2009 KTM RC8 R Superbike

Next year, KTM is going to start racing. They’ll do it with the new RC8 R superbike that has just been announced in Milan, at the EICMA Show. Under that unusual angular bodywork that makes it unique, and a beautiful mix of black and orange, the Austrians from KTM included a V-Twin 1195cc’s engine to the beast, which sports 165hp or 180hp with an optional race exhaust. I guess that’s how you race with style isn’t it? [via AutoBlog]
