WORLD PREMIERE:
KTM-SUPERBIKE CONCEPT “RC8” RELEASED
AT TOKYO MOTORSHOW.

The RC8 CONCEPT BIKE underlines KTM’s long term vision for the road.

SHE DOES NOT COME IN PEACE - SHE COMES FROM KTM.
Those who know KTM, know that only one thing counts with us. We’ve symbolized uncompromising motor sports for over 50 years. And all that time KTM has fought on the front lines to win.
For the RC8, we brought our riders to the design table as well as the best technicians and designers. Our aim: The ultimate weapon for ambitious street-fighters.
That means: A radical concentration of its mass around the compact 75° V2. Innovative details are everywhere: The seat is the tank, keeping fuel at the machine’s centre of gravity. Dry sump lubrication allows the entire exhaust system to sit precisely where it has the least influence on dynamics. Directly under the engine.
The fairing is designed to produce: The least possible crosswind drag. The result: No crosswind oscillation, spell-binding agility, and aggressive steering ability.

FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION - FORM FOLLOWS FICTION.
Our design approach is very simple. At KTM, an air duct is always – first and foremost – an air duct. First the function, then the beauty.
But anyone who stands and beholds her can tell that we don’t give the appearances short shrift.
Her powerful lines and extreme reduction to the basics characterize her as a unique, wild and emotional motorcycle. A striking statement for our future on the road.

Vorm volgt functie, OK...
Maar ze hadden niet zo hun best hoeven doen om het gelijk zo spuuglelijk te maken. Een oliekoeler van een meter hoog. |(
 
Doet me een beetje denken aan die oude PC-spelletjes à la Tomb Raider: Van die hoekige polygoontje omdat rond te veel rekenkracht vergt (rond=oneindig veel rechte lijntjes).

Misschien heeft KTM geen geld voor een nieuwe PC?

'kvinnem heel apart...


Niet mooi, wel apart...
