Re: KTM RC 390 Launch confirmed: xBhp News
Launching the bike with slicks is impractical as they are strictly for track use. They wont even last a few days on Indian roads! The tyres here appear slick cuz of the poor resolution or because the bike has been ridden crazy causing those metzelers to wear off!Originally posted by nadz11.ns View PostGot it
but won't they be puncher magnet. I mean super soft on India roads. 
Absolutely right. Infact the only obvious visual diffrentiation between RC200 and RC390 is the set of tyres.Originally posted by Dukedave View PostI guess they look slick coz of the poor resolution. From what I heard, they will carry the same set of metzeler tyres as on the duke 390.

Re: KTM RC 390 Launch confirmed: xBhp News
Haha.. Same thing is being said for Yamaha for really long now and now look people are drooling over their new product.Originally posted by prateek95 View Postktm should just launch these hot rc twins soon they are starting to loose some potential buyers
So no 'potential' customers has been lost.
Its really good that KTM is taking their time in testing the bike in Indian conditions (its for our own good).
Wait patiently till then.
Ride safe and have fun.

It will come soon. Most spy shots we see show a complete bike and looks like only testing is left (and hopefully will be completed soon).Originally posted by prateek95 View Postthats a good point there but seriously when it is coming.. i am thinking about being the first owner of rc 200 in my city (and xbhp i hope)
Keep the money ready and bang !! Rev the rc
