KTM RC8R 1190 Akrapovic Replica IDM











KTM has presented the first of 100 RC8R Akrapovic Race Replicas. Thanks to its integrated Club Race Kit, inclusive of an Akrapovic EVO4-exhaust system, modified cylinder head gasket and injection mapping, the 1190 RC8R Akrapovic Race Replica can now achieve 180 hp and is therefore one of the most potent of Superbikes on the market. And anyone who rarely lets off steam on a closed racing circuit can use the noble replica with the distinctive Akrapovic scorpion to ride with passion in normal traffic, with the normal stock exhaust system.

The two-cylinder bike, which has already been successfully deployed in the IDM, is already available as a series model. It represents a highly modern Superbike concept that is refined with high quality components, race-ready WP suspension elements and Brembo brake components. Every single unit of the 100 specially-numbered motorcycles is a lightning fast collector’s item and proof of the strong cooperation between KTM and Akrapovic, the leading manufacturer of high-end

KTM presented the first of 100 RC8 R Akrapovic Race Replicas within the scope of the 2009 IDM finale in Hockenheim. Once optimized with the supplied club race kit containing an Akrapovic exhaust system, a modified cylinder head gasket and modified mapping, the eye-catching machine generates 180 HP, making it one of the world's most powerful superbikes. Of course, the impressive Race Replica is also fully road homologated with the original exhaust system. After all, the high-tech twocylinder motorcycle that was successful at the IDM - the racing machine was ridden by famous Jeremy McWilliams - already comes as standard as a state-of-the-art superbike that already impresses through its highly refined fittings, racing-adapted WP suspension chassis components and exquisite Brembo brake technology. The Race Replica now tops off the design.
