After covering 5000 miles through nine states CSC concluded its Western America Adventure Ride last Saturday. The tour was intended to show the world that the RX3 is a world class, reliable motorcycle.

2015 CSC Cyclone RX-3 Review

The Western America Adventure Ride started at CSC Motorcycles Corporate Headquarters in Azusa, California, and continued through Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, South Dakota, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in temperatures ranging from 105 F to as low as 35 F. Attending riders crossed the Colorado River, the Snake River, the Russian River, the Columbia River, and visited Joshua Tree National Park, Zion National Park, Bryce National Park, Capitol Reef National Park, Mt. Rushmore National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Devil’s Tower National Park, Hell’s Canyon National Park, Redwoods State Park, Custer State Park, and several other US and state parks.

“The motorcycles performed flawlessly,” said Steve Seidner, President and CEO of CSC Motorcycles. “We had one chain wear out at the end of its service life and one flat tire. There were no engine failures, and we ran the bikes at 7500 rpm for 18 days straight. The team averaged about 300 miles a day without a break. We were also delighted to have several US RX3 owners join the group and ride with us for portions of the tour. It was a grand adventure.”
