      Price : Sits comfortable between the RC390 and the Ninja 650 : 4 lacs ex showroom.

      Learnt it from a very reliable insider
      & for a second I thought-
      "Holy Shit[emoji33] now we can get a Bajaj Pulsar1200cc too, as RC8 will be built in Chakan[emoji13]"
      & a huge LOL on saree gaurd+MRFs[emoji23][emoji23]

        Awesome for a 125cc, think about the 200 and the 390.. hope these bikes don't go into the wrong hands

        that is a serious concern to look out for..

                According to the below link, what is the meaning of A2 License.? Is there anything like that in india? My actual and internal question is, do we need any special license to drive the RC390?

                  No. In india there is no special licence needed.
                  FYI- The A2 licence etc is for european countries which differentiates age and the capacity of bike u can ride. More info on google/wiki.


                  Btw, in the rc8r faking news, "saree guard is done in tasteful orange" really cracked me up

                            The Cochin KTM Showroom guys said the RC's were coming in Oct end this year, but they have started taking bookings (Rs.10,000/-) in the name of Duke which can later be changed to RC. No clue about the final price though.

                                RC200 and 390 launch on 9th September

                                Source: KTM RC 200, RC 390 Launch Next Month | Bike India

                                ABS as standard, so the price will be in the region of
                                Rs 1.80 lakh (on road, Pune). We are yet to confirm if ABS is optional.
                                The RC 390 brings the larger 373.2cc four-valve single-cylinder motor with 43.5 PS at 9,000 RPM with 35 Nm coming in at 7,000 RPM. The 390 will weigh just 147 kg dry. With standard ABS, the
                                RC 390 should retail for about Rs 2.30 lakh.
