    The engine high tech, material used is good. Bike give a lot of minor problems but dangerous one. The problems stemmed from VERY VERY POOR assembly work by line workers and POOR PRODUCTION supervision by supervisors. Totally NO PDI at all. YPU WANT TO KNOW THE POOR QUALITY FINISHED PRODUCT go to Facebook WMOTO RT3 GROUP and read the RT3 OWNERS postings.
