It’s just been two days since we brought you the pictures of the KTM RC390 and we have another set of pictures. Before we ask you about your take on these bikes- more particularly on the styling- let us take you back to the various reports we had brought you on the faired avatars of the popular KTM Duke right from the horse’s mouth. As long as six months back did KTM CEO Stefan Pierer mention about the faired variants of the KTM Duke making to the Indian shores post the launch in the European Union and the days seem to be nearing quick. Though the KTM RC200 and the KTM RC390 seem probable candidates for an Indian launch, we’re not sure if the KTM RC125 would be available for sale to the Indian Junta- more so from business point of view.
As aforementioned, we have already brought you pictures of the KTM RC390, now it’s time to share first ever pictures of the KTM RC125 and the KTM RC200. So it’s PICTURE START with the KTM RC125 first:
Doesn’t look any different from the KTM RC390 and you can expect the specs of the RC125 to be similar to the KTM 125 Duke with the crazy revving 125cc single cranking out 15 bhp of peak power.
After the RC125, it’s the KTM RC200 and needless to mention again, would share the same underpinnings with the 25 bhp KTM 200 Duke.
Though we have already brought you pictures of the KTM RC390, here‘s a set of the motorcycle to be offered in Racing livery. You may expect the Akrapovics to disappear off the production units. And well, KTM is tempting the tourer in you by showcasing tailbags on the motorcycle.
Do let us know your views on these motorcycles, and more particularly on the KTM RC200 and the KTM RC390 and most important the premium you are willing to pay over the unfaired versions.
And here’s the full bunch of images of the three RC variants.

i like ktm
10-15k more over the naked version is the best deal!
I Have duke 200 but my biggest concern is touring comfort and top end ( speed) . I hope this new RC390 brings the same. Apart from this wanted to check if the pillion can avail better seat, as Pillion seating is really concern on present dukes. I would rather would like to see a 390 pure tour version.

i have a ktm duke 390 booked in kanpur for over three months now (full payment made), they still don't have a clue when gonna deliver (i have suspicion of illegal trade trafficking ), it seems to me i ain't gonna get a duke after all, i will be willing to pay 20k extra for this rc390, not just because its faired, but better aerodynamics, clip-on handle bars, shorter wheelbase and narrower angle of front suspension. it will be much better to smoke some jackass driving ninja 250/300 or cbr 250/300.
