The KTM RC8 Venom is an aggressivley styled street-fighter bike
designed to offers superbike levels of performance.
KTM made sure to keep the bike's center of gravity as low as
possible to improve the handling. The fuel tank is located under
the seat to push the center of gravity down even further.
Other highlights of the KTM RC8 Venom include dry sump lubrication,
which has the added benefit of giving the exhaust system room
to sit closer to the engine.
While the RC8 Venom has minimal fairings, what is there is designed
to reduce crosswind drag and provide a modicum of protection
for the rider.
