According to Motorcyclenews tester Trevor Franklin, the new KTM RC8 R is the best sports bike on the market.
Compared to the smaller RC8, the engine is more powerful with 1195cc and 170hp.
The R version is also lighter in weight, with marchesini wheels, with suspension elements that can be used on the track as well.
