KTM RC16 With 240bhp Will Be Up For Sale In 2018
Pierer also said that KTM wants to keep the customer RC16 as exciting as its MotoGP machine.
The
"Ready
to
Race" brand,
KTM
will
offer
its
RC16
MotoGP
racer
as
a
track-only
model
for
"Racing
for
Fun"
customers.
The
model
would
cost
six-figures
in
European
currency.
KTM CEO Stefan Pierer revealed some information on the "consumer version" of the production RC16 race bike while talking to a German publication called Speedweek. He said the company will make at least 100 units of the production machine.
Pierer also said that KTM wants to keep the customer RC16 as exciting as its MotoGP machine. But the power output will be reduced from 270bhp to 240bhp. According to KTM, the 90° V4 unit is called "screamer" engine.
For this track-only monster, the price will be a big concern as it makes its debut for the customer in 2018. One thing is sure that the RC16 will be priced below the Honda's MotoGP production version, RC213V-S.
Pierer also said that the RC16 will be priced somewhere between €100,000 (Rs 73 lakh) and €120,000 (Rs 87 lakh), in order to make it "affordable" to motorcycle enthusiast. We think, for many, that's not affordable.
