And boy oh boy, that’s what’s been happening. We sent our press release around a day or so ago and the Internet lit up. Rider magazine, ADV Pulse, ADV Moto, ADV Rider, Motorcycle.com, Internet forums, and more posted the story and are seeing a ton of hits. Rider magazine had 37,000 hits on their FB page with our story the first day! I’ll provide a list of some of the links a bit further below.
One of the things I think was really cool was a comparo chart ADV Pulse put together in their story (you can see the entire article here)…
That chart was something I was thinking of doing but we have been so busy with the new bike I just had not had time. Thanks, ADVPulse! And folks, don’t be confused by the $3495 price listed for our bike…that’s what the price will be soon, but for just a little while longer, it’s only $2895.
How much longer? Hard to say, but it won’t be long. I personally took the first order from our good buddy Chester just 15 minutes after posting the story about the RX-3 here on the blog, and the phones have been going nuts ever since. It won’t be long. My good buddy Peter (a good friend for over 30 years) tracked me down in my car yesterday morning to order one, and when I asked him about color, he asked how the blue looked. I told Peter it looked great, he said let’s do it, and then I grabbed this photo to email to him…
Later this morning I’m going to post a blog about why a 250cc makes so much sense. Right now I’m enjoying a hot cup of coffee, but before I sign off, let me suggest a series of links to you showing just how brightly the Internet is lighting up with the RX-3 story..

And there’s more, but you get the idea. On the forums and FB pages, you’ll see all the haters out in force, with all of the usual criticisms and stupid stuff people are emboldened to say on the Internet. That’s okay…it’s what folks do on the Internet. We’re enjoying the comments when we can find time to read them…in between taking orders on this exciting new motorcycle!
