The KTM RC8 is no slouch but compared to an inline 4 cylinder sport bike, it just doesn't have the top end. Overall pretty fun and performance could be different on a track.

The RC8 and the RC8R are great looking bikes and made for the track but get left behind by modern liter bikes.

Your opinion is invalid because you call them “leader bikes”. 🤦🏻‍♂️

@big_mon1 2 месяца назад

@@sk7097my opinion is extremely valid because I actually own an RC8R as well as a BMW S1K and not 1 but 2 Hayabusas. You might want to check my resume before you run your mouth.

@@big_mon1i did check your resume, & your full of shit 💩 Everyone has “everything” in RU-vid comments, If you really owned those bikes, You wouldn’t be calling them “ Leader” bikes 😅 Someone who spends $80,000 on 4 motorcycles, knows motorcycles….

@@big_mon1 I think his point is that it's "Liter Bikes"......not Leader. Liter....as in 1000cc capacity equals a liter.

For a track focused bike I'd say it's pretty impressive. It does have larger displacement tho and less power but it's torque for the track. (I know the other bikes are track purpose but the ktm is solely track oriented)

@itsmeericb 9 месяцев назад

Yes I would definitely use this bike only for track. It’s not much of a road bike. I had a blast at the track when I took it!

There is no comparison in these bikes. The RC8R is the BIG DOG!! From a 60+ MPH roll and taking all the skill out of it, the big inline 4's are going to win every time. From a dig, or on a track it is going to the rider all day long!! But good luck finding one of these RC8's. They have always been few and far between, but you can't hardly find one anymore. I have yet to see one on the road where I live, except mine of course.

@itsmeericb 5 месяцев назад

Yeah mine and butter guy in my neighborhood were the only guys in town with one. I ended up selling mine for a Ducati. lol

When you tune the RC 8 it becomes a god bike ! Over 200 hp and over 100fp of torque. They kill just about anything!

@cwsosby 2 дня назад

@@John-j8g I would love to have it tuned, but these kids at the KTM dealership here haven’t a clue about that bike and I don’t know anyone else that does 🤷🏻‍♂️

@gaurrravvv 5 дней назад

you are in low rpm , and the rpms in the r1 are higher that why it bumps forward when they accelerate , keep it in higher revs you'll win for sure

Ese rc8 se queda corto pero es entendible las nuevas bicicletas son mas potetntes y traen mas tecnología esperemos que ktm saque un 1290 pero deportivo saludos
