2013 KTM 1190 RC8, ON SALE $1900.00 OFFThe ultimate power tool from KTM. KTM designers pulled out all the stops in the art of engine building when it came to the 1190 RC8 R 2013. The rider has one of the most powerful V2 engines of our times and one of the best chassis in the world at his or her disposal totally street-legal. With the precision to cut out the others when entering a curve. With the power and traction to pull away from them coming out of a curve. With the feedback and ergonomics to enjoy the 1190 RC8 R 2013 to the fullest.FRAMEThe 2013 KTM RC8 R's thin-walled, 7.3 kg light tubular lattice frame of high-strength chrome-molybdenum steel sets standards in dimensional stability and lightweight construction. Its optimal stiffness distribution results in fantastic precision and unparalleled stability.CENTRALISATION OF MASSESThe RC8 R not only impresses with low weight and perfect chassis geometry the centralisation of masses - for example, by positioning the silencer under the engine - also contributes to its easy handling and razor-sharp precision.SWINGARMThe intricately made light alloy swingarm makes a significant contribution to the outstanding traction of the KTM RC8 R. The position of the swingarm can be adjusted by means of an eccentric on the lever linkage. In this way, compression can be minimised and squatting prevented when accelerating out of corners.LINKAGEThe progressiveness of the linkage provides the shock absorber with refined responsiveness and still with sufficient reserves at peak loads. The position of the swingarm can be adjusted to the rider's riding style and weight on the easily accessible eccentric adjuster on the linkage, and squatting on acceleration prevented.SHOCK ABSORBERThe sophisticated internal mechanism of the WP shock absorber on the 2013 RC8 R completely isolates the rebound damping from the compression stage, so that they can each be adjusted independently of one another. The compression damping can also be set for high speed and low speed. The suspension set-up range extends comfortably to racing conditions.TELESCOPIC FORKThe high-quality upside-down fork from WP Suspension can be adjusted separately for preload as well as for compression and rebound damping of the suspension. Their adjustment ranges extend from country road comfort to tough racing conditions. In addition, a WP steering damper keeps the forks on track, even under extreme conditions.WHEELS AND TYRESThe lightweight, Marchesini, aluminium die-cast wheels on the KTM RC8 R are fitted with Continental Sport Attack II tyres. These top-quality tyres provide outstanding ride characteristics and endless grip, whether on a wet country road or a scorching hot racetrack. With a decent service life, they support the unique qualities of the
