    Guys so after waiting for almost a decade my second baby arrives. Tho my RC is still gona be used for daily commuting. Any suggestions what should I name her.
    Congrats brother. This is one hell of a machine. You are lucky that you got this version because the newer version look so sick. Is this the carbon or the standard version? My suggestion would be "ARROW" as Oliver queen the arrow rides it too.

      Thanks buddy. Will do the needful to make the KTM distinguished.


      Still guys any idea on vinyl decal printers in chennai?

        I guess KTM in red would look good and readable.

          It's the mat black carbon edition . It's like shelling all your saving out but it's worth it for this baby. Yes I will upgrade it leaving for Italy have been invited to try out the new Ducati monster on the Bologna circuit .

                      If there is going to be an aftermarket on a Ducati, it has to be Termignoni. Nothing else would do on a Ducati.

                            Yeah the main reason I want the 390 is the ABS and Metzler tyres, but majority of users here have recommended the 200, so I think I'll look into that more.
                            What did you mean by the engine is more refined in a 200?
                            let me put it like this rc200 engine temperament is way more judgable it is mad but it is mad through out the rev range more or less giving the impression of a well tuned/tweaked(whatever you wanna call it) engine .
                            having said that it in no way means rc 390 has any problem with its engine its real game lies above 6000 rpm (again showing its bent towards track focussed nature) but question you ask yourself is are you really gonna be keeping it on the boil... always during your commuting

                            i mean man see this is not a hindrance there are ways around this too . get a piggy back system it will totally sort your power delivery ...

                            test ride and decide.

                            ps- vibration on 390 are bit more than 200 naturally..

                                Have any of you installed a pair of bar end mirror and removed the RVMs on your RC 390 (or 200)?
