Several of you have asked about the gold anodized wheels that have appeared in a couple of recent maintenance tutorials. We have styling studies and accessories activities going on literally all the time, and one of the things we’ve been playing with is an accessories package for an RX3-based Motard bike. So, here’s the deal…we’ll share these photos with you but you have to promise not to deluge us with phone calls about when you can buy the bike, when the accessories will be available, etc. This particular bike is not for sale, and it will be awhile before the wheels and other bits are available. But the wheels and accessories are coming, boys and girls, so keep an eye on the blog.
The bike you see above is another one of Steve’s inspirations, and we had Joel, one of our young test riders (whose skills are way better than mine) wring it out in the mountains this morning. Joel grabbed these photos on his ride earlier today, and based on the quality of his photographs, it looks like he might have me outclassed there, too! Joel reports that the bike absolutely shreds and drags the pegs with ease, which is obvious based on the complete lack of chicken strips on the 17-inch fore-and-aft street tires.
Stay tuned, because there’s more to come on this, folks!
