RX3 to RX4 Comparisons: Part 2

Joe Berk Evaluates the 2019 CSC RX4 Dual-sport motorcycle

This is a continuation of the preceding blog comparing the new 2019 CSC RX4 to the very popular RX3 Adventure motorcycle. I probably should have waited until I had taken all of the photos and organized the comparison into discrete areas (like wheels, tires, brakes, and so on), but you’re going to have to deal with the ramblings of a disorganized mind (and that would be mine). With apologies in advance, my ramblings will ramble on in no particular order.

With that as a preface, let’s take a look at the fuel tanks. First up is the RX4 gas tank, and the big news is that it holds 5.3 gallons instead of the RX3’s 4.2 gallons. Here’s the RX4 tank and you can see the locking gas cap:

The RX4 fuel tank. The colors are stunning. It holds 5.3 gallons.

You can’t help but notice the paint on this motorcycle. CSC has chosen TWO colors for the 2019 production bikes. The bike i am evaluating is “Tangerine Pearl” and it’s visually arresting. It will stop you in your tracks when you see it. Here’s a close up…

RX4 in Tangerine Pearl. It’s beautiful. It’s the new fastest color.

There are really three or four colors going on here. One is the metalflake orange. Another is the metallic silver on the tank’s side panels. A third is the even darker metallic gray on yet another side panel (you’ll see that in another photo below). And the fourth is the black of the frame and the molded plastic body bits. It all comes together nicely.

You can compare that to the orange on my 2015 RX3…

My orange RX3. This is the 2015 model, which is little bit different than the later CSC orange on newer RX3 motorcycles.

I mentioned the RX4’s 5.3 gallon capacity. Okay, let me explain a bit more…
