Written on: 29/04/2010

The KTM RC8 is the only competition to Ducati's dominance of the 1200 twin class. I love sport twins, and since the loss of Honda and Suzuki as manufacturers, alternatives to the dukes are few and far between.

The RC8 is AWESOME, but if you want a bike that's very easy to ride then buy a Honda!
This bike will show you how good a rider you really are and you may not like what it tells you. I also have K6 750 which I can ride fast, The RC8 lets you know when you should brake, shouldn't break! should accelerate... so on an so forth.. I think it's making me a better rider! (read more)

The KTM RC8 is a wonderful bike, let down by a poor gear box, first gear makes the biggest "clunk" ever and the fuel injection at low speeds is very very poor. Moving at limited throttle in first is impossible.

Picked the KTM RC8 over the Ducati 1098(s) that had had my eyes on for a while. RC8 is a lot on the better street and and easier to ride fast on track and costs less. (read more)
