anyone familiar with bikes here?

saw the new ktm rc390 and am very very interested in getting one.

it retails for $8000 where i live and i was wondering if it was worth it

im not super experienced so i figured sub 400cc is where i am at right now.

its beautiful and aesthetically it is exactly what im looking for

performance and specs wise im not so familiar with which is the part i hope you guys have some opinions about

Your height and weight are big things to consider , always .

The weight of the bike vs others and others you have driven before is another big one. I don't know the bike, but if it's a pig you probably wouldn't like it as much as a lighter bike.

What kind of riding you do? Trails? Pits? Tracks? Just a weekend toy?

At the very least, go sit on it and see how it feels. See if you're comfortable on the bike or not.

I'm sure you can bring the 8k down a little bit lower too. I've been dreaming about an RC8 recently. Dude at my gym has one, it's nice.
