Zongshen Rx3
The Zongshen Rx3 has a top speed of 145 km/h (estimated; note: real-world reports vary between 130–150 km/h), produces 21 hp and weighs 178 kg. Motoryk rates it 7/10.
Zongshen RX3 (також продається як CSC RX3 у Північній Америці) був представлений близько 2015 року як спільний проект між китайським виробником Zongshen та California Scooter Company (CSC). Він привернув помітну увагу, коли група гонщиків завершила експедицію «Два колеса до Лхаси» до Тибету, продемонструвавши свої можливості пригодницьких турів за доступною ціною. Він широко розглядається як значний крок вперед для китайських мотоциклів з точки зору якості, надійності та вартості, допомагаючи змінити уявлення про велосипеди китайського виробництва на західних ринках.

Що повинні знати покупці
Loncin Engine Reliability
The RX3 uses a 250cc Loncin engine co-developed with BMW, making it more reliable than typical budget Chinese bikes. Regular oil changes every 1,500-2,000 miles are critical to maintaining longevity.
Watch Electrical Components
Known weak points include the rectifier/regulator and cheap wiring connectors, which can cause charging issues over time. Inspecting and upgrading these early can prevent roadside breakdowns.
Low Resale Value
The RX3 depreciates quickly due to its Chinese brand stigma, meaning used examples can be found at very steep discounts. This also means buying new offers little financial advantage over a clean used unit.

"Brilliant budget adventure bike if you're mechanically inclined and diligent."
$2,500-$4,500 usedThe RX3 is China's most credible adventure bike attempt, and used examples represent genuinely decent value if you go in eyes open. Zongshen actually engineered this thing properly — the 312cc parallel twin pulls cleanly, the suspension handles dirt roads without drama, and the ergonomics suit longer days than you'd expect from a budget middleweight. Previous owners who bought cheap and maintained cheaply are your biggest hazard here, not the motorcycle itself. Check the chain, sprockets, and air filter obsessively — neglect shows up fast on these. The electrical connectors are the RX3's Achilles heel; corrosion creeps in and causes gremlins that'll have you chasing ghosts. Insist on service records and budget $200-300 immediately for a full fluid refresh, new plugs, and connector dielectric grease. Do that and you've bought yourself a surprisingly capable adventure tourer that won't embarrass you on a weekend gravel run.
