AFAIK you are the only one here with an RC8R, all of our KTM's pale in comparison.

Here's mine


Nice duke! Did you install Bazaaz? If you did, is it worth it?

There is not much info out there in the cyber world about the RC8(wish there was a forum like this for it). I hope that I could use the same info from bikes like the duke and super duke since there seem's to be more info on those bike's. Any info you can relay to me would be great!  [roll]

The RC8 would be one of my top choices for a track bike if I ever fell into some money. Gorgeous bike and grats.

Mine is the one on the left.



Now as far as tuning goes, tuneECU works well on the RC8.  There's quite a few RC8 owners on SuperDuke.net as well.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

I'm running a Bazzaz and would recommend it for your RC8R.

Beautiful bike.  Is that a SuperDuke?  What year?

Does it make a big difference? Pros? Cons?

Had I left my bike stock ( [laugh] [laugh]) I wouldn't have needed it. PC finally has one for the RC8 if you want to go that route.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

Those rc8r's are so gorgeous in person... and yes, I love the white/orange color scheme too.

Congrats man, you're going to love it... heard it's really comfy too with the amount of adjustability it has.

Nice thing about using tuneECU is that it's free.  There are quite a few people on SDnet who have maps they'd be happy to share for that beast.  The map I'm running on the SuperDuke is one I got from there.

I have read some koo and helpful info, maybe you can point me towards some good threads! Can you also explain this tuneECU thing to me? Is it just custom fuel mapping? Do I need to purchase a device to hook up to my bike? Thnx for the info DRKWNG! And thnx for all the compliments! I love the bike so far, rode it all this week to work and it is not a hassle like I thought it would be. I find it more easy to ride actually(even in traffic) compared to my monster. Is that weird?

I like the KTMs, same with some Harleys like the new Forty Eight.

Not a fan of plastic but it that bike really has some awesome agressive lines. ::)
