The KTM 1190 RC8 is a 1148 cc (70 cu in) v-twin sport bike manufactured by KTM.[1]. It is the Austrian manufacturer's first-ever Superbike design.
The first concept of the bike appeared in 2005, the concept bike was powered by the Super Duke 999 cc (60.9 cu in) v-twin, the bike capacity was increased to 1148 cc (70 cu in) for the production version. The bike features a steel trellis frame with a cast aluminium seat subframe. The suspension uses high-end upside-down forks and an alloy, double-sided swingarm manufactured by WP, a KTM subsidiary. The bike comes in two colours, the traditional KTM orange and a white and black version.
At the launch of the RC8 superbike KTM announced it will race in the RC8 in the FIM Superstock championship in 2008. KTM's two year plan is to get the bike regularly on the podium in superstock before moving up to the Superbike World Championship.
