KTM 1190 RC8 R 2010

Here you really have the feeling of sitting on a real racing machine and drawing a precise line through the landscape. And so, at the end of the tour, euphoria and adrenaline outweigh the beer, despite the KTM's tics. That's the way it is with supersport bikes in the mountains.

Reasonable overall concept

diverse options for coveted customisation - e.g. footrests

seat comfort

high-quality workmanship

sporty chassis.

Engine has too little flywheel mass

only advisable for more experienced motorcyclists.

The RC8 from KTM has matured into a good motorbike. Unfortunately, the maturing process has taken a little too long. The engine characteristics are good, the chassis as well and the bike is great to ride both on the country road and on the race track.

Well-tuned suspension elements

fairly agile

acceptable brakes

positive cornering.

Performance could be higher

primarily designed for country roads.
