KTM RC 390 2022

KTM RC 390 2022

The KTM RC 390 presents itself as a sporty and dynamic bike that is particularly suitable for riders looking for an agile and manoeuvrable machine. Its fully adjustable suspension and low weight ensure precise and easy handling, while the comprehensive electronics package, including the innovative supermoto ABS, offers additional safety and riding pleasure. The engine, on the other hand, shows weaknesses in power delivery, especially at low revs, which is not what you would expect from a single-cylinder engine. The aggressive riding position is a double-edged sword: it enables a sporty riding experience, but can be uncomfortable for longer rides.

Those who focus on good lap times will not find the CBR 1000 RR the best partner in the field. Those who simply want to ride nice laps around the ring or on the country road will still have fun with it. It rides heart-stoppingly, looks great and gives you a lot of feeling for the rear wheel. At the regulars' table, Honda fans can at least score points with Marquez's victories, but they won't be able to come up with the Fireblade's fabulous performance figures or lap records.
