It’s good to see that KTM is providing all LED lighting for the middle child of the RC series. The front indicators provide a noticeable flare to the motorcycle because they are integrated into its face. The RC 200 also comes with a monochrome LCD console that is the same as the one seen on the 250 Adventure. This model is well organised and refreshing, in contrast to the previous one that had an orange backlit dash.
