Dimensions and weight

Wheelbase- 1355mm

Ground clearance- 158mm

Seat Height- 824mm

Weight- 172kg

Seat height is slightly on the higher side, it might be a struggle for short riders.

Looks

It have an astounding style which is carried by it flawlessly. Sharp looking lines and curves drawing a perfect picture of a sports bike.

Face

One thing that I personally don't like about KTMs is their headlight design, and same feeling I'm getting about this KTM too, although I appreciate their uniqueness.

It get visor which kinda provide service to headlight house as well. Visor is fixed its not adjustable and to take benefit of visor you have to dug down, its not a adventure machine keep that thing in mind. Blinkers are slick in design and are sufficiently bright. 110 section tyre is moving with its personality.

Side scene

The coolness of KTM is one of the reason to grap public and with upgrade version of that coolness RC 390 is rocking the scenario right now.

The graphics are looking spot one, giving mind blowing appearance to the machine. Fairing is attached to the headlight housing which gives it a bulky and huge look. Fuel tank is big with some sporty lines on it. Engine is exposed that enhances the picture of KTM RC 390. You can spot the quickshifter too.

The seat height is pretty high for short riders, pillion seats seems cramped and it is, no proper grab rails pillion get space to hold on beneath the seat but that is so weird. Ground clearance is not bad.

Tail

Sharp tail with full LED tail light whose design is simply amazing, the slick blinkers also helps in maintaining the sportiness of this motorcycle. 150 section type is giving it great grip and looks as well. It got tyre hugger which spoils the looks but show its importance in rainy season, when you got unwanted design on your clothes.

Instrument cluster

One thing I love the most about KTMs is their colourfull instrument cluster which shows you plenty of information. This one also features that, which shows you turn by turn navigation, speed tachometer, odometer, tripmeters, time, gear, fuel, and plenty of other things. You can explore this cluster by the navigation buttons given on the left side of the handle bar.

At last......

Seriously speaking, I'm not a big fan of KTM but this new RC 390 is an attractive machine. KTM are known for their speedy style and the power figures are sick. Look wise, electronic wise this bike is amazing but the only thing is that it is quite expensive.

The smell of adrenaline is soothing to those who know how to push their limits, who know how to lick the track, who know how to scare their rivals, who know how to go fast while standing with the fasters, and to those who are coming out from Aprilia's factory where their blood has to experience the addition of aggressiveness. Aprilia has launched the all-new Aprilia RS457. Even though this one has a small engine unlike Aprilia, it has that same level of craziness, zest, and quality as Aprilia. There is one more fact about this bike which is a proud moment for all Indians because this Aprilia is completely built in India.

Which one you should buy, the Kawasaki Ninja 400 or the Aprilia RS 457? | HighRPM

Recently, in December 2023, Aprilia launched its all-new Aprilia RS 457 , the first made-in-India Italian bike. The Aprilia is a brand which is known for its powerful, big, and track-centric machines. This RS 457 has less power than its other sibling but can shake the segment with its amazing power-to-weight ratio and Aprilia's fit finish. This Aprilia has some rivals in the market but in my opinion, the most strong one is from a family of monsters like Aprilia RS 457. This rival has been present in the industry for years and has won many hearts too, I'm talking about the Kawasaki Ninja 400 . These two bikes are superb at their job and this thing leads to confusion. In terms of looks personally, to me Aprilia is looking more dashing than Ninja, now it doesn't mean that Ninja is not a handsome bike there is no doubt but for me, Aprilia is a bit more sexier. The topic to discuss is definitely not looks, it's about power, price, and other things, so, drop your gears and
