KTM 1190 RC8 R 2015

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2015

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.
