MODEL SUMMARY.

Exceptional example of a 2013 13 registered KTM RC8 R in Black and Orange.

2 owners from new, with the original owner keeping it for 5 years, and covering just 1600 miles in that time. Current mileage is now 5900 miles with service history, including it’s original stamped service book, a previous bill of sale, service bills and invoices, and old MOTs. Just had Motorex 10w 50 fully synthetic lube service. Excellent matching Michelin Power RS 2ct+s fitted.

One of the most individual superbikes of modern times, this is the ultimate RC8, the RC8 R. Genuinely a very special bike, with monstrous performance from it’s 175 ps / 93 lb/ft 75 deg V-Twin. Out of production for many years, and never very commonplace, these bikes are few and far between, and this one has just 2 owners, 5900 miles, and a full titanium Akrapovic exhaust system. It also has a Carbon fibre front hugger, Carbon fibre rear hugger, KTM powerparts adjustable folding levers, KTM Powerparts tank pad, KTM Powerparts fuel filler surround, KTM Powerparts anodised brake and clutch reservoir caps, Pro-Bolt anodised engine bolt set, LED indicators, Full Armourfend protection, Tail tidy and R&G paddock stand bobbins fitted. Future collectable ? We reckon so…

The specification is hugely impressive, and has Keihin engine management with twin throttle valves per cylinder, Twin plugs per cylinder and adjustable cam timing, Chrome-Moly trellis frame with powder coated subframe and adjustable light alloy swingarm, Fully adjustable WP suspension, Fully adjustable WP steering damper, Aluminium diecast lightweight Marchesini rims, Adjustable footrests and levers, Adjustable brake/clutch levers, handlebars and seat height, Brembo radial 4 pot calipers with 320mm dia. discs, Brembo radial front brake master cylinder, Brembo rear brake caliper, Magura radial clutch master cylinder, Lap timer and Multifunction trip computer.

Adjustability is the watchword, everything is adjustable. The RC8 R’s raison d’etre was to offer in effect a ‘kit’ race motorcycle that could be enhanced easily through the use of KTM’s extensive Powerparts range. Whether for fast road, track, or full on short circuit racing, these bikes could be very easily and cost effectively modified, and that is why the base package offered so much. A really high spec. machine ‘out of the crate’ so to speak.

With unique styling and one of the punchiest, boomiest, potent V-Twins to be had, allied to a wonderful, lithe chassis, these are a truly fabulous bike, and right at the end of the ‘analogue’ era which will surely make them very appealing in years to come. Just wonderful, and this is one of the very best that will be found. Undoubtedly, one to keep hold of.  MOTd July 2020. All books/keys/keycodes/history/documents present
