Verdict:- After a long riding experience of both bikes we are ready to share our views with you that if you looking for comfortable bike riding then KTM RC390 will disappoint you because, The gap in terms of comfort wasn’t as surprising as we’ve always known the KTM RC 390 is a no holds barred, hardcore sportsbike built for outright performance and razor sharp handling. In comparison, the RR is far more comfortable. Despite what its profile suggests, the RR seats you more upright and while it doesn’t lack commitment, it’s not needlessly demanding either. The seat is comfy for even a long stint on the road and feels luxurious after you climb off the KTM.
