I am 6 feet tall, which one should I buy – Harley-Davidson Street 750 or KTM RC 390?
02 January 2023 06:44
Both the bikes are excellent performers and define an affordable way of maintaining performance as well as the brand name. KTM RC390 is the most value for money performance bike of India as no other machine at just INR 2,14,000 would bring a 0-100 kmph sprint time of 5.7 seconds. It comes with a single cylinder 373.2 cc engine while on the other hand, no other Harley Davidson or similar capacity bike can be bought for INR 4,69,000. The 750 cc, twin cylinder motor produces 59 Nm of torque and sprints from 0-100 kmph in just 6.15 seconds. The 229 kg cruiser versus the 166 kg supersport machine is a tough decision but the only factor that can help you in choosing one is your budget and preferred riding style. I would suggest you to keep your Classic Chrome with you and then buy the RC390 as it would bring both the cruiser and supersport team to your garage.

Launch Date of KTM RC 390 (2016 upgraded model)?
02 January 2023 06:37
The 2016 KTM RC390 has been launched in India on 10 February, 2016. The bike gets a new slipper clutch, and an always “on” headlight. However, it has missed out on some features available in the European market such as a bigger front disc, a ride-by-wire system and a canister exhaust. The bike's price has remained unchanged at INR 2,13,504 (ex-showroom, Delhi).
Coming to comfort, the bike isn't ideal for daily driving. Firstly because city drives crowded with traffic jams, and the RC390 absolutely hates this, it heats up like crazy. Secondly, the riding position is very aggressive, and the pillion seat is a little uncomfortable. The RC390 is a machine built for the tracks, so unless you're completely mad about the bike, don't use it as a daily commuter.

Can KTM RC 390 hit a top speed of 210 kmph after making some modifications?
02 January 2023 06:34
The KTM RC390 can hit a top speed of 210 kmph with the modifications related to its weight reduction and track oriented part exchanges. Firstly, the bike needs to shed some weight, which is done by removing all the additional parts required for a road legal motorcycle. This includes rear foot rests, mirrors, headlights, mudguards and many of the parts are replaced with lighter carbon fiber parts. The heavy exhaust system is also replaced with a free flow exhaust and rest is done through modifications of the ECU, increasing some red-line limit if possible. These modifications are not possible on a real life road as many parts are illegal and track based only.

Yamaha YZF-R3 vs. KTM RC 390?
02 January 2023 06:30
Considering all the aspects of motorbiking, the KTM RC390 would be a better option than Yamaha R3. The strongest factor for this would be the price tag, which sees a difference of INR 1.10 lakh in both the bikes. KTM RC390 produces more power from its single cylinder 373.2 cc motor, making out 43 BHP and 35 NM of torque. It comes with ABS for both wheels and dual projector headlamps, making it a better choice than the R3. Also, it comes with USD forks instead on conventional ones on the R3. On the other hand, R3 has a twin cylinder motor, making it good for long rides and comes with a bigger fuel tank also. I would suggest KTM RC390 as your new bike.

Which one is more powerful and has better top speed - Hyosung GT250R or KTM RC 390?
02 January 2023 06:26
The sure shot race winner would be the KTM RC 390. The GT250R is a twin cylinder motorcycle, but its under powered engine would not make it close to the power of the RC 390. KTM powers the bike with a single cylinder 373.2 cc engine producing 43 BHP @ 9000 rpm and 35 NM @ 7000 rpm. The machine performs exceptional due to its lightweight body and aerodynamically efficient design. It comes with ABS on both the wheels, making it more safe to brake on uneven roads. The bike touches the 100 kmph mark in 5.70 seconds only. It comes with a race inspired seating position, making the rider more comfortable on the speeding times. It comes with a price tag of INR 2,12,000.

Which one is more powerful and has better top speed - Hyosung GT250R or KTM RC 390?
02 January 2023 06:26
RC390 hands down, though the former looks better in my opinion, the build and plastic quality of the KTM is worse than the other. Bottom Line: I'd still buy the KTM hands down as it's the most VFM but only for racing or the occasional canyon carving. For daily use choose the other one.
Which one is better - KTM RC 390, RC 200 or Honda CBR250R?
02 January 2023 06:23
If you are into race, super quick and can compensate on long rides then go for RC. RC 390 is hard to drive in city traffic. Whereas CBR250R is a complete package for City riding and touring with ease and comfort. Wait for new updated CBR250R, I am waiting for it too.

It comes with the most powerful engine, producing 43 BHP @ 9000 rpm and 35 NM @ 7000 rpm from its 373.2 cc. single cylinder liquid cooled, fuel injected motor. It comes with the most comfortable race position, making it a good choice to enjoy medium and high speed riding. It even comes superb handling and a very good built quality when compared to all the other bikes in the segment. The only field where it lags behind is mileage, but when such a big boost of power is delivered mileage is surely going to get down from a comfortable value. It return a 25 kmpl mileage, making it the best above all. It comes with a price tag of INR 2,12,000.

Is KTM RC 390 good in all conditions?
02 January 2023 06:17
The KTM RC 390 is a very nice bike, with a performance much better than any super sport bike in the segment. But for all conditions, i would not recommend the RC 390, instead i would suggest you to go for Duke 390. The RC 390 has a lower clearance and with its increased fairing weight, it would not be as suitable as the Duke for the Assam region. The RC 390 would cost around INR 2,30,000 and the Duke 390 would cost INR 2,18,000.
