The new RC 8C motorcycle features very high-spec equipment that makes it a dedicated track tool. It features a bespoke steel tubular chassis that houses an 889 cc, parallel-twin, liquid-cooled engine. This powertrain has been rated to churn out 126 bhp of maximum power.
On the outside, there is a KTM RC16-inspired carbon Kevlar-reinforced GRP bodywork. Also, what makes the motorcycle even more interesting to look at are its aerodynamic winglets that appear to be borrowed from the KTM MotoGP machine. In addition, there are rear-set footpegs, clip-on handlebars, and an Akrapovic exhaust system.
