The
India version of the KTM RC 200 Gen-2 retains all the above features as in the
international version and comes in with an additional upgrade of all-new full
LED headlamp unit.
Boasting
race-inspired lines and two new colorway swhich clearly define the sporty
character of the KTM RC 200 and KTM RC 125 Gen-2, this redesign has been
purposely undertaken to optimiS the aerodynamic properties due to higher top speeds.
This has been achieved thanks to a computational fluid dynamics design process,
which has reshaped the RC for both style and real-world function.
The
KTM RC Range Gen-2features an all-new chassis - a steel trellis frame with bolt
on subframe, lightweight wheels & brakes. With fully adjustable handlebar
risers, the KTM RC Range combines track day ergonomics and everyday usability
into a refined racing machine.
With
a collection of premium parts in the KTM RC 200 and KTM RC 125 such as a WP APEX
big piston fork in the front and a new WP APEX shock absorber in the rear,
all-new LCD dash display, all-new LED headlamps in the KTM RC 200, all-new
halogen headlamps in the KTM RC 125, new ABS with Supermoto mode makes it class
leading against other Supersport machines in India. All-new larger 13.7-litre
fuel tank provides best in class fuel capacity meaning you can go further,
faster for longer.
KTM
RC range is powered by a state-of-the-art, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder
4-stroke engine with twin overhead camshafts, four valves, and electronic fuel
injection. The new larger airbox allows the KTM RC Range to breathe easier,
providing improved responsiveness and increased torque giving it an impressive
off the line launch putting the KTM RC Range well and truly a head of the pack.
The
new curved radiator ensures superior cooling for the engine. This improves
airflow throughout the engine allowing the KTM RC Range to run cooler, giving
it the optimal performance temperature needed to hit the apex, lap after lap,
or charge through rush-hour traffic.
As
a true sports bike, special care has been taken in improving the overall
ergonomics of the KTM RC Range. For example, the knee area is now ergonomically
developed to allow for more rider movement, being as narrow as possible with
the largest possible contact area.
The
new bodywork is designed for optimized wind and weather protection, enhanced
heat management by using a combination of inner and outer body panels to direct
airflow away from the rider, and not to mention a striking visual presence.
