Hello all, I am new to the KTM forum, but not new to riding. I just purchased my 2011 KTM RC8R, and I love it. I have owned other KTM dirtbikes but this is the first sportbike. I have been riding for about 12 years now, and I love the big twins. I rode a RC51 for 6 years, and glad I made the switch.

Welcome Extreme, I am new to the forum as well. Was a Kawi rider for many years before switching to team orange. I went with the 690 duke myself - started out riding dirtbikes myself, after years of crotch rockets etc. I decided I needed something more suited to my roots/riding style. The RC8's are gorgeous bikes - Enjoy!
