Yes, you read that right, the editor has doubled and dismantled the car again.
Today our protagonist is the 2021 Sai Kelong RX3S. The editor has reduced some less important shell parts from it, making this guy look much more lean and lighter. Given that the editor has not disassembled the old model of the RX3S before, we simply don’t distinguish it from the old model and just use it as a new car to see it.
RX3S uses a high tensile steel pipe with a diameter of 32 mm as the main beam of the frame, and is triangularly welded with a 22 mm diameter steel pipe to form a main frame in the form of a steel pipe braided double-spar. Whether in terms of form or material, the RX3S is consistent with the RZ3S sports street car we removed before in the main frame part. The powerful main frame structure of the inherited sports street car has brought more stable and sharp handling to the RX3S. However, the subframe part has a significant difference in the application scenarios of SUVs and street running, so the subframe of RX3S has a significantly differentiated design from the RZ3S.
RX3S, on the one hand, adopts a more resilient welded integrated subframe structure, which can better buffer the severe bumps in harsh road conditions, because RVs do not need to feedback every road feeling to the driver's butt; on the other hand, the habit of adding three boxes to any car in China also often occurs in some joint venture models. RX3S has added a reinforced structure to the fulcrum of the side box/trunk rack, ensuring a safe response to the common three-box high-load scenarios of SVs from a design perspective. The front shock absorber upper and lower coupling plates of
RX3S are made of aluminum alloy. Although the inverted front shock absorber with a diameter of 41 mm of RX3S fork core is equivalent to many famous larger displacement ADVs in diameter, and has a 21-level preload adjustable function, the activity itinerary has not yet reached the level of a professional adventure car. The RX3S has this powerful frame as the foundation. If you want it to accompany you to see more rare and magnificent views, you can modify it with a stronger shock absorption system. Students who want to modify a stronger shock absorber need to take notes. The upper fixed diameter of the shock absorber is 50.5 mm and the lower fixed diameter is 55 mm.
+ years of experience in manufacturing multi-functional SV vehicle has made the fork core very well protected by the fender, and the mud and dust on the windward surface cannot leave any stains on the fork core. Compared with the common 70 aspect ratio tires, the 110/80-19 Tensen TS-all-terrain tires equipped with RX3S have better cushioning capabilities. Combined with the 19-inch aluminum alloy vacuum spoke wheel hub, the entire driving system has excellently completed the task of transmitting road sense and relieving impact. The impact when passing the speed bump has almost no bumpy feeling on the RX3S, and you can pass it quickly without too much slowdown. The spokes of the wheel set use thick stainless steel spokes with a diameter of 4 mm. Daily maintenance is much simpler than traditional steel spokes, and it has better integrity than the steel spokes hub on the traditional off-road vehicle . When the S-shaped line is changed, the front wheels will not have the common execution action of large-diameter spokes hubs. The direction of the spoke is opposite to the traditional spoke hub. The adjustment end of the spoke tension is concentrated on the hub drum core, so the outdoor emergency replacement of the broken spoke can also be done directly without removing the front wheel and tire.
delayed by tire problems for half a day is a very bad mood in the motorcycle industry. In order to cope with the impact of harsh road conditions in the wild, the RX3S's wheel hub has been specially strengthened. Various emergencies such as broken road bumps and tire treading during the journey can quickly detect tire problems for the RX3S, which has a tire pressure monitoring system, and only a few simple tools and "spicy strips" can be repaired and then continue to move forward.
rear suspension part is a relatively traditional off-road vehicle configuration, using a central multi-link shock absorber mechanism and a steel rear swingarm. What is more unique is that RX3S changed the simple steel connecting rod to a triangular structure, and the extra point is used to install the newly added mid-support configuration.In other words, when the rear wheels are up and down, the mid-support will also move with the swing arm to a certain extent. The editor personally believes that it is better to disassemble the mid-support when riding normally, and install it when doing maintenance or running long distances.
3.5-inch width 17-inch rear wheel hub supports 140/70-17 specification tires. Currently, the range of tires with this specification is quite wide, and even competition tires that purely pursue grip can be installed. The editor really wants to see how the RX3S, which is equipped with a pair of track tires, goes to the racing stadium to reverse the pressure and turn. After all, the frame of this car has enough confidence.
A pair of floating brake discs with a diameter of 310 mm and the radiation-mounted opposite four piston calipers provide the RX3S with a more linear and accurate brake feel, but the smaller 25 mm friction area of the piston and brake pads limits the brake force of the caliper. In this type of SUV that may run bad roads, we do not need the braking force of the track car hitting the wall. After all, the targetedness and limits of tires are in front of us, and it is not an advantage for models like the RX3S. Of course, if you pursue a stronger braking effect, it is not difficult to replace a pair of stronger calipers.
Next, let’s look at the power system. In terms of appearance, the new TC400 engine is not significantly different from the previous TC380. The most obvious change seems to be in the throttle part. The air filter of
RX3S is located directly below the driving position in the middle of the car body. With the consistent high-level exhaust design, it can be judged that RX3S has relatively good wading capabilities.
integrated throttle valve body is one of the biggest advances in the TC400 power platform this time, abandoning the original dual throttle valve and coupling to make the double cylinder intake more synchronous and stable. Unlike many electric injection models that integrate gasoline filter elements into oil pumps, the RX3S places the gasoline filter elements independently and puts them under the fuel tank. Trust me, if you come to a place where refueling is difficult to refuel, you will be very grateful to the car manufacturer for making the gasoline filter separate from the oil pump and making it a quick replacement part.
Let's change our perspective, the laser-printed 401cm³ on the cylinder proves that this is a truly sufficient 400-level engine. When the official release of Sakelon was released, it did not make any statement about the upgrade of the cooling system, but our actual measurements found that the volume of the RX3S heat exchanger was significantly larger, with a dimension of about 34cm wide, 20cm high, 37mm thick, about one-quarter higher than the RZ3S. In addition to the standard Panasonic cooling fan, the new RX3S engine has also added a set of electronically controlled throttle valves to control the circulating flow of the coolant, which more accurately meets the engine's cooling needs and ensures that the TC400 can be in a stable working state at all times. The electrical parts of
RX3S are all concentrated under the seat of the rear passenger. Remove the seat cushion and the protective cover on the surface to perform maintenance and maintenance. Delphi's electronic injection system has been widely used in various models of Saikeron. The ABS system from Saikeron can remain closed when needed. The Saikeron OBD 3.0 intelligent locomotive system provides various services for querying vehicle positioning and remote operation.
includes but is not limited to the gasoline filter element we mentioned earlier. There are many details on the RX3S, which are the results of the early models of Saikelong's car listening to opinions from car owners who love Motorcycle and constantly improving themselves. Under normal conditions, these details may be covered by the shell and other components, and it is also very interesting to find these details during use.
12 Ah battery may be the largest battery capacity among the RX3S models. 150CCA (cold start current value) means that it can emit 150 Ah current for 30 seconds at a low temperature close to minus 18℃. The greater capacity and discharge capacity ensure the excellent start-up performance of the RX3S.
The dual-hook point design of high-level exhaust makes the connection of high-level exhaust more stable. The embarrassing incident like a car owner with a certain brand of ADV runs and disappears while the exhaust pipe disappears. It seems that it is impossible for him to appear on the Sykolong RX3S.
After removing the covers on both sides, the RX3S fuel tank looks a bit slender on the body. The editor doesn’t look like it has a 20-liter look. After removing the fuel tank, it was discovered that the exposed one was only the upper part of the fuel tank, plus the part blocked by the frame, and the 20-liter volume was quite solid. The bottom of the protective rod of
RX3S, the designer reserved an M8 thread on both sides. A very basic anti-fall modification can give the owner an extra foot rest, so that the RX3S can even have a comfortable sitting position like an American cruise during long journeys. After dismantling the RX3S like this, the editor wondered if a small round headlight was installed on the RX3S, would it be possible to create a new American cruise ADV-style model?
Overall, the RX3S is a relatively complete professional SUV model in terms of body hardware conditions. Thanks to the excellent operating quality of the TC400 engine and the support of the steel pipe braided double-wing spar frame, it has better handling characteristics among other models of the same type. Years of continuous design experience have allowed Saikelong to know where domestic riders who run long-distance motorcycles have real needs for their partners on the journey. Excellent handling, excellent power, super long battery life and comfortable sitting posture can all be met. However, people's hearts are always fickle and greedy. At a time when ADV motorcycle models of various brands are blooming, the next goal of RX3S is lighter and able to "death" on more extreme terrains.
