The Austria-based bike creator has revealed the KTM RC 125 in India at Rs 1.47 lakh. At this value, the RC 125 is around Rs 43,000 more affordable than the KTM RC 200 and Rs 8,000 pricier than the KTM 125 Duke.
Plan of the KTM RC 125 has been enlivened by the organization’s MotoGP racing bike – KTM RC16. A few its styling bits incorporate twin projector headlamps with DRLs (daytime running lights), a triple clip handlebar, a computerized instrument comfort and topsy turvy forks by WP.
Here are the significant certainties you have to think about the new bike:
Features: It Gets Top Specification Parts.
KTM has a skill of sharing top-spec segments among its motorbikes. With that impact, the RC 125 offers its underpinnings with the bigger RC 200.
That incorporates a lightweight yet solid trellis casing and aluminum swingarm, WP topsy turvy fork and monoshock alongside 300mm front plate clipped to a radially mounted Bybre caliper and a 230mm back circle.
Like the RC 200, it gets MRF REVZ spiral tires. A solitary channel ABS is likewise on offer as standard.
Engine of KTM
The KTM RC 125 offers its powertrain with the exposed 125 Duke. This 124.7cc fluid cooled engine makes 14.5 PS at 9,250 rpm and 12Nm at 8,000 rpm. When we explored the bare 125 Duke, we observed this powertrain to be disappointing as far as execution.
Presently at 141kg, the 125 Duke is 13.3kg lighter than the RC 125. Given the additional weight, we expect a drop in by and large execution in the RC 125.
Price: It is the Most Moderate Faired KTM.
At Rs 1.47 lakh, this is the second most moderate KTM (after the 125 Duke) and the most reasonable KTM with a fairing. Truth be told, it is an incredible Rs 43,000 more reasonable than the KTM RC 200.
It isn’t as Moderate, However.
Regardless of being the most reasonable faired KTM, it doesn’t generally appear to be so when contrasted with its adversaries or even the KTM 125 Duke. The RC 125 costs Rs 17,000 more than the KTM 125 Duke.
Its primary challenge is the Yamaha R15 V3.0 which, at Rs 1.4 lakh, is Rs 7,000 progressively moderate. Also, the Yamaha offers more power, highlights, and better security as a double channel ABS setup.
Colour: Emerging from Other KTM RC Bikes.
Regardless of having a similar framework as the KTM RC 200, the RC 125 gets another and one of a kind orange and black attire.
This noisy paint job should make the RC 125 emerge among an ocean of KTM RC 200s and RC 390s.
Final Words
Remarking on the launch, Sumeet Narang, Vice President at Bajaj Auto Ltd. said “KTM bikes are worked to the motivation behind winning execution and dealing with.
It is the same with the RC 125 which will give a genuine KTM experience to the bike devotee looking to enter our Supersport world.”
