i think it is headed the right direction i bet it will have a few bugs as most motocross ktm bikes do, it really looks good for their first sport bike!

I'm not questioning it's quality, it just looks like The Enterprise gave birth to it.

Its funny to see that they made the video at the Guadix circuit. I have been there a couple of times. It´s in Granada (in Spain) 150 km far from where I live. It´s a really small circuit but very funny. With my 600 I can only use until third gear at the straights.:clap:

I really don't like the front, but the rest looks good. The side. Still, I don't think the looks beat the 1098. Now that thing is fucking georgeous!

I think it's cool. I like the idea of something different in the sportbike market. It is a good step in the right direction as far as I am concerned.

yeah, i read somewhere about that fischer being an american bike, it looks pretty good but from what i remember it was abit heavy and also the bikes motor was downsized from a 1k to a 600cc...i would make both if it was me. as for the ktm, it looks ok but as someone pointed out its gonna be hella expensive... im stickin with my gixxer1k

I own a KTM 950sm. perfect bike for me at the moment. handles beter than anything else on the market (in its class) It had a few bugs that where fixed on warrenty. the RC8 is the product of 4 years development. I will be getting a test ride. A V-Twin with 160 bhp gives me the horn. the looks are a little risky. Like the duke 999

That KTM looks like one of those cheap Hyousong (SP.) bikes. Are those numbers on the tail the engine size? If so, it is a pretty big bike. I give it a big fat Thumbs down. Im still with team Suzuki.
