Pros Cons of KTM RC 200

Pros

  • Improved aerodynamics with a more efficient design, reducing drag and enhancing top speed
  • Lighter chassis and 3.3 kg weight reduction, providing better handling and agility
  • Comfortable riding posture with raised handlebars, making it more suitable for daily commuting

Cons

  • The front brake lacks aggressive bite, even with the larger 320 mm disc
  • The LCD console feels outdated compared to TFT screens offered in higher variants
  • The price point (Rs 2.09 lakh ex-showroom) is on the higher side for the 200cc segment

Verdict

The 2022 KTM RC 200 brings a host of updates that make it a more refined and user-friendly sports bike, perfect for both city use and occasional track days. With improved ergonomics, a lighter chassis, and better aerodynamics, it delivers a thrilling ride. However, the lack of a more aggressive braking feel and a TFT display may leave some wanting more. Despite these minor drawbacks, the RC 200 remains a well-rounded package for riders looking for an entertaining and sharp motorcycle in the 200cc class.

Pros Cons Ducati Panigale V4

Pros

  • High-performance superbike
  • Superlative performance & handling
  • Sharp looks, flagship Ducati superbike

Cons

  • Not suitable for everyday road use
  • High-performance superbike for expert riders

Verdict

The new Ducati Panigale V4 S has that innate quality that makes a 200-plus bhp superbike very accessible and safe around a racetrack. Sure, it's not made for less experienced riders new to litre-class superbikes, and despite the state-of-the-art electronics package, one wrong twist of the wrist can make things go wrong very quickly; after all, all that power and torque over a wide rev range is not to be fooled with, or taken lightly, by any standard.
