Ahh yea i get that sound when my chain is loose even with the new DID chain. Its good to hear you solved yours so easily.
So now I have a terribly difficult time shifting to 2nd from first while driving. Oddly enough when parked, It takes a while to get into neutral. I have no idea what's causing this. Oil has been changed, chain tightened and no change in this or the increasing rattling sounds.
I've just passed the 10,000km mark! As far as I know, thats a new record for this model:DWill the Zongshen RX3 survive??http://kelleyssilkroad.blogspot.com/

for your shifting down problem check the clutch cable adjustment.
Maybe the clutch does not separate well.
Or if it happened just after an oil change they may have filled wrong oil so that does cause clutch separation problems as wellSWM RS500R, R1200GS LC

I'll check the cable. I haven't adjusted that in a while. You reminded me that someone once adjusted that when I complained of this problem before. Its actually not new but before I could get it up to 2nd in two or three tries. Now it takes a hundred meters or more and Its really annoying in city traffic or off road.

09-03-2014, 07:05 PMCalifornia Scooter Company just posted at www.advrider.com. They are dringing the RX3 to the US market, and have a few they have been testing. They just posted that, the first shipment of these only, will sell for $2895.00. After those are gone, the price will go up to $3495.00. There is a thread at advrider entitled A New Thumper. For me though, living on the big island of Hawaii, first, shipping one to me would be spendy. Second, if there was a warranty problem, it could be a big problem. No dealer. One local independent repair shop, I hear, won't work on China bikes. That means, I'd be on my own. And while California Scooter Co. has a good reputation, it would be a big gamble for me.

After 25,000km, I still like mine. I'm still using it and it made it to Turkey without any major issues. 250cc was definitely enough in China. In terms of ride quality, I don't feel unstable going as fast as it possibly can. No shakes or anything. The wheel bearing and a few other issues discussed here i think might be worth looking into if you decide to get it but all in all I'm happy with my choice.

I realized I didn't write about the solutions to a couple of the problems I mentioned earlier.
The shifting problem, where it wouldn't go up to 2nd gear very easily was solved by tightening the shifter pedal...
The rear bearing problem has hopefully been solved by slightly lengthening the tube that goes around the axel and between the bearings inside the wheel.Will the Zongshen RX3 survive??http://kelleyssilkroad.blogspot.com/
