      7 years since the first RC review came out? Wow. Time flies. Cant believe its been that long already. I still remember that review and many lines from it. It was what made me buy the RC 390 and at that time it cost me around 2.25 to 2.3 lakh on-road in Pune. Coming to the new gen RC 200, I think the biggest improvements they have done over the years is fine tuning the niggles of the past and on reliability of the machine. As far as looks goes, I will leave it to personal preference.

    Regression in sportiness both in looks and functionality in favour of bit more comfort and better ergonomics. Now its one of the sporty looking fully faired motorcycles instead of being pure, absolute sportsbike like before.

    As a stand-alone bike, the new rc200 definitely makes sense. But that never was the purpose of the original RC series. It was for you to train your self for something bigger,Faster and more visceral. For someone serious about that aspect, the learning curve will be a bit more when they step up.

    The new KTM RC200 is a much better improved motorcycle than the previous gen. In terms of looks the old one was compact but it doesn't has that big bike feel. With this new design its looks and feels like a bigger bike to Ride. Ok the front looks more is functional but may be a little weird. However from the side it looks like proper sports. Then the engine performance absolutely superb. What also good its refined and smooth to. It also gets good features like an LCD screen, all LED lighting , dual channel ABS but it Misses out on a slipper clutch. The best part is after all these changes its still weighs the exact same wow 😮.
    Overall the new RC200 is more of a proper road bike that can be used for track day capability as well rather being a full fledged track machine like the previous RC. I realy like new RC200.

      @@sahilkaushal9359 being an ex RE owner... Just don't do it. It is not worth the pain. Even if the newer RE with the new engine is better than the ones in 2016.. I would not recommend it. It may have that retro look towards it which many people like, but that is all what it has. Lazy chasis and the weak brakes!! RE fans love it for many reasons and I respect it but if u r a guy who likes to drive sporty and love to carve corners and do power pulls once in a while RE is not the bike for you at all. It is just Ok to cruise in between 60-80kph. That's it..
      Decide based on your driving styles and what you want. Such expensive purchases should be fully justified to ourselves. Buyers remorse is too hard..when we spend our money on something that we waited for long but it turned out to be not to our liking and suiting for us.
      Check out the Husqvarna twins as well... definitely not as comfortable as Gixxer 250SF but has a better street presence.
