How modifiable will the KTM RC 490 be for track use?
As a potential platform for modifications, the KTM RC 490 has peaked the interest of track day enthusiasts and amateur racers in particular. The talk is about how easy the bike can be converted for serious track use—suspension upgrades, engine tuning, and aftermarket parts availability. That's what some riders are excited about, the possibility of a lightweight, powerful machine that could be a formidable track weapon with the right mods. Some are nervous about possible frame rigidity or electronic systems issues that could restrict more extensive changes. And there is debate about whether KTM will provide factory racing kits or whether there will be a place for third-party manufacturers to fill the void.
It's gonna be a tuner’s dream either way if it's anything like other KTMs. This will be expected to have tons of aftermarket support.
