Is KTM RC 200 comfortable for people with back pain?
02 January 2023 06:47
The bike has got an aggressive seating position and the pillion seat is not at all good except that it is attractive. The bike is not comfortable for daily rides and forget about touring it would just tire you within a couple of hours. And in case of back pain the consequences would be just worst for you.
My height is 5.7. Is it comfortable for me to ride the KTM RC 200? And is the light weight alloy wheel of RC safe?
02 January 2023 06:46
You would not be that comfortable in riding the KTM RC200 but it won't be even difficult for you to adapt to the seat height and handling of the motorcycle in the traffic. The lightweight alloy wheels on KTM bikes are made up of excellent metallic compounds but are actually not made to resist the potholes and sudden high speed jerks. The suspension on the other hand again has limited travel and riding the bike on rough roads can increase the chances of accident due to some stone bouncing off.
Can I fit handle bar raisers to the the new KTM RC390?
02 January 2023 06:46
If you have shifted from a commuter bike to a sporty bike then you might be experiencing pain and stretch in the wrists. And may be that's why you have come up with this question. But don't worry the pain will ease away within few weeks as you will get used to aggressive riding posture. Avoid tight gripping of the bike. And if this doesn't help the you can go for handle bar raisers. You would need adapters machined with a taper and a few bolt holes to fit them along the bars.

Moreover, HYOSUNG GT250R is heavier and much more expensive than KTM RC 200. Therefore, go for KTM RC 200 if you are deciding between the two.
How much weight can KTM RC 200 carry?
02 January 2023 06:44
KTM RC200 can easily accommodate two full sized adults who may weigh anything between 120 to 180 kg. The bike has no such problem with this weight and when it comes to performance, more the weight on the bike, the less likely is it to respond quickly. The engine on the RC200 is a 199.5 cc, liquid cooled and fuel injected unit producing 25 HP and 19.2 Nm of torque. It comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox and costs INR 1,69,000 (ex-showroom Delhi).
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.
Which one is the best - Royal Enfield Classic 350 or KTM RC 200 or Bajaj Pulsar RS200?
02 January 2023 06:44
All of three of them are great choice. Your final selection should depend on what you're looking in a motorcycle. If you are looking for performance, handling and riding dynamics, go for the KTM RC. It is leagues ahead of the other two. If you want ABS, fuel economy, and practicality, the RS200 will be the ideal choice. Coming to Royal Enfield, it's a different machine altogether; it is less about speed, mileage and practicality and more about attitude and personality. Test drive all three of them, and choose the one you like the most.

Why KTM RC 200 does not have an ABS braking system?
02 January 2023 06:39
KTM RC200 is offered without an ABS system in order to cut down the cost and present it as an effective motorcycle when seen from the price tag. If the company offers ABS and the same Metzeler tyres on the RC200, it would cost around INR 30,000 more than the current price. The new price would be INR 1,99,000 while the RC 390 is again priced very near to the same at INR 2,14,000. This would not let the 200 cc motorcycle sell with good numbers as INR 15,000 can bring nearly double powered engine to the same motorcycle.
