KTM 1190 RC8 R 2013

Menus

Fine improvements for the orange hypersport in 2013: refined electronic management and a new, more efficient anti-dribble clutch. She waits patiently for the next generation without getting in the way, her chassis being one of the most efficient of the moment.. In 2011, the RC-8R had gained 5 horses and half a mkg of torque in addition, more aggressive colors, the KTM RC8 R emerged from the weight room with new arguments to make. It must be said that her title of German SBK champion 2010 had given her new desires.

That year, Katoche had plunged back into the heart of the 1190 cc to get more watts out. A new crankshaft took place as well as a double ignition. Double advantage: the twin is not only more powerful but also more economical and less polluting. The suspension has been completely revised, with greater comfort for the pilot and more efficiency on the track. The gearbox control has also been improved and a new LED headlight offers a more striking look to the beast. The price of the RC8-R is drastically reduced. However, KTM does not seem to offer a lower quality machine, quite the contrary. But we’re not going to start complaining that a bike is cheaper, especially since it fell by 4,000 euros in the operation. Enough to afford tires and fairings for the entire season. It’s only at the level of the wheels that it bothers a bit – the new cast aluminum rims are heavier, which partly explains the Katoche’s weight gain of 3 kilos..

Its chassis was already formidable, allowing lightning-fast cornering speeds. With this extra potato, Mattighofen’s superbike came dangerously close (for Ducati) to the 1198. The Italian took a big step forward with the 1199 Panigale – more technical, more powerful, and much more expensive. For those only interested in the track, there is always in the catalog a Track version, more powerful, lighter, exclusively intended for the circuit and ready to run..
