The power of the 450 comes on relatively hard. The KTM's turn-in behaviour into a bend or a gentle hairpin bend is unbeatable. On the other hand, the agile agility seems to come at the expense of stability.

Perfect "ready to race" line

noble, digital speedometer

agile handling.

Relatively nervous handling for beginners.

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.
