The best part about the RC 200 is it's handling. But only limited to high speed cornering. It's easy to shift the weight as well. Keeping the bike front heavy really helps in the stability while cornering. In traffic it isn't as nimble. Duke is a better option.The braking stability of the bike is great as well. It doesn't have ABS by the way, and you can feel that as the wheels lock a lot at high speed braking. Especially the rear tyres. The locking has reduced after I changed the tyre to a Michelin (from MRF) but the problem still exists. Front brakes are good.Mileage is same as other 200cc bikes. Average of 37kmpl when new. Now the average mileage has dropped down to 32kmpl after 3 years. Best mileage ever achieved is 42kmpl. Worst ever is 28kmpl.Acceleration, pickup and speed isn't as great as people think. People think it's the best because it's KTM. Acceleration wise, Yamaha FZ25 and Honda CBR250R is better than this. Bajaj Dominar is way ahead. And even bikes like Pulsar NS200 or RS200 aren't far behind. In real world there isn't much difference. Even Duke 200 for example is similar. You do feel like it's underpowered on a gradient when compared to a 19hp, 350cc Royal Enfield bike. Even with a lack of 6hp and 25kgs of weight the RE pulls better on a gradient ascend much better which came to me as a shock. It was one best when it was lost in performance aspect but the competition has got better in the span of last 3 years.The seat height of the bike is higher. People whose height 5.8 or less have difficulty touching both feets. Some of my friends have problem of even keeping the bike straight. So if your height is 5.4 or something, most probably it's better not to buy it. Because it's unsafe to ride if you aren't able to keep the bike straight.Pillion support is one of the worst even though it is soft. No proper layout to fix yourself onto the seat. The seat has a smooth surface as well so whenever there's a jerky motion you will slip on it if not alert. But the way you seat on it keeps you alert all the time. There's no way you will be comfortable on a seat that's actually comfortable.The bike is designed such that there are tight spaces where dirt gets accumulated and it becomes difficult to clean it. Till date this the most difficult bike i ever had clean. Duke is even worse. And the orange rims and frame stain quite easily.Rear view mirrors are useless. Headlights of low power. Low beam is a disappointment. Fuel tank capacity is really low. Need to visit fuel station frequently. Digital unit isn't accurate. The distance to zero, mileage displayed aren't reliable.
