Looks fantastic! Objectively, the new RC is a better looking bike.2022 RC390
with race suit
respectfully, noLooks fantastic! Objectively, the new RC is a better looking bike.
the new fairing design increases top speed by 8MPH alone...respectfully, no
Correct me if I'm wrong but the limiting factor with top speed with the previous gen is the sprockets/rev limiter. Also not sure where you see the ADV style in the previous gen but hey, they're your eyes, not mine.the new fairing design increases top speed by 8MPH alone...
the only real negative on the 2022 is the exhaust and lack of bellypan. Which get changed for racing anyways....
Honestly, the front of the old RC looks less like a street bike and more of an adventure, also...
Pics don't do it justice either, in person there's not much contest IMHO

You didn't correct anything. That article mentions that it hits 111mph, cool. What's the gearing on the bike? Better aero might get you to top speed quicker but its still gearing/rev limiter that determines true max speed. Old RC could hit 111mph with a simple sprocket change.Corrected. [/URL]
lol the 2022 looks like a street bike... the old ones don't.
I dont know man, i really like the old design plus the hidden exhaust looks amazing imothe new fairing design increases top speed by 8MPH alone...

I mean youi can just take the exhaust pipe off... it has the resonator. I don't like the exhaust pipe, its not like anyone keeps their stock exhaust though... KTM says its derived from their motoGP exhaust though.I dont know man, i really like the old design plus the hidden exhaust looks amazing imo
PS: the new exhaust looks like the fart gun from the first minions movie
