Positioned in KTM's sport motorcycle lineup, the 2016 KTM RC 200 features a 199.5 cc (12.2 cu in) liquid-cooled single cylinder, four-stroke configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 25 HP (18.2 kW), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 125.3 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the RC 200 measures 137.5 kg (303 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.18 HP/kg (5.5 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,340 mm (52.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 10-liter (2.6 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
