Like we said, the RC 200 gets cosmetic updates from the previous generation. The bodywork looks a lot fresh and we like the way the design has evolved. The bike gets the two brilliant colour schemes, too. Bits like mirrors, footpegs, indicators are new. So is the exhaust system.

KTM RC 200 India Competition
In the world of superbikes, every bike has its own fan following, who would not think of buying any other bike. Like that, KTM also has its sweet loyalists who make regular customizations and additions of accessories to the bike. In a broader concept, it competes with Pulsar RS 200, Suzuki Gixxer SF, Honda CBR 150R/250R and Yamaha R15. However, none of the sports bikes has the same engine specs. The Pulsar, Gixxer, 150R and R15 are priced way too less. They compete because of the same type of bodywork. It can also compete with a more powerful TVS Apache RR310, which is priced around Rs 30,000 more than the RC 200.
