Its official, we can all get this out of heads now...
Murrieta, CA – KTM Motorsports is excited to announce important details about the race
competition KTM RC 390 Cup Racebike that will be available for purchase for participants
of the 2015 RC Cup Series, a five-round series in conjunction with the 2015 MotoAmerica
Racing Series.
The highly-anticipated RC Cup Series will allow riders between the ages of 14-22 years old
holding an AMA Superstock Limited license to participate. All riders must race aboard
2015 KTM RC 390 Cup Racebikes. These motorcycles are designed as racing competition
bikes (not street-legal) and have been prepared by KTM with over 40 PowerParts and
other enhancements to increase racing performance. Some of the new features include:
- Fully adjustable WP Racing Fork
- Fully adjustable WP Racing Rear Shock with high/low speed compression and
rebound damping, adjustable preload and adjustable shock length
- Akrapovic Exhaust
- Racing Windshield, Tail Fairing and Belly Pan
- RC8 R-style Throttle Assembly
- CNC-machined Racing Foldable Levers
- CNC-machined Racing Rear Sets
Each RC Cup Racebike has been dyno-tested and tuned to 38 hp. To maintain competitive
parity, the engine is sealed and may only be serviced by KTM’s trackside partner HMC
Racing. Modified street-legal RC 390’s will not qualify for participation in the MotoAmerica
KTM RC Cup Series but will be allowed in regional racing.
KTM’s partnership with HMC Racing will add a benefit to all riders during the racing
weekend, as HMC will provide the following services to race participants:
- KTM HMC semi-truck will be present at each event to provide a relaxing hospitality
area for participants
- The KTM HMC technicians will provide technical assistance and have parts
available for purchase if needed as part of the trackside service program
- KTM HMC technicians will provide a motorcycle safety check on motorcycles prior
to the race and will help MotoAmerica regulate the validity of all race units to
maintain motorcycle parity throughout the race series
- Professional KTM HMC SuperBike racer, Chris Fillmore, will attend each event and
offer guidance to each young participant
