Yamaha R2 vs KTM RC 200

Recently, Yamaha India finally gave us a proper contender in the 200cc supersport category in the form of the all-new YZF R2. Before this, the category was largely dominated by the KTM RC 200, which stood out as one of the most powerful, hardware-rich and feature-loaded bikes in its segment. However, with the R2 now in the picture, that equation has changed quite a lot.

With its aggressive styling, sporty riding position and Yamaha’s R-series DNA, the YZF R2 brings a fresh challenge to the RC 200. It also gives buyers another option in a segment that has been waiting for some serious competition. We’ve compared both these bikes in our detailed reel at the Zigwheels Instagram channel, covering their design, performance, features and hardware. Do check it out and tell us which bike you would pick between the two — the Yamaha YZF R2 or the KTM RC 200?
