@@replynotificationsdisabled A lot of people want the R7. The R6 is one of the most boring bike on road. Riding at 11~13000 rpm at every second is not for everyone and a lot of people want a supersport body position with a bit of medium end torque. Same for the R9 but even better since the engine is such a joy and also because Yamaha did put really good brakes and suspension settings.

The messaging was the problem. Talking about a large displacement faired sport bike being too dangerous for the street while releasing a 1290 super naked for the street was duplicitous at best. It reminds me of other products only being considered dangerous if they had plastic stocks instead of wood stocks (while being the exact same product excluding the stock material in both cases).

What they mean was electronic safety systems that we are getting used to have in any category specially in super bike category, and I'm personally a very big fan of rc8 but basically all the safety system that it had was "ABS" and that's about it (I'm not even sure if it did have traction control or not ) And comparing it to the other competitors and even other more modern ktm bikes that have all the gadgets from wheely control to 6D traction control and ABS systems and etc, it actually was kind of lacking... But a great bike nonetheless and it's gonna be a great future classic in my opinion (and one of the reasons for that is the actual fact that it doesn't have that much electronic gadgets on it and is a more pure driving experience, although lacking an analog tachometer to complete that analog experience to it's best in that that regard !!)

I would agree that years ago KTM had questionable build quality. Nowadays it seems to be a lot better because I had a 2022 890. Rode it as a daily and put 18k miles on it until I decided to try something different and sold it. Had zero issues with the bike doing the maintenance myself. Plenty of aftermarket and oem support that I put on that thing. It's the one bike I really miss having.

Long over due. As a owner of two KTM RC8R bikes. It is great to see the attention the bike gets when people see one for the first time in person. I love the passion of the brand to be dominate. Also a Ducati owner, great to see KTM begin to make some progress with the MotoGP bike. But at some point outside of winning a championship at the highest level, where does all the technology and experience go? Finally the return of the RC8 R brand. It would be nice to see at some point the RC 16 MotoGP replica come to life in the future. My guess that is forth coming as Pedro Acosta continues to do well with the RC16 and when he wins the championship, then will KTM begin to think about making a tribute bike for the KTM enthusiast. I will say Ducati marketing team knows how to feed into the true enthusiast, by making LE and tribute bikes. Don't reinvent the marketing wheel, just making them. They will sale just like the RC 8C bikes. Just give us all options to buy them and not sale out in less than 5 minutes. LOL! Looking forward to 2025 and will be contacting my dealership about getting one. Ready to Race #NEVERSTOP #don'tstopwon'tstop

This is great news. Ducati is currently the only brand still making a proper supersport twin-cylinder with the Panigale V2. Back in the day you had a lot more options, with Aprilia, Ducati, Honda, Suzuki all making this kind of machines. I owned several of them and this kind of bike is the best for sport street riding in my opinion. I imagine this KTM will be a parallel twin though. What makes me more excited is that I can imagine other brands stepping up to compete. Aprilia will likely bump up the displacement of its RS660, and Yamaha could easily release an R9 for a 3-cylinder competitor. Good times if true :)
