Re: KTM RC 390 Launched: xBhp News
Personally, I love it. Being 188 cm, the dukes are too small for me. This is specially evident on the track, where I find it hard to find a proper grip on the tank and impossible to tuck in low down. Too bad I have made a resolution to not buy another single cylinder bike. -

For some, even the R15's riding posture is extreme. But some do 1000+ kms on it.Originally posted by Giftonsamuel View Post
One has to get adjusted to the ride and for those who can't, there are many other options.
and ya, for a 5'5" guy, it might be very extreme.Leave a comment:

Re: KTM RC 390 Launched: xBhp News
Just had glances at superbikes saddle height
R1 830mm
Fblade 820mm
With wide saddle means I can only dream about it riding in the traffic.
Also went through how to lower seat height in some forums suggesting to slice the seat .And I assume that Rc doesn't even have a seat just a black thing .
So for all who are under 5.5 like me this can be just a weekend tool !! Don't dream to have one as a daily ride.

Yep. 50K is way too much. But then, this is Akra we're talking aboutOriginally posted by nadz11.ns View Post₹50k for an exhaust
i would add ₹20k something and buy a 150cc bike instead.. Hehe 
Coming to RC, i too would love ride one of these.
Here's the riding position compared to R15 v2 for a 5'10" guy.

No problem.Originally posted by Giftonsamuel View Post
If you want a normal exhaust, you can install the official KTM powerpart Akrapovic exhaust if you're willing to shell out around 50K. The slight performance bump and bassy sound will be the added benefits as expected. Not sure if it'll be sold in India though.

820mm saddle height? Guess it's a track tool than street/highway ride.
OT: Already R15 v2 is based on track riding position. Now this will be even more aggressive stance.Leave a comment:

Taller than NS :banghead:
So only option for me is to wait for P375 as it has a normal exhaust .

Look at his legs !Originally posted by dishayu View Post
What's the saddle height of Rc series taller than duke?
Hate that underbelly exhaust ! Making me climb a ladder to get on the saddle of NS .
And at parking I wish I had some cranes to help me.
