Just two days ago, we showed you the leaked images of upcoming KTM RC 390, and now here are the pictures of the production version of KTM RC 200 and RC 125. All the three bikes are almost similar in size and shape, as all the bikes are made on similar space tubular frame. However, the bike are distinct by their paint schemes, just like the entry level naked bikes of the company.
The bikes look quite good from the side, thanks to its full size fairing with racing feel on its muscular fuel tank. Given at the front are two round headlamps in a cave like front fairing, which has helped the bikes look pretty fascinating, but we can't say that how it will look in the real. Rear of the bike is inspired by the full size racing machine RC8 R, which will look fantastic for sure. All the bike will come with an underbelly exhaust.
All the bikes will share the same upside down telescopic forks at the front and WP mono-shock suspension at the rear. Entry level racing machines of the bike share the front and rear disk brakes, tyres and 10 spoke alloy wheels with the entry level Dukes of the company. The bikes will weight around 6-8kg more than their respective sibling Dukes, due to the extra fairing on the bike.
KTM RC 200 will come with a 199.5cc, single cylinder, 4-stroke, liquid cooled, 4-valve engine, which will churn out a maximum power of 25hp. The bike is expected to be achieved a maximum speed of at least 140kmph.
KTM RC 125 will be powered by a 125cc, single cylinder, 4-stroke, liquid cooled, 4-valve engine. Maximum power of the bike will be 15hp and top speed is expected to be 120kmph.
Both the bikes will come with a 6 speed claw shifted gearbox and use a force oil system for the engine lubrication.
KTM RC 390 and 200 are expected to be launched in India next year, while the RC 125 will be launched in the European market like Duke 125. In European market, it will give a tough competition to Yamaha YZF R125 and Aprilia RS 125.
