Pros and Cons in comparison

Unfortunately, our editors did not test this model.

KTM RC 8C 2023

The RC 8C is a riding machine that not only leads professionals to fast lap times, but also puts a grin on the face of the average rider. Light-footed and precise like an elf on rails, it shows its strength particularly on fast-moving and technically demanding courses. Even though the engine has easy play thanks to the low overall weight and performs well at low revs, as a Horsepower-spoilt superbike rider I would like to see it wind out a bit more aggressively. Nevertheless, for most people it will probably be the key to a lot of riding pleasure and fast lap times without any conversion work.
