KTM RC 200 Top Speed is around 140 kmph.
KTM RC 200 is undoubtedly a heavily loaded motorcycle of its segment, missing nothing except ABS for a motorcycle of this class. Fans are stunned with its lightning fast performance as only few make their way up to the bigger RC 390 for more power. KTM has priced the RC 200 at INR 1,74,800 and offers the same in just one White/Orange combination.

KTM RC 200 Top Speed & Competing Bikes[/caption]
KTM offers the same sporty frame for RC 200 that is one use on all other versions of RC series. Thus, one can guarantee impressive levels of handling on corners as well as high speed straight rides. The 820mm of seat height allows better riding position and thus, makes it slightly difficult for short riders to handle in heavy traffic.
This makes the fully faired motorcycle good for competition against Pulsar RS200, NS200, 220F, KTM 200 Duke, TVS Apache 200, Yamaha FZ25, Fazer 25, Suzuki Gixxer SF and Yamaha R15. All of these have competitive top speeds while those with engines smaller than 200cc cannot stand against the hard acceleration on offer from KTM RC200.
Disclaimer: We have tried our best to mention the actual top speed of the bikes listed here. The top speed as per the speedometer may vary as error of around 6-9% is seen on most Indian bikes of this segment. For example, Bajaj Pulsar 220F shows 144 kmph on the speedometer but the actual top speed of the bike is around 134 kmph.
