I'm not a huge fan of large capacity sports bikes, but I have to admit that I am rather taken by KTM's new baby........
I recon it's going to be quite tasty, and I really like the looks. Biggest thing for me though is the V twin engine hmmmmmm Tempted, very, very tempted - but could not afford one |

I'll go halves with you, then I'll have it for the first 2 years, you can have it for the two years after that?

I don't like it so much.
Too much fairing, too large a surface area compared to the back seat unit of the bike, which is MotoGP tiny... Too big at the front, too small at the rear, looks out of proportion. But other than that ![]() ![]() |

Cant say I am too keen on the looks - but then again all the 2008 litre sports bikes look odd to me
![]() Best looking 08 sportsbike for me is the CBR600RR as its not too crazy looking... Wouldnt say no to any of them though! ![]()

There was a great quote from a bike designer who described the RC8 as what you'd get if you gave a designer a brief to build a bike for Batman.

I love the RC8.. If I'm minted in a few years I'll have one, along with an SP2..
I'm definitely a v-twin person.. ![]() The orange RC8 looks a bit funny, the colours don't all quite match because of several different surfaces. It looks feckin great in white though. |
