KTM RC 8C Supersport

KTM'S TRACK-ONLY SUPERSPORT

Available in very limited numbers with purchasing that can only be conducted online, KTM Australia opened the books to a very special model for those who are dedicated to the track which quickly sold out.

Before you ask, no, there is no road-registerable model unfortunately.  But really, this is something that NEEDS to be on a track to fully appreciate, not sitting at traffic lights idling.

When first creating this post, there was a unit available. Before publishing, it had been sold.
Per the link below, you can register for a waiting list.  Sometimes folks commit but circumstances change in the meantime due to a bit of bad luck.

Two colours were available; orange and black. 

WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT THIS THEN?

This is an ultra-light, bespoke track-bike.
There is only 24 coming to Australia.
In fact, only 30 are hand built per month for the world with only 200 units to be made in total.
