KTM RC16 MotoGP (track only)
KTM RC16 MotoGP
racebike would be made available as a track-only customer bike, and this has
now been confirmed by KTM chief executive officer Stefan Peirer. Speaking to
German publication Speedweek, Pierer said the RC16 would be ready for purchase
in 2018 at a price of “between 100,000 euros to 120,000 euros.
According to Pierer, 100 units of the
customer-edition RC16 will be made available for sale, with the design of the
commercial RC16 following the race RC16 “very closely.” This includes a 240 PS
power output from the V-four, down 30 PS from the 270 PS race machine.
This limited edition, premium performance machine
from KTM comes as no surprise, as there is a market out there for high-end,
exclusive motorcycles. This can be seen from offerings such as the Honda
RC213V-S, the Ducati 1299 Superleggera and Kawasaki H2 Carbon.
