2017 KTM RC 2017 White Edition

The KTM RC 200 is the most track-focused machine you can buy under Rs 2.0 lakh. It’s got a super-committed riding posture, a perfectly balanced chassis and a powerful engine. These traits make it a wonderful machine on the track but is a bane in city traffic or while touring.

The new 2017 RC 200 is priced at Rs 1.72 Lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). It costs about Rs. 5,000 more than the model it replaces. The fresher styling and a longer features list helps justify the increase in price





About RC200


The 2017 model year of the KTM RC200 doesn’t have mechanical updates, other than the fact that the engine is now BS4 compliant. A couple of changes have been made to its appearance – there are orange wheels, a white/orange paint scheme which has been introduced for 2017. Nothing else changes though, not even the price. That makes it a little more value for money, and as far as entry-level crotch rockets go, you can’t get much better than the RC200. There’s still no ABS, even as an option, and just like its elder sibling, it retains the scalpel-sharp handling that made us like it so much. If you’re looking for an all-new RC200, though, you’ll have to wait until the end of 2017 or beyond. There isn’t any real competition for the RC200 - the only other product that is as committed is the Yamaha YZF-R15, and that sits a segment below the RC200. The bike is priced at Rs 1,74,797 (ex-showroom,Delhi)
