A local guy just bought a black RC8 for his daily rider... I'm gonna see if I can bum it for a day and see what it's like... lol
I rode one back when they first came out and had the 990 motor in them and loved it then, I can't imagine how it will feel with the refined 1200 in it.

Oh and side note: Paul, up here in the States, dualie refers to a dual-rear-wheel pickup truck. I was imagining a big DRW pickup truck doing 270 down the interstate and laughing at the mental image!

KTM makes some really nice rides these days.....the RC8 is a fantastic sport bike , nice adjustable ergos for normal sized folks (I am 6'1") . I love the way they feel and sound and they are unique. Super Duke is the only one I rode and I was blown away...... VERY fun! I will own one in the future.....

It's a natural choice for someone on a VTR - Worked for me!
