KTM India invited us to take part in a media race alongside the RC Cup final races
SPENDING A WEEKEND AT the racetrack is always an exciting affair. This time I got to swing my leg over the new KTM RC 390 (GP Edition) at the MMRT in Chennai. A media race allows us journalists to get a first-hand experience of the championship. There were a group of 16 (journalists and influencers combined) this time. On Saturday, we had two practice sessions of 20 minutes each. It has been a while since I have ridden at the MMRT, so I took it easy as I headed out, but the bike was really easy to get up to speed with.
The bikes running in the championship are stock units with only a few minor changes for added safety on the track. With the quick-shifter, it is now easy to shift through the gearbox. Compared to the previous-gen model, the ergonomics are more relaxed and facilitate more movement which is helpful while tackling corners.
