The DRZ question…

One of the folks who recently viewed our Facebook page posted an interesting question:   How does the RX3 compare to the Suzuki DRZ400?   I thought about that one for a second and I posted a response on Facebook.   I read it again and I liked it so much I thought I would repeat it here:

Matt, I’m sure the DRZ400 is a great bike. The RX3 costs nearly $3K less than the DRZ, it has a warranty twice as long as the DRZ, it includes the luggage and engine guards (the DRZ does not), the RX3 is fuel injected (the DRZ is carbureted), the DRZ has a 5-speed gearbox (the RX3 has 6 speeds), and the RX3 has 150cc less displacement than the DRZ. The DRZ does not include a shop manual; the RX3 does. Suzuki does not offer guided forays into Baja and other adventure tours at no cost, CSC does. Dealer freight, setup fees, and other fees on any Suzuki are inflated by the dealer, on the RX3 they are not. If you want to talk to CSC’s CEO, pick up the phone and call us; if you want to talk to the head of Suzuki, well, you get the idea…

And speaking of Baja, I’ll be posting more on our upcoming trip in the next few days.  We sure had a great time on the CSC Inaugural Baja Run (as the faces of our riders show in the photo below), and we’re going to see and do even more this year.

Somebody asked about joining the ride on something other than an RX3, and the answer to that one is a firm no.   But we have a solution to that problem if you don’t have an RX3; just give us a call at 909 445 0900, ask to speak with Ryan, and have your credit card handy!
