New adventure bike caught on road – spy shot

A bike enthusiasts had just sent us some spy shots of what could be a Zongshen RX3.

The pictures was taken by Wahi Abdul Rahman, said that he spotted the bike while on his way to work this morning in Sungai Petani.

The bike looks like its going through a road rest with a trade plate.

The RX3 is an adventure ready 26hp 250cc bike, complete with panniers and windscreen.

The same bike is also sold under a Russian brand in Europe as the M1nsk TRX300i.

In otherwords the bike might also be sold under a rebadged brand here in Malaysia.

So what do you think about it? Is it a Zongshen RX3 or did you spot something we missed?

More info as we dig around so stay tuned.

Benelli @ 2014 EICMA

Benelli shows off the Benelli BN600GT at the 2014 EICMA.

Apparently we missed out on one of the big unveiling in EICMA last week.

Benelli came out with the BN600GT which is apparently a spinoff of the current TNT600 that we have in our market.

While the TNT600 is a naked sports, the GT as the name suggest is the touring version with more upward seating position, plusher seat and a fairing with a windscreen for a comfortable long distance riding.

Apart from that not much have been changed on the chassis and on the four-cylinder 600cc watercooled engine.

Big news since word up the grapevine that Benelli Malaysia is in the midst of launching severel new models next year and the BN600GT is highly likely to be included in that list along with a 250cc naked.

Thats all for now but we will surely dig deaper and get you more juicy info soon.
