html When I went to Chongqing in May, I briefly rode the RG3 of Ski Kelong . That time I was with Lao Yang and I took a simple video at that time.
The distance I rode that day was not very long. I ran to Nanshan Road, Meiniu Village in Chongqing, and went to Yangjiang to sway. The experience of the whole vehicle was still good, but because the time was short, I didn’t understand it very thoroughly.
A few days ago, I went to Shandong Weihai Motorcycle and borrowed the RG3 from the chariot teacher and rode around 1,500 kilometers. It is basically considered that I have a deeper understanding of this car. Some riders also left messages asking me to talk about the experience of this car. Today I will share some of my feelings.
In fact, there are many test drive reports and related reviews about the RG3 car, and the introduction is detailed enough. Select some articles:
Motorcycle Magazine: Car Review: Experience Saikelong RG3, in the era of "National ADV", can sports travel models break through?
Locomotive Network : Saikelong RG3, the perfect combination of sports and travel
Moto Ouye: a station wagon that lives up to the word sports, test drive Saikelong RG3 all-round RV
Motor bar: The choice of elite travelers: all sports travelers are required, Saikelong RG3 applies to compete!
Interested car friends are basically concerned about RG3 in two aspects: One is how the RG3 car itself and what are its advantages and disadvantages; the second is that it will compare with Honda 00, and will be entangled between "may be more suitable for your choice" and "Everyone said it was OK, but I am not sure if I like it" .
Part 1: How to ride RG3?
RG3 is a sports wagon. At present, sports wagons are not a popular model with mainstream volume. Saikelong's choice of such a category is likely to be based on the advance analysis and judgment of market development, and he believes that this market segment will gradually form.
It is understood that the Sykelon project RG3 is mainly based on the following considerations: First, the sporty appearance of the sports car itself is still in line with the current needs; second, for some users who want to ride the sports car to travel to motorcycles, it is still a little tired after all, and the comfort performance of the sports car is relatively good to meet the requirements; third, the domestic infrastructure is becoming more and more perfect, and the road conditions are relatively good. For most car enthusiasts who do not play hardcore crossing, the station wagon can already meet the needs of most cases.
For RG3 products, Saikelong also starts from practicality more, such as a large fuel tank of 21L, a large screen with rich information, such as a camera and human-computer interconnection system, etc.
I rode the RG3 modified by the chariot teacher. The main changes are the adjustment of the appearance of the windshield, the adjustment of the handlebar height, the addition of the wind wing, and the replacement of Tengsen's high-grab tires and DID chain. These adjustments are all to improve the driving experience of travel.
. In terms of power,
RG3 is equipped with a parallel twin-cylinder engine with a displacement of 401cc of TC400. This engine is optimized and improved based on the TC380R. The power has been upgraded from the original 27kw to 31.5kw, and the compression ratio has also come from 10:1 to 11.6:1.
From the data, the original TC380R's maximum torque is 35/6500 and the maximum power is 27/9000; the current TC400's maximum torque is 34/8000 and the maximum power is 31.5/9000. Judging from the data alone, the original TC380R was a relatively medium-low torque engine. The current TC400 has an increase of 1,500 maximum torque speed, which is a relatively high-speed engine. html When I went to Chongqing in May, I briefly rode the RG3 of Ski Kelong .

Judging from the data alone, the original TC380R was a relatively medium-low torque engine. The current TC400 has an increase of 1,500 maximum torque speed, which is a relatively high-speed engine.
However, in the experience of RG3, it is not the feeling directly speculated by the data, because RG3 has a dense tooth ratio and a smooth power output. The commonly used speed range of is between 4000-7000 rpm. Unless I have to overtake the speed, I rarely use speeds of 8000 rpm or above. Even when I run the mountain, it is still between 6000-7000. Such transmission adjustment brings two advantages. One is that the power is relatively smooth. is not as strong as before when the TC380R had to be powered. The vibration and fuel consumption in the high-turn zone are large. The other is that the fuel consumption control is better than before. From Linyi to Weihai National Highway Provincial Motorcycle brigade is 4.2L/100 kilometers. . I went from Weihai to Linyi and took to Linyi and took highway to the provincial motorcade.
RG3's speedometer and GPS speed are almost exactly the same as those of GPS within 130, and the speed of 6 gears is about 115. The official speed of this car is 155. I didn’t try to pull the speed on the road, nor did I try to ride at high speeds. On the one hand, the power output and speed of 6000-8000 have basically met the needs of my motorcycle. Another thing is that When the speed reaches 8000, the vibration of the whole vehicle is still too high. What’s strange is that the vibration on the hands is not obvious, and the feeling of the foot and butt is more.
. Comfort
Before riding RG3 in Chongqing, I still felt that my riding posture was slightly forward. The chariot teacher adjusted the position of the RG3 handlebars. I rode up and sat upright, and the comfort of the long-distance has been improved. I personally recommend that riders can turn the RG3 handlebars higher, especially those with not too long arms, which can improve comfort. The pedal position is moderate, taking into account both sports and travel, and the leg space is relatively relaxed. From the perspective of the cycling triangle, RG3's comfort is still good.
There are car friends who have reported that the seat cushion of RG3 is relatively hard. In fact, the softness and hardness of the seat cushion is good. It feels hard mainly because the rear shock absorber rebounds are fast, and the road bumps are transmitted more obvious. However, if you only use the vehicle-access tool, there is almost no way to adjust the rear shock absorber damping , because the position of the damping knob is not unfavorable to the operating tool . The design of this place will be deducted points.
mentioned the vibration performance of the whole vehicle earlier. If used at the common speed range of 4000-7000, the vibration suppression of the whole vehicle is still good, but if you want to maintain a speed of 8000 or above, the vibration experience is not friendly. Therefore, if riding style is too radical, it may not be suitable.
The chariot teacher changed the windshield, mainly changing the shape of both sides and increasing the diversion effect. The experience will be better than before. However, I experienced riding on the highway for more than 5 hours in a row, and I felt that the height of the windshield can be increased by . Of course, this is also related to everyone's height, and it varies from person to person. Having a strong windshield is really too effective for long-distance riding.
Right, The headlights of this car should be praised . The paving effect at night in is great, and the tangent of the high and low beams is also obvious. What is the key? The car opposite takes you seriously. It is really good that the original factory can have such an effect.
. Sportiness
Before I rode the RG3 into the mountains, I had no expectations for the sports ability of this car. First, the power output is not as high-pitched and intense as the sports model, and second, the comfortable riding posture will not make people have a strong desire to run the mountain. The third 215kg curb mass is still more important for this level of models.
When we arrived at the ramp road in Weihai, the fat tiger was riding RG3. The 21-year-old man was about to press the age when he saw a curve. He was so handsome that he was pedaling his feet and was shining his sparks and lightning all the way.Fat Tiger's evaluation of this car is easy to ride, and it feels very comfortable in the curve. I tried a few turns, but I didn't feel as strong as him. I think it was probably because I was over the age of being in love with the curve and was Buddhist.
However, in Weihai, I still found some passion for running mountains. The road there is so good, there are few cars, the road surface is clean, the environment is beautiful, you can enjoy the scenery leisurely, or you can passionately break the bend. Although the curb weight is slightly heavier, when turning and turning, st, it is light and easy to control. It is not difficult to turn over continuously. The stability in the curve is also quite good. The chariot teacher changed to Tengsen's high-grabbing tires. This set of tires performed very well, refreshing my understanding of Tengsen, and it has a good driving pleasure when running in the mountains.
However, RG3 is still more comfortable to travel overall. If you want to drive with more intense intensity, the braking of the front brake of is still almost the same. The main reason is that the brake feels soft, and the braking force of brake calipers still has; if it is a curve on the uphill, you can also feel the impact of the weight on the speed increase when you go out of the corner.
Personally, I feel that RG3 is still a model that is more comfortable and has a certain sporty ability. If it is allocated in a less rigorous way, the ratio of to be practical and comfortable and sporty passion is about 6:4.
: Summary
I won't say much about appearance, parameters and configuration. The content of other media is very detailed, and the configuration of RG3 is indeed relatively high. Just summarize it from the 1500-kilometer riding experience: the advantages of
RG3: the power output of is smooth, the sliding clutch experience is good, the fuel tank is large and the range is long, the riding triangle is comfortable, the control is lighter, and the original headlights are good; the disadvantages of
RG3: the rear shock absorption damping adjustment is inconvenient, and the rebound is fast in the original state; the wind resistance protection effect of the windshield is average; the front brake feels soft; the curb weight is slightly heavier.
For RG3 owners, I suggest that these aspects can be adjusted in turn: replace high-performance tires, adjust handle height appropriately, replace windshield with a larger area, adjust rear shock absorption and damping, adjust front brake handle or pump
Part 2: Which type of car friends are suitable for?
I met an RG3 owner from Beijing on Douyin, who was the first RG3 users. I'm curious why he still chose RG3 when everyone is saying that he doesn't buy a Honda 400?
This is our chat history
can be seen that the car owner has a clear real need for himself, and there is no blind obedience to follow others. This is really rare in the current car-playing environment. CB400F/CB400X is indeed a good car, , but is it really more suitable for him? I have to ask myself, I told a joke before, that the saddest thing about playing a car is to buy a car that others like.
Based on my personal cycling experience, I think RG3 is suitable for this requirement:
. I hope the vehicle is full and has requirements for the appearance; 2. I hope the riding posture is more comfortable; 3. I have the needs of motorcycles, but I basically won’t deliberately run bad roads; 4. Although it is possible to run mountains, the driving style is generally mild; 5. The battery life requirements are relatively high.
So I will say so much about RG3's riding experience. I hope that all riders can choose the suitable car according to their own needs.
Test drive experience video
Tell me something off topic. The development of Saikelong can be divided into two stages. The first stage is before RT3, which is an initiation stage of exploration. Starting from RT3, Saikelong has strengthened cooperation with the international motorcycle field, and the development of products has also entered a new stage. RE3, RG3 and RX6 have integrated international motorcycle industry resources. The sales of RE3\RT3 prove that these two cars have been recognized by the market. The comprehensive experience of RG3 is also quite good. From these cars, you can feel that Saikelong has found the right direction and figured out the way in car manufacturing.
is actually not only Saikelong, but I also feel this way in several other companies in Chongqing. seems that motorcycle manufacturers in the Chongqing sector have opened the door to enlightenment at the same time. has a huge change from being behind closed doors to now building cars for the market and car owners. The Chongqing sector has a deep foundation in manufacturing and technology. If the direction is right, it will burst out with great energy.
Finally, I recommend Weihai, which is indeed a good place for riding motorcycles. The sea water is clear, the beach is soft, the scenery is beautiful, the temperature is not high, There are also many internet celebrity check-in points where beauties often appear, Huanhai Road and Likou Mountain are even better places to ride.
