KTM RC 8C

The 2024 KTM RC 8C is a limited-edition, track-only superbike built for pure performance. Hand-assembled in collaboration with Krämer Motorcycles, it channels Moto2-level precision and aesthetics—perfect for riders who demand a razor-sharp, race-ready experience straight from the factory.

Performance & Power At its core lies an 889 cc LC8c parallel-twin engine, tuned to generate approximately 135 PS with a lofty 12,000 rpm rev limit. With a claimed dry weight of around 142 kg (≈313 lb), it offers an exciting near 1:1 power-to-weight ratio. The bike features a bespoke 25CrMo4 tubular steel frame, quick-release body panels, and Akrapovič race exhaust—designed to maximize performance and flexibility on the track.
Control & Comfort Race-grade components define the RC 8C’s spec sheet. It runs WP APEX PRO closed-cartridge 43 mm forks and an APEX PRO rear shock with remote preload adjuster, both fully adjustable. Braking is entrusted to Brembo Stylema front calipers and a 19RCS Corsa Corta master cylinder, paired with lightweight Dymag wheels on Pirelli race slicks. The cockpit features adjustable clip-ons and footpegs for optimal ergonomics.
Versatility & Style Though strictly track-bound, the RC 8C cuts an aerodynamic figure with its Carbon-Kevlar bodywork, MotoGP-inspired winglets, and aerodynamic fender design for optimal cooling and stability. A race-level AIM MXS 1.2 data-logging dash with GPS delivers high-definition feedback for precise tuning. With only 100 units produced globally, it’s as exclusive as it is purpose-built.
