    talking about the mrf's earlier, we seem to have forgotten the elusive mrf revz c1's (against the revz c's that the 200's are shod with)
    I think all this time I have been talking about MRF Revz C1 & FC1. Also, RC 200 was shod with these tyres from day one, correct me if I'm wrong. MRF Revz FC1 (front) gives enormous confidence and feedback, thanks to heavy front but the rear is not that good in confidence inspiring and prone to puncture.

      The pirelli diablo rossos cost 16k a set,I'll probably upgrade to those once my mrfs run out.

        the 200's (rc and duke) came with the revz c not the c1 . The c1 was introduced much later and one of the significant difference between the c and c1's is their speed rating. The c1 can be safely used on the 390's while the c was restricted due to its lower speed rating.

          The KTM website shows a new colour for rc200.
          Will it come in India?

            99% chance it will come. It was on KTM website for 3-4 hours 2 days ago. It also gets abs.

            Here is a link for new color of rc200:-

            SIDE NOTE- If there is ********** in the link, replace it with the words bike advice but without any space between the words bike advice.

              Personally i don't like the new color scheme.

              Well with abs,the bike will surely attract more people.

              Totally agree with you ! Never comfortable with the stock rear tyre.

                Even I saw the new rc 200 with the white and orange colour on the ktm india site and I like it . It was there for some hours I guess, but now they have removed it and has a pic of the old bike. Surprisingly the new specs are unchanged. So i am doubtful if we will get the new colour soon. But the new rc 200 is still on display on the thailand page ( I didn't rest of the locations).
                I was willing to buy that (the new one) by march but if it doesn't reach the showrooms fast i will have to settle with the old colour.

                Is there any news about the new bikes??

                UPDATE: There are two new ktm rc 200 on the ktm india site. They are tagged as ktm rc200 2016 city performance and daily racing. Check it out people.

                    So 200rc wil have abs in India?are you sure.
                    I highly doubt because that would leave only duke 200 without abs!

                        That's how its mentioned in the official site. We have to confirm with the dealerships regarding that.

                        Without confirmation nothing is certain,like the RC125 details being displayed in KTM Official India site and City Performance model displaued amd disappearing randomly. Lol![emoji23]

                          Nah! It disappeared again LOL! except for the color scheme I mean the stickering I think it makes a slightly better option over the present RC200 in sense of practical usage.

                              I think it will launch in India because all 200 and 390 series bikes are manufactured in India. And I dont see any reason not to launch it in Indian market.

                                The price is the reason why they don't launch in India
