Thanks to innovative solutions and meticulous detail work, KTM has achieved unsurpassed ride-ability on the street, on the racetrack, and in any riding situation. The 1190 RC8 is sharper and lighter than anything that thinks it has a chance in competing.

At the very heart of the 1190 RC8 is the completely newly developed super sporty two-cylinder based on the well known LC8 range of engines, with a top performance of 155 hp and a maximum amount of torque of 120 Nm that delivers an overwhelming amount of power to the rider. A unique light tubular steel frame, highest quality suspension and brake components and unusual technical solutions such as the exhaust positioned under the bike complete the 1190 RC8, which weighs just 200 kg fully tanked. The result is a Super-bike that truly lives up to its name in every sense of the word.

KTM also takes a new direction in the bike’s appearance. The concept of integrating high quality technology into the bike in a purist and very visible way. As a genuine KTM, the 1190 RC8 also exhibits its pure motor racing DNA even from a distance. The new KTM Super-bike, available in both color variations of orange/black and white/black will be available in March 2008, just in time for the start of the new motorcycle season.
