Those who expect the Yamaha R7 to be a half-hearted solution will be surprised at how well-balanced the little supersports bike is. Of course, the engine with just over 70 hp doesn't have what it takes to challenge the R6, for example, but the engine with its punch from below fits the character perfectly. The chassis components are of high quality, even fully adjustable at the front, and the handling of the slim grenade is absolutely awesome. The seating position is fine, not as radical as on a real super sports bike, and therefore suitable for everyday use.

If you can afford to pay around 8,500 euros (Germany) or just under 9,000 euros (Austria) for the RC390 R and then have around 11,000 flakes left over for the SSP 300 kit, you will get world championship-ready racing goods. "Ready to Race", the name says it all, really. In this case, "Ready to win the World Championship" would almost be more accurate, because the parts kit is actually so complete and complies with the FIM regulations. KTM is doing everything it can to accommodate all those who are considering a serious entry into the racing world, especially of course all the young hopefuls out there. KTM Customer Racing, I pull my helmet! Bravo!

Never before has it been easier to get hold of a World Championship-ready racing machine.

The realisation that I will probably not become a gifted ring rider.
