Wake up competition! Cyclone RG3, 400cc sport touring, is launched in China
Cyclone (Chinese motorcycle company, part of the Zongshen group) has launched in China the RG3, a 400cc sport tourer.
Recently, the company launched the RX6, a 650cc adventurous motorcycle powered by British manufacturer Norton.
The Cyclone RG3 has a modern design, with aggressive lines, mainly on the front (optical set reminiscent of the new Kawasaki ZX-10R), with an LED cannon in the center (feature used in the new Yamaha R7).
In addition, the front fairing is quite wide, which helps to increase travel comfort. Speaking of travel, the model can be equipped with side cases, which make it even more ready for the ride.
The heart of the Cyclone RG3 is the 2-cylinder 400 cm³ liquid cooled engine, which is capable of generating up to 42 HP of maximum power and 34 Nm / 3.5 kgfm of torque. The gearbox is 6-speed and the fuel tank capacity is 21 liters.
In terms of technology, it features Full-LED lighting, a 6.8-inch full-color TFT digital panel, electrically adjustable windshield and front video camera (to record your travels).
Anyway, Cyclone RG3 tries to be a good option in a segment not so explored by traditional brands. There is no information as to whether it will be sold in other countries.
