Love the KTM RC390 but it’s not quite sharp enough for you? Well you’re in luck as KTM have announced the RC390 R—a homologated, limited edition version that’s just a race kit away from Supersport 300 competition.
Limited to just 500 units worldwide, the RC390R has had a multitude of hardware upgrades to make it more suitable for track use. For a start, the R model gets tailor-made fully-adjustable WP suspension as well as a new top yoke and handlebar kit that allows for a more extreme racing position. It also gets folding brake and clutch levers, which flip out of the way in case you go for a trip down the road. The engine hasn’t been left out either, benefitting from a shorter intake trumpet that delivers a slightly wider power band. If this has left you all hot under the collar, then an RC390R can be yours for €8500 (UK pricing tbc). It doesn’t stop there of course—there’s a full blown race kit too!
