5 interesting things that make the KTM RC 200/390 special..

The recently unviled KTM RC 125/200/390 has managed to grab everyone's attention. Needless to say the styling on it is aggressive, in your face and pure KTM. The performance with its KTM 125/200/390 Duke derived engines will definitely be equally exciting. Posted below are 5 interesting things that make the RC 125/200/390 stand out.

[1] The rear seat on the KTM RC 125/200/390 is designed to look like a single seater:

The foam of the rear seat of the KTM RC 125/200/390 comes from a supplier in Canada and which is the only one supplying this stuff. What makes it special is that the special seat foam gives the rear seat the look of a rear seat cover/cowl..!! So the RC 125/200/390 will always look a single seater.. Super Cool..!!

[2] The LED Pilot Lamps on the KTM RC 125/200/390:

The head lamps on the RC 125/200/390 is a bit too extreme for some to digest. Personally I love it. The bike will be half interesting without those dual projector lamps. But it is the position of those LED pilot lamps which is really wicked. Just have a look at the photo and video posted below.

[3] The Front Turn Indicators:

The Front Turn Indicators on the KTM RC 125/200/390 are integrated with the Rear View Mirrors. Benefit? Forget about the "aerodynamics" being stated on the official KTM website. But the real benefit apart from looking cool is that in case of a fall there won't be chances of the front turn indicators being broken anymore..!!

[4] The Frame of the KTM RC 125/200/390 is different from that of the 125/200/390 Duke:

The frame has been modified to better fit the supersport ergonomics and dynamics. Changes include in the steering head, a shorter wheelbase, taller seat height and increased ground clearance. All these modifications have resulted in a quick and agile handling over the 125/200/390 Duke.

[5] The triple clamps on the KTM RC 125/200/390 are made of forged aluminium:

Forging makes the metal parts stronger compared to normal casting. The handlebar triple clamp on the RC 125/200/390 is made of forged aluminium. This along with the low clip ons give a supersport riding feel and stance.
