GPrider Added a reply to so who got to ride the Honda RX yesterday?

Keefer has a write up. Not what I was looking for. Just the regular its all good stuff. I would like to know how it stacks up to the R, maybe even the yamaha RX. I understand it was only one ride on one day, but something to come away with other than "its a great bike"

my point was, ok, your engine blew up, that sucks. Call your dealer on Monday, see what they say. If you get nowhere then by all means, post a help me thread. But at least make a phone call first and see what they say. Many guys around here are quick to point fingers at the manufacture or a moto...

come on, Honda had control over releasing these bikes just a couple days ago. Im sure if there was an issue there is no way they would have let them go. Maybe someone somewhere had an issue at hour 5, it happens. Just like the other thread of the guy with the KTM who's motor blew at 2 hours, it...

your wondering if anyone else has ever had an engine lock up? the answer is for sure, it happens. What exactly do you need help with? your dealers phone number? They should be able to help you.

well, being I have not rode the "new" cassis, I suppose it could be better, just never liked the ktm hinge feeling my 2015 both 350 and 450 had. Back to weight, my xr650 was a pig but would ride straight over rocks with zero deflection. Just didnt want to get it sideways in the whoops!

most everyone is suckered into thinking because the KTM is lighter its better. MXA says so right? Of course weight is huge, but doesn't mean better. If you think Honda or any jap manufacturer cant do the same you are fooling yourself. Weight comes at the cost of material, as in less. Meaning longevity, reliability, ect. The KTM is lighter...

my issue is my race season starts the first weekend of January. Missing the first round cant happen. So, if the RX is not here, just get the R, buy an 18" rear, now I have a spare, and buy the ES later when available. Should be plug and play, no biggie. As far as a tank, I would want...

MBR, what is your first impression between the RX and R ? I am planning on getting an RX but if they are still several weeks out I was thinking of just getting the R and putting ES on it later. I can pick up an R today. thanks
