      Well honestly unless you're a fan of the redline. The 390 is a more relaxed ride with enough punch to brek through walls +ABS bro. An added bonus

              I was just wondering.. Since I won't be getting any barends for the 200, why not make good use out of it..??

              bar end ktm mirror | eBay

              I cannot see my rear unless I'm on racing position & lying on my tank.. will those come handy if you are sitting normally??

              Just on one side.. right side.. both sides will look ugly!!

                  Not sure.. but what I found out was that you cannot see your rear with those mirrors if you are riding straight, it would look stupid if you drive slow and are lying on top of the tank like a racer.. these if small will prove to be worthy as people here will drive like crazy and you won't know who would hit you from your back!!

                          The deliveries for RC 200 will be late as most showrooms have not yet recieved display bikes. RC 390 test ride bikes are yet to show up in most showrooms and some lack even display pieces. And company is focused on the most booked bike which currently still is the RC 390. However the RC 390 deliveries should start in another week or so as lots of bookings have been made but only lucky few will recieve their bikes from first lot as I am sure the company wants to do post sale test to see if any problems arise. I got this from the ktm guys.

                            In pune we have both RC390 and RC200 on display......They even have RC200 for test ride ..

                            I took test ride of both last Sunday...I should say that RC200 is little lighter compared to RC390.

                            Secondly I think People who have booked RC200 will get bike earlier as there are less booking for the same.

                            I was told 60 to 90 days but while booking it was said 6 weeks.

                              What is your take on RC 390? can it be used in day to day riding without breaking back?
                              If remember correctly i saw a 1:13.5 (Kari) in a recent post by Apex Racing on FB.

                                Pune is a hub for all bike manufacturers and as such all testing and post sale testing is done there. So in Pune the customers get bikes first. Even pulsar 220 when first launched was first sold in Pune then in the main metros and then all over India so honestly I am not suprised. But in other parts of India there aren't display pieces in some cases.
