There is a KTM RC-8 in the Begumpet Hyderabad showroom as well. I've been meaning to stop by and take a look at it, as well as the Ninja 300, but have been too discouraged with the insane heat here.

What a beautiful bike though! The only thing I would want KTM to try and change would be the Headlight design. In my opinion, it doesn't suit the aggressive styling of the rest of the bike so well.

I would probably disagree about the headlight. It gives a unique twist to the design of the bike which I find quite interesting. There are very few super bikes which have been able to pull off a vertical headlight design like for instance, the Ducati 999 or the Hyosung GT650R
