            Saw an RC - matt black with no graphics/ branding but with orange rims in HSR, Bangalore. I did not see DRLs (or may be it was day time and hence un-noticeable, but then does not serve its purpose does it :P ). The bike sounded 'normal' - meaning unlike a duke (no offence). It appeared to be compact with the riding stance not be aggressive. Looking forward to this one!

                RC390 it will be, with subtle differences from D390 like different starter coil, plus the radiator fan of RC 390 would work only in 1 direction as opposed to Duke 390's, because the heat will blow out from the fairings.

                At least this is what a reliable source says here in Delhi.

                Cheers

                        Got to know that KTM RC8R would also be launched. Built in Chakan by Bajaj with all components sourced from local vendors, save the steering damper. The tyres would be MRF revZ 190 section specially developed from the RC8R. The saree guard is done in tasteful orange.
                        Price : Sits comfortable between the RC390 and the Ninja 650 : 4 lacs ex showroom.

                        Learnt it from a very reliable insider

                            PS :

                            -Got nothing to do with RC390. But the chassis and straight line stability is worth noting since the frame is common to all RCs I guess

                            -The rider is medium built says the handlebar is comfortable not too agressive

                            - There is mention of MRF Revz tyre(Word Review)...

                              Top speed of RC125 is 125kmph

                              KTM's 15hp RC125 is taken up to its top speed of 125km/h (78mph). We hit 135km/h (84mph) earlier on in the day when there was no headwind.Read our full revie...

                                Check out in the youtube description of video, they have written that they were able to touch 135kmph earlier that day when headwind was lesser and that number is very good for a 125cc
