KTM RC16 - Full Development Video | Building a Prototype

KTM made its debut in the 2017 season of MotoGP. See the story behind the development of the Red bull KTM Factory Racing Bike RC16.
The KTM RC16 has a 90-degree V4 engine developing around 245 bhp at 16,000 rpm . It has a steel-tube chassis with bottom-braced aluminum swingarm. The front 60 percent of the RC16’s “tank” is a black carbon cover over the engine’s sealed intake airbox, fed through a generous-sized oval opening at the front fairing. Most of the fuel is lower down, closer to the centre of mass. The KTM RC16 though, does has some resemblance to the Honda RC213V. The RC16 has a steel trellis frame.and has 17-inch wheels and carbon fibre discs. Brakes are of Brembo and the suspension is by WP suspension.

Man I love ktm! Everything they make is a work of art

[@jake88ci]

Competing in MOTOGP shows that KTM has the engineering prowess/ability to make the best motorcycles in the world

[@mohdismail4342]

amazing bike ktm hope this season is a successful season for ktm

[@daytonasayswhat9333]

Smart, nerdy, dull engineers perfect. that’s exactly the team I would want if I was designing a Moto GP bike.

[@24james]

It is the team if you don’t want to die…

[@marksmanAlex]

Dull??

[@Wolf-nu8de]

The team don't want you

[@b.max1780]

Work of art awesome peace of engineering. Just a beautiful bike

[@sombreromo9509]

Wow the sounds like monster.. the king KTM.

[@scottsmith491]

The 2020 season has just concluded. KTM is now a front runner and will be a serious threat to win the Championship in the near future. There pace of development is very impressive to say the least.

[@joeyrsix4753]

One of the things that make me dislike the current models of some motorcycles is the weird-sounding engines. The current R1 models, as well as Ducati, including the KTM RC8 itself, are an example of this. But this prototype KTM RC16 surprised me.

[@mr1982davies]

top 10 there bloody winning moto gp races bravo ktm amazing work love the company

[@briantaylor9285]

Year 2022 here, came back just to hear that sound again.

[@md12318]

Where's KTM's liter bike for the public, to run with ZX-10R, GSXR-1000R, CBR1000RR, S1000R, R1, etc..???

[@josemiguelbb]

Damn... 4V...245bhp... damn!!

[@loooopeytunes]

The 2021 version has 270bhp in it

[@rosyibakeromv8069]

Mantap lah pokoke.. Tonton dulu baru subcribe ... 👏👏👍👌

[@malibu188]

A dyno like that would allow you to run the motor on every track simulation available.

[@johnsimms3693]

Kenny roberts been trying to get those bikes right for years ... Shows how long it takes n money to get a slot in the highest prestige of motorcycle racing out there ... I solute KTM for staying with a dream and a plan

[@captainsensible298]

An RC12 please

[@heavymetalboi]

Please make a road inpsired version of this, even though you dont want too :P

[@ihatechand]

they have ktm rc 200/250/390 but only 1 cyl. hopefully they will build 2cyls 250cc's like Japanese brand do's

[@ihatechand]

@01yala Ninja 150r, Ninja 150rr, Kawasaki KRR, Yamaha RX King, Suzuki Satria. That's beast from South East Asian 2strokes

[@loooopeytunes]

Chandra Yudistira 250cc 2 cyls have very weak torque, compared to KTM 1 cyl. You need to rev higher to get the torque kicks in, but the 1 cyl will deliver torque and power across all rev range. If you only care for sound, then motorcycle isn't for you.

[@TheFastphill]

you got a lot of work to do HONDA last year win its 800 GP race

[@Jannepannetpapanat]

Hyvä Mika!! 👍👍

1 liter sports bike isn't your everyday sport bike bruh lol 600cc bike is more than enough for street, idk what you're on

[@wojciechnapieracz2750]

Only made on Japan.

[@dacat8171]

Marvelous design. Look at what MotoGP turned into in 2023: 🤮

[@Newness14]

265hp is too much

[@CBRboy1717]

There's no such thing as "too much" in racing....

[@loooopeytunes]

It's too much if you can't handle the power. Motogp riders skills are top of the line

[@kurkurfc5666]

Why japanese made more durable and reliable bikes?

[@ilham7345]

Because good manufacturing technology and attention to detail

[@davidxu916]

in house made parts and high production volume to eek out small issues. If you look at Euro bikes, a lot of them share same brand components across different brands. i.e. Brakes, Electronics. So reliability is sacrificed.

[@loooopeytunes]

Japanese bikes usually have lower engine compression and less electronic aids. They don't have the guts to invent new parts because they afraid the engine won't last long. They like to play "safe". Meanwhile, the european counterparts, they love to invent new things. The first motorcycle are invented by europeans. A lot of new parts, electronics, aerodynamics are patented and even used by japanese bikes. But because europeans love inventing new stuff, they usually forget how to make them reliable. The need to sacrifice reliability for new inventions. People saying that japanese bikes are more advanced than european bikes.. complete bs.

[@המכונהשבאופנוע]

The editing is absolutely rubbish!!!

[@mala7794]

ktm> makes a promotion video to show how good their bikes are Yamaha, Honda and ducati> *wins moto GP*

[@loooopeytunes]

This video is 2017, look how fast they've been progessing. Meanwhile Honda and yamaha have been around decades in motogp, compared to KTM. KTM is still young in motogp, but it doesn't matter, they'll steal the throne.

[@cmojj6761]

How about KTM put out a real bike for once instead of false promises. Waiting on a 1000cc street bike. Holla.

[@jarnosaarinen4583]

What are you waiting for? (RC8) 1148cc's

[@cmojj6761]

Jarno Saarinen if I’m correct they stop making that specific bike a few years back. Let me know if I’m wrong.

[@cmojj6761]

Jarno Saarinen that model came out in 2008 and they don’t even make them anymore because they don’t think the public can handle that power. Smdh. Can we get an updated RC8. Its been 10 years already.

[@marisgelyarro765]

Superduke 1290r then, it has 1300cc

[@danielryan5384]

I believe a v4 rc8 replacement is on the cards in next couple years . Imagine a v4 super duke r 🤪
