SSDC 2A TP Test Report Time

[sookainian]

What do u guys think of the new KTM RC390?

I'm torn between the 2022 KTM RC390 and the Yamaha R3 GP Edition (just livery).

I like the twin in-line engine on the R3 but i like the tech on the RC390 (TFT display, quick shift, cornering ABS)

 

How is a singe cylinder engine bike vs a twin in-line engine?

take a read on this for example.
something more aggressive and advance can wait for the zx-4rr

I didnt go the route of the 2A bike this time round. 
2B is some much fun and I'm using its mainly as a transport bike these days.

My 2x400c sports bike in the old days are pushing 50-60+ on tap.. these days no more.. thanks to emission controls...

single cylinder engine will be more vibration = lesser top end but better pick up.

R3 - same engine as MT03 - they are pretty reasonable for pick up.. overall top speed and etc.. FC about 25-30 depending on your Euro 3/4/5.. the higher it is.. the better the FC..  But lesser power...

Tech - it will always be improve as the days goes by. So really up to you bah.
