How does the KTM 1190 RC8 R perform on the street and on the track?
The KTM 1190 RC8 R was a high-performance superbike aimed at tackling both the racetrack and public road. This dual-purpose design philosophy brings with it unique challenges and trade-offs. The bike's engine is powerful, the suspension is advanced, and the design has been perfected for aerodynamics, all with the intention of competitive performance on the track. But the same features could also make the bike a tough one to ride on public streets, and raise questions about comfort, practicality, and ease of use in everyday traffic situations. A topic of much banter among sportbike aficionados is the balance between track prowess and street usability, although some are willing to sacrifice street usability for outright performance, while others prefer a more all-around machine.
On the track, it's a beast. It's a beast... on the street, but it has to be tamed.
