KTM seems fully ready for the festive season as they have introduced all new color schemes for the RC series. The new shades have been listed on the official KTM India website, but as of now, there is no word regarding the availability of the new shades in India. Selling with the same old theme from quite a long time, the motorcycles now look fully refreshed, specially the flagship RC 390. The design elements remain the same while excellent sticker themes now makes them truly class apart.
New Shades Unveiled for 2017 KTM RC Series
KTM RC 390 now comes with a combination of Orange, Jet Black and Grey on its fairing. The fuel tank is finished in Jet Black while the parts under the rear seat are now finished in Orange with White inserts and RC 390 branding. The inner Orange panel was actually Black on the first shade and looks the most amazing components from all others. The side exhaust can also seen on the RC 390, which has been fitted to the international models before also. It is not clear when the new RC 390 would be launched in India with side mounted exhaust/muffler.

The fairing on RC 200 remains the same while the RC 390 loses the bottom most fairing, flaunting its engine completely on the 2017 model. This further means lesser weight, compensating the weight of the exhaust. On the other hand, the dark themed RC200 has turned opposite, bringing White to the outer fairing and even the lower fairing.
It is actually pearl White and not the same White as older RC 390, which was not as bright as this one. KTM India has even listed the long awaited RC 125 on the website while its launch cannot be confirmed from any source, and there are very thin chances that RC 125 would be launched in India. Although, it is the one which carries the most effective pure Orange theme on its fuel tank and side fairing.
