It's a little pathetic that you're so offended about a review of an inanimate object. Then come the personal attacks. I'm sorry you're having a bad day, I hope things go better for you.

I know this is a while ago, but I kinda understand why this is still one of your best review videos. It's honest and should be appreciated.

Its reviews like this one that will make this company up their game. Brutally honest reviews help tremendously. Everyone has to start somewhere and with time they will grow and become better, hopefully.

Calling yourself an 'average' off road rider is probably selling yourself a bit short.

Thank you for this! When struggling with a beloved, but underpowered and carbureted xt225 through the fantastic elevation changes of Nevada and Utah, I considered "upgrading" to the Rx3. I'm so glad I stumbled on the lowered DR650 as an option during my search. I know people who love their Rx3, and I'm thrilled for them, but for going 80 on the highway and then hopping on orv trails, I'm so happy with my DR650! Oh, and I think you are way better than an average rider. :-)

I really like how you have everyone do a video on it and added their opinions into this video. It really adds a lot of credibility to your opinion. You should do that every time. Great videos and awesome work.

I recently found your channel and I have to tell you, no one else on KZread can hold a candle to your videos. Absolutely fantastic!

One of the best reviews I have ever seen... That is why we come to You Tube.... The honest, real life, truth from somebody who actually rides these type of bikes... Brilliant! I just subscribed because honesty is so incredibly refreshing!

I'm so glad you reviewed this. I've been wondering about it since I first heard about it and in my experience I can trust your reviews implicitly.

Excellent review. I feel like I was on the csc for those thausand miles with all the good information, feedback and comparison given. Thanks for getting out there and doing the hard labor for us.

I came over from ShadeTree... Great review!

Excellent review. I started riding a year ago and I appreciate your channel so much.Keep up the good work.

For a long time now I thought that this might be my next bike. But, I gotta say. This is the first review of this machine that wasn't sponsored by either CSC or Zongshen I've seen. I love the honesty and that honesty has got me thinking or more accurately, rethinking my decision to make this my next bike purchase. Not that I'm scrapping the idea of owning one completely. But, I think you might be right that time will tell with this bike and maybe in a few years, who knows. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to review this bike. Your input had been very helpful.

This review was worth 20 minutes of my time (just as I had my backpack to step out the door)! I have no interest at all in the bike in my current situation but i really enjoy listening to you rationally review a product. The Morgan Freeman voice wasn't so much there this time around but I can always listen to the everVoice ;-) for hours on end. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work, I look forward to whatever comes next! :)

thank you Tyler !! I seriously love this review. I love my DRZ400S, and after watching your review, I honestly love my DRZ even more. In a moment of charity, I considered the fact that you reviewed that bike in the harshest, machine smashing environment our great country has to offer, (within normal limits of course), but the three states you rode in seem to be the perfect proving ground for every adventure bike.....Thank you for an honest and thorough review.

Thanks for the review! Good to see a comprehensive detailed review of this bike, as there are too many unknowns concerning it.

Great review. Sounds the same as buying tools from Harbor Freight. Cheaper, and work fine for modest use, but not for something that I'll use all the time and expect a lot out of.

Tyler, just so you know, you are doing a really impressive job with your videos, it's just gorgeous ! On the review, it's also a nice job. Informative and honest. Not surprising for someone following you for some time but people discovering you will appreciate! 👍

EXCELLENT review. Thanks for saving me the time looking any further into the CSC bike. Keep up your good work. I enjoy the videos.

love the fact you are brutal with the review and not sugar coating it........this is why I love your channel Tyler! but for the money......I bought and built my xr650r. tractor like torque, long travel suspension and proven reliability. long live the dual sports!

I took some advice from an adventure rider last year and bought an RX3 last summer. Put 1.2k miles on it before covering it up for winter. Changed the oil once and tightened maybe two bolts. I ride well-worn trails and dirt roads but mostly pavement. I don't treat it like a dirt bike. I like to use my RX3 to commute on nice days, too. Over the course of thirty years I've owned CRFs and an XT, along with a Magna and my current VStar. For the money, fit, finish, and performance, you can't beat the RX3 as an adventure bike. You just hop on it and go. Unlike Japanese enduros, the RX3 loves the interstate and winding mountain roads. It feels solid and isn't wobbly at high speeds like the Japanese makes. In city traffic, the RX3 always keeps up, no problem, even on steep inclines. Now, I get it, you want to judge it as a dirt bike. But it's an adventure bike, not a dirt bike. As an adventure bike, the RX3 is unbeatable in the 250 class, and I'd recommend it to anyone. It's surprised me. It's shown me what a little 250 can REALLY do -- after riding for 30 years.

It’s great that you had this experience. I own one of these and it has not performed anything at all as you describe yours does. I fall firmly in line with Tyler’s assessment.

It has proven time and again that it cannot be trusted and I would not recommend anyone purchase it based on my experience and that of many other people I know.

@@cliftonoram2923 Sorry you ended up with a dud. What year did you buy? Mine is 2021 and perfect for riding trails around Branson Mo. On pavement, it keeps up with any traffic, even going up the long hills. I don't have 5k miles on it and don't know how long it will last. So far I've replaced the battery and done regular maintenance. That's it. It sits under a deck, covered, during winter.

Came here from shadetree surgeon, and I'm glad I did. I have ranted many times in the past over useless mainstream reviews that are little more than a PR piece, not only about motorcycles but also about cars, TV's, phones, laptops, tools and basically anything. A review that is not honest is completely useless as consumer advice, so I love it when people like yourself are honest despite potential loss in revenue as a result.

Like a black light on a hotel bed your review not only exposed the shortcomings of the bike, it exposed the shortcomings of the vehicle's importer as well. I just read their insult riddled blog response to your review. Nice work.

Great honest review and you really ran it through the ringer. On those rocky trails, I'd be wondering about taking my KLX 300 with full knobbies on it. While the manufacturer promotes it as dual sport/adventure bike, a large percentage of ADV riders rarely tackle trails like you do. For those riders, this might be adequate to introduce them to the DS/ADV community. Then again, it could just turn them off, too!

Just found this channel. Absolutely love it! Keep up the good work.

My son and I are planning on an extended tour of the Philippines - balut and San Migs, and all - and plan on getting a couple of these RX3s. Perfect bike for the roads and terrain over there, plus lockable storage. Adventure is what you make of it. Thanks for the review!

Thank you for this brutally honest review of this bike from your newest subscriber. Keep up the great reviews!

Good report. I bought a Lifan gy200 with no frills and it is strong a very capable. I tightened a few bolts and now is great, easy to ride off-road. I made my own accessories which work 3 years on.

Hi, here in COlombia this bike is not injection, have carburator, more power but more troubles for tuning the carburator. ALso have a lot of problems for bad asembly. But for this money is the best choice. Have a cost of 4000 dollars here, but if you want buy other bike klr 650, dr 650 or other need 8000 dollars....For this reason is a medium choice. You say the true, is not a great bike, i say is a regular bike. But for this money in argentina, chile and Colombia is a on-off road good choice, no excelent only good. Nice day, sorry for my regular english. Regards from Colombia.

The real competition to this bike isn't brand new Japanese bikes, it's this bike brand new, against used Japanese bikes, and you can get those for less, and they'll still be more reliable. You could get a brand new RX3 for 4000 dollars, or you could get an 6-9 year old KLR, DR, or DL, and have a better experience and they'll still hold up better.

A pretty thorough review, and thanks for your honesty of your opinion. Wondering how much suspension upgrades would cost from aftermarket. I've read the shock from Progressive that CSC offers as an option is more harsh than stock. As you say, longevity is yet to be proven, and one Zongshen owner in Idaho had to replace his engine just shy of 70K (70,000) miles. Not sure how that compares to other 250's. One thing that caught me off guard, was when you mentioned the smiles it brought when ridden within it's limitations. That seems to be the common sentiment on RX3 forums, outside of one guy who seems to have difficulty shifting in to 6th, even after CSC sent him a complete replacement engine under warranty. Again, thanks for the video adventure.

Ohhh maaaan..... Seeing Jeffy on the back of that bike made my day... He looked like a big teddy bear giving Ol' EveRide a big hug!...lol Oh that was great!

Was obsessed with this bike and thinking seriously about buying one .your review savaged that idea .eyes opening .thanks

Came here from Shadetree. As he mentioned, consumers deserve honest, unbiased, and un-sponsored (by the manufacturer) reviews on motorcycles. I think he missed the fact that we deserve them on ALL products. And you, my friend, do not hesitate to provide them. Regardless of the backlash, reviews like this are crucial to consumers. You compared it to its market competitors, which is information we need to make an educated purchase. Some may find that the 'baloot' may be exactly what they're looking for, others may want something a bit more... substantial. And refined. Keep making quality content like this, naysayers be darned. Those of us who appreciate them will thank you. Keep it shiny side up!!

Great review. You did a great job of pointing out weaknesses and strength's with out being a jerk about it. the review had a very positive feel even when pointing out the weaknesses.

Great review as usual, thank you! I was so hoping that you were going to say it was at least good for a lightweight "dirt road" bike. But if it's prone to washing out from under you with no notice because of poor contact with the ground, as you said, knobs aren't going to completely fix that. Thanks for your hard work. I enjoy your reviews very much. Drag race with your wife was a nice touch... My buddy's constant comment on his Prius... "I really love it, but it is soooo slooooow!" All my best.

Thanks for the review. I almost got this bike before getting the KLR. Now I feel better with my decision.

Well organised and detailed review of the product, nice editing and content. keep it up...

Came here because of a Shadetree Surgeon video. Great review man, I hope to see a lot of great future content.

Good, honest review. Nice to see, thanks for your hard work Everide.

Great review. I own Japanese motorcycles and a much loved Chinese bike, and know the pros and cons of both, so it's nice to hear balanced comments for a change.

Excellent review. It ended up being pretty much what I expected the review would turn out to be. I think given enough time and continued interest in Zhongshan stateside there's a possible future for them like Kia and Hyundai once were, but hopefully they don't go the route of Daewoo or the Pinto.

Dude you're my new favorite moto channel. Love the videos!

Great review! I love that you included other people's opinions. They seemed familiar to me ; ) Thanks for a truly honest, thorough, and entertaining review. The big magazines and other reviewers can learn a thing or ten from you. I'll bet Toyota will sell more Prius's too! It would have been really funny to have a person using a walker in the first few frames of the drag race and then again in the last, as if they beat both of you to the finish line. Have a great day!

Dude, you 're awesome! First I want to apologize for my rude comment about leaning on the gas tank for added traction on the front wheel. Second, I am going to start supporting you on patreon. Please keep doing what you're doing. Thank you for your awesome content!

as someone who currently lives as an expat in china basically your conclusions from your 3 different riders towards the end were 100% accurate. its what they use it for around around here - a scooter/commuter that doesn't look like one The only thing that you didn't portray accurately is the carrying a passenger part. Here the riders (i guess) weigh 65kg with 50kg ish girlfriends on the back so its perfectly suited for commuting with a passenger

you answered my question about this bike. thanks for the honest review I'll not even ask about highway buzz through the bars

I’m just looking at this for a cheap commuter. I’m new to motorcycles in general, but thank you for your review 🙂

Very good, honest review. I wish more were like that. Well done and thank you!

Very good review - with a result to be expected. Quality costs money and there is a reason why other bikes are more expensive - and thats not because the manufacturers want to make huge profit. From my point of view there are points that disqualify the bike entirely. One is the suspension. The other one that it doesnt even comfortably reach the legal speed limit. While I hate riding highways sometimes you just need to use them to quickly get from A to B and the last thing you want to be is a rolling traffic obstacle.

Great Vid. I wanted this bike originally because it looks so good. But since it didn't have a long track record I ended up getting a DR650. Looks like I made the right decision for the type of riding I do.

Great Review , be nice if more reviews would be honest like this one on all bikes

Very good review, definitely made up my mind with that thing. That was a hilarious with Jeff. looked like it was struggling with both of you.

Really liked this video, even though I already have all the bikes I need. It was fun and entertaining, plus all the beautiful shots. Also it was great seeing CDS, Mrs Stacy, and Hemit in there.

I wasn't considering buying this bike, but still really enjoyed your review. thanks !!!!

thank you so much for an honest review.... I think the world needed this. I wish CSC would market this bike properly

I don't think I'll be turning in my BMW for this anytime soon... Great review Tyler!

Good review bro, keep the good work, we want honesty no bs from people who fill their pockets, respect

Great video, I really like your presentation style and positive comments even when something isn't very good. You've talked a lot about the KLR and DR-Z, but rarely mention the DR650. Are they less popular in the US than the other two? An honest DR review would be excellent- I'd be really interested to see what you think of a stock machine versus your heavily modded KLR and DR-Z

Great honest review! Very well explained and executed. If you get the chance to review a rally raid 310gs please do!

Your review is just awesome and let me stop from falling for its Younger sibling RX 1 just bcz of its price... A really good review well done

Tyler, this is a well thought out and researched review. You have enough experience to know what you are talking about and be able to compare it to other similar motorcycles. I've just read that blog post aimed at you and that was far more brutal than this review, but maybe not as honest. I think you are right. Give it a few more years and they could be a game changer. But not yet. I'd rather go with the tried and trusted DRZ400 or similar which has a plethora of aftermarket goodies.

No dog in this hunt - I'm looking for a bike for my wife/daughters to use. The review was good though I think you might have taken the bike on some rougher trails than it was meant for. For the price it is a bike we all really WANT to love. The owner community seems to have good experiences with them. It's definitely a good time to be alive in the small ADV bike world with all the models coming out.

this is a great view. Thank you for your honest with the view. The list of cons and pros about this bike. Awesome video.

I have to say I am dissappointed alittle, but honestly not shocked. When Im in the market for a proper offroad capable bike I guess Id rather shell out the money for a dual sport. I love your reviews, you're incredibly well spoken and you explain all the ups and downs of the bike. Keep up the great work man, and keep on riding - 8bit

THANK YOU!... you had just saved me of making a BIG MISTAKE (Y)

Great review. I was hoping it would be "The Bike" but I'm glad you were honest bro! Thanks.

I had ordered the TT250 and not the RX3 based on what I planned to do with the bike. . Wanted to see what CSC looked like before I signed the dotted line. So bought a motorcycle rack from CycleGear and drove to LA to pick it up. Really liked the shop and sales system. Was able to test drive the bike before I finalized the purchased. They were great. I totally agree with the review of the RX3 and would still consider it as another bike to add to my collection. CSC does have upgrades like front brake kits, which I would recommend. Did have issues with the TT250 and parts were sent quickly. I am hopefull that, as the review suggested, it is like Hyundai and will improve over the next few years. Now I say this as I worked for a dealership that had Hyundai as one of its 4 lines of cars and Hyundai has become an excellent car over the years. Visit CSC if you have the chance.

another fantastic review. thank you for helping everyone see thru all of the marketing smoke and mirrors. certainly a great bike for a certain very small group of riders...

Thanks bro, I was looking to get into this hobby on the cheap, now I have been schooled.

Great and honest review, bro! Subscribed 👍

Great review. Awesome video keep up the great work.

Great overview on a bike I wanted to be better - It may not be what I wanted to hear, but it was well considered and honest. My biggest hope for CSC / Zongshen is to break open the market for genuine high-reliability, low-cost Chinese bikes. There's definitely a sweet spot somewhere at the $3k to $5k range for a bulletproof dual sport tractor or a nimble touring hound

Bloody Great review mate! Loved the the whole video! I reckon you hit the nail on the head with all the review points... Well done :-)

Once upon a time I had alittle Chinese flywing 150cc dirt bike Once I locked all the bolts down and changed out the cab it was actually a good bike for beginner/intermediate riders. Great motor with a lot of low end. I'm not sure if Honda used most of the same parts but from cables , plastics (looked different but same mount holes on the frame), motor parts , etc.... If it broke I just went to the Honda dealer said I had the 150 and got my parts....

The ones sold here in Argentina are suffering from starter override clutch premature wear. Lots of them. Some people found out that there is a Japanese replacement from Honda that is the exact fit (part 28125-MEY-671). Cheers.

So, um... Basically this is a $4000 bike right? LOL - this has to be the best review I've ever seen (thorough, detailed, well justified) and definitely the most entertaining.

I loved your honest review man, this bike was just launched in Bali under VIAR distribution, under the name Vortex 250cc, but no injection for us, only carburetor version, i will take it for a ride in Black lava Kintamani volcano soon, to see how she react compared to the CRF 250 Rally and the Versys 250 (yes 250 we don't get the 300 in Indonesia as well 😂), cheers from Bali mate !

Great informative vids,well done!
