We bought two new RSX's one for me, one for my wife, we bought
extended warranties for both, yes for personal use, perhaps some dealers
do not sell the warranties for some reason.

There is so much talk on the board about issues with these machines. I just want to tell someone good about these machines, I have driven my unit 500 trail miles, have had zero trouble, I mean zero. We love the machine, well built, easy to get in and out of, look cool, it's great! It is a bit noisy. and power steering would be nice, since RSX's are not cheap.

The second machine driven by my wife only 20 miles is too new to tell about, as she seems to want to go with me instead of driving hers.

2778Another report, took one RSX to Brimstone in TN over this past weekend. We rode a half day on Friday, full day on Saturday and a half day on Sunday. weather was cool in morning but warmed up a lot towards mid afternoon. Had a great time.

The RSX performed perfect, not a issue. Rode mostly on the green and blue trails, stayed off the red ones. Ran up about 130 miles, used about 7 gal of fuel.

Hi Richard, We took our Rsx out for fall colors and did a 73 mile day between the Soo Line and Red Top trails in MN. Not a problem either and very happy with our purchase. Averaged about 18 miles a gallon.:Chers:

2,025 miles - @4 hours broken rocker arm, first 200 miles 2 park brake cables and park brake lock. Shredded my first belt at 2,001 miles new primary clutch and belt, 2,025 miles shredded second belt, new secondary clutch and belt. (should have it back today)
I have had great luck once the first 200 miles were out of the way until now. Both clutches were worn. Secondary rollers were destroyed. Haven't seen a bill yet but, this will easily be $1K with clutches, belt and labor.:Nnd:
