Pros and Cons in comparison

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2013

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.

KTM 1190 RC8 R 2009

Not only in the rain do you enjoy the virtues; the great seating position and the high riding comfort - apart from the vibrations. But here the new R became a little quieter, the engineers worked meticulously on the crankshaft and the RC8 R now tingles much less in the hands.

Optimal chassis

great braking

improved shiftability

positive ergonomics

powerful engine

direct and agile.

Brake dosing

poor splash protection on rear wheel

poor stability during setup.
