it! I can already see it's going to need lower footpeg relocation brackets and better saddle bag options. I'll advertise the hell out of this bike if it's half the bike I think it can be!)

[@9livetofly]

I would love to see what the right side pannier looks like inside. Because of the exhaust it seems to be very limited in space

[@reactionbooth]

Are they available for sale if not when will they be?

[@csc150man]

They are. Call us at 909 445 0900.

[@biohazard10000]

Are they coming to Canada

[@csc150man]

Yes, they are coming to Canada. Keep an eye on the CSC blog for updates. www.CaliforniaScooterCo.com/blog.

[@johnanderson9822]

[@iofs3338]

Is that screen hard to read with polarized sunglasses?

[@JasonCWaite]

How are parts to get for it?

[@MrRubenAlonzo]

Love it, great bike for the price!

[@77pox]

This bike is also know in Mexico as an Italika brand they just change names in the us to sell more

[@titiocampo5829]

no, la moto es china, de marca zongshen, pero cambia el nombre por países, en Reino Unido es Honley rx-3, en Estados Unidos es Cyclon Rx-3, y aquí en México es de Italika

[@georginiuss]

En argentina es Corven triax 250 touring.

[@rhshel]

is TK still there

[@wickedleeloopy2115]

do they make them bigger than 250cc. was hoping maybe a 350-450cc bike would be a good size

[@ZoneTelevision]

Can you start the bike ?

[@csc150man]

Zone Television We can.

[@gearheaddave9639]

I saw this at the off road expo 2014

[@coolperson359]

Anyone know what highway driving is like on these? 0-60 times? Passing? Looks great for being $3500. I can only keep hoping it makes it's way north to Canada.

[@rhshel]

too bad no CSC classic 150 cc like I bought. Im still riding mine!

[@CLClubhouse]

Do you think there will be a lowering kit for this bike, my gf is only 5' 1"

[@csc150man]

We don't have a lowering kit yet, but I'm sure one will be available.

[@pyao2x]

Can it be fitted with a center stand?

[@csc150man]

Yes, we are finalizing the center stand design now.

[@mikemtz2949]

Helo Joe, do you know if this model and brand will come to Mexico? I am pretty sure there´s a huge market for a this bike, specially with all the features and specs. I would buy one for sure. Are you interested in bringing them here? Hehe

[@titiocampo5829]

si, ya está en México bajo la marca Italika

[@marchellevanwyk9503]

Anyone knows if this could come to South Africa

[@dvovirtualtech]

this bike looks good... what turns me off is the tires.... if it were mags, it would look better

[@milkman2591]

dvovirtualtech no way spoke wheels are stronger for adv

[@MrTriple3]

It'd be nice to have some details (as in actual measurements) of this bike. The first question they may answer could be, how much does this tiddler weight?

[@csc150man]

Please visit our site and you will see all of the technical data you seek.

[@nllommertnl]

why does the sport bike have usb port but this one doesnt? would think more people use a gps on this bike

[@that_clarky4181]

Do this for the Rx4 pleasee

[@andreapoindexter4642]

What site sells these in US

[@csc150man]

Andrea, we only sell direct; we do not sell through dealers. You can find out more about this by visiting our website. You can also call us directly (909 445 0900) and we will be happy to answer your questions.

[@MegaMarion05]

[@wahyudikarya9724]

[@danielcifuentes3802]

What is the Top Speed of the bike?

[@csc150man]

Daniel Cifuentes 84 mph.

[@seanchriscraft]

15" rear tire size??

[@csc150man]

The one in the video has a 15-inch rear wheel. Standard equipment will be a 17-inch rear wheel.

[@that_clarky4181]

It would be really really coolll

[@jbraMoVal]

if only i had a garage!

[@paulevans7317]

, i did like your blog , in the U,K, your bike is called a honley RX3 , but it is the same bike , I 1st saw the RX3 in nov 2015 , the baby adventure bike was just the job im only 5`6`` and saddle height was the 1st thing in my mind , 2rd was if i should end up on the floor , could i pick her up , lets say santa was good to me , and i got one in orange , my 1st adventure was only 98 miles but , i had a lot of fun , as a Novice to this kind of biking i could not pick a better bike for the money , in the book which came with bike ,it said to get the best out of her , to run her in at under 8000 rpm , which gave me a top speed of about 65 -70 mph , i would like to let you know how she runs over 8000rpm after she is run in , it would be nice to see how the match`s up to other adventure bikes of the same size eg 250cc , in my eyes it is a lot better than the honda`s 125 varadero and the 250 was only out , in the uk for 3 year or so , and was very slow , in england it as been wet , rain`rain `rain , BUT ON THE UP SIDE , Green lane`s are dirty and fun , and the rx3 loves the dirty road , it`s the inevitable the bike is a crossover expect a smile , it`s that simple , as i ended my 2rd run out weather was not good , and i had a wonderful time , could i do it on a 125 varadero no way , and if i had used a bike of about 250 up , i thing the price would of stop me , ,i would love to see you test more 250cc adventure bikes as i like the way you did your blog , best wishes for 2016

[@Артем-ж9ж2д]

Оу! Наш знакомый ZONGSHEN ZS250GY-3

[@africanos89]

wel harleys are also china made so china will get in the bike business definetly , it would be nice to be 550 or 450 cc for longer rides its an adventure bike you buy for long rides , you cant rely on 250cc

[@JasonCWaite]

$3,500 all cash to get started w/this?

[@leandarleeshultz8683]

I would really like test one out for a long weekend.
