Great to see The Missenden Flyer on 44 Teeth. He’s not ageing too well. 🤣
Thats great xD
Big difference, mossy can ride. Missenden flyer can’t.
Big difference…mossy is funny and doesn’t take him self too seriously… the TMF isn’t funny and takes him self too seriously…
Aw why all the hate TMF is just a normal everyday bloke doing what he loves. He puts a hell a lot of work into his reviews
Mossy is not as tediously boring as tmf
what a fuckin riot Mossy is, always love seein him on screen, the man is a bloody treasure
It's indeed a breath of fresh air.. (ironically)
AMEN!
Personally can’t stand this guy. Different strokes I guess.

“Lets do this bloke because he’s shit ok the brakes” 😂😂
This guy should comment on MotoGP races.. I'll pay for that.
correction, "shit on the fucking brakes" referring to the guy he passed

🏁🏁 MOSSY'S BACK!!! 🏁🏁
Great to see more Mossy mayhem on the 44 'tubes! Really cool little bike too that looks a lot of fun on tight twisty stuff and as pointed out doesn't flatter you like a more powerful bike but rewards accurate lines and big balls.....👊😎

Great commentary as always, Mossy!

Mossy you're a bloody gem, after doing track days on bigger bikes for 10 years, I gave one of these ago (previous model) just so much fun and taught me far more about cornering

As one who grew-up during the 70's/80's, this constant derogatory inflections of "only 44 HP" really irks me. Back then, we could ride 50 CC with pedals that could top 50 MPH or once we'd grown up a 250CC. Some of the 250's were advertised as "...100 MPH" (Suzuki X7) then even after the UK govt meddling insisted we weren't allowed bigger than 125 CC, the Asian manufacturers produced the likes of Yamaha 125 LC which could easily top the ton(so govt went for max BHP 15 per ton)or Italian Aprilia 125 CC with 33 BHP. I also remember being super chuffed @ finally grinding my footpegs whereas now it's all about "knee-down" I did many longish rides about the UK on 250's that were super fun(even with maybe 30 HP)so all the latest blurb about 150+ BHP being "it" is BS. I bought an 18 plate MT-09 Tracer that suits me for fun/commuting/MPG etc etc & will likely outlast me(as my body has been destroyed by being the local crash-test dummy in my cars[12x crashed into!]over the years)Back in the day, tyres that actually allowed you to corner w/o falling off were rare(Avon I believe offered reasonable tyres)whereas such as Pirelli etc weren't available. Frames on bikes were shite, I rode a CBR125 twin that wobbled so much it dumped me on the 1st bend I also rode a m8s Yamaha RS125 that nearly got me killed as mid-bend @ high speed a twat in a Volvo cut the corner on my side & avoidance led to my first taste of soil as full-face helmet's chin piece dug in furrowing soil straight into my mouth, thus obscuring the obscenities I was hurling at the driver of said Volvo. Having said all this, I love biking/bikers/bikes believe it or not & really wish many more in the UK would jump through all the hoops to get aboard modern machines.

Riding the way you were at your age, that's awesome! Respect to you brother!
This and the 390 Duke are insanely good bikes, especially for the money. I thought after riding bigger bikes for the last 10 years would have made small engines feel boring, but the 390 Duke was an absolute blast and I'm seriously tempted to buy one. I testrode the older RC390 at the same time but it felt even taller than my old Daytona which was just too much for my short arse.
Honestly mate, Duke 390 is a beast! It's so much fun to ride you won't regret getting it. Lightweight and agile with a nice punch... I can't wait for another riding season to take it on the streets again.
I have a 2018 rc390, i'm really itching to trade it for the 2022 model.
@mitchoconnell6815 how have you found ktm? As I'm thinking about getting rc 390 2022
Now, if KTM will just make an RC690 so I don't have to spend £20k on a kramer that I can't ride on the road and therefore won't buy
Why not RC890 ? Genuinely curious...
@@Statek63 I love the 690 LC4 engine. Can realistically use 75hp on the road more than 120-130hp. The 690 based Kramer's have been having it away in the super mono classes with the EVO2 R, and it's so effing light. I'd love an 890r too, but the existing 390 frame could realistically take a 690 engine without much if any modification. The 890 would need a bit more work, hence why Kramer asks roughly £20k for the Evo2 R and over £32k for the GP2 890 R. More power meaning stronger frame and heftier components needed. KTM could sell a decent road going RC690 for £7.5-8.5k with WP apex and Brembos. Similar to an SMCR. Update, looks like the evo2r is £26k. Bennet's says you can buy the GP2 890 for £26k though, but I doubt they sell both bikes in the UK for the same price. No prices on the Kramer website and the US site states 32k dollars for the GP2
@@TheRtHonJimStiffOG I am hoping that KTM might build a road legal RC890, based on the LC8 engine and maybe using some parts from the Duke version - but then I also doubt it as it would not be compliant with the upcoming twin cylinder sportsbike class that will likely replace the former 600 class. It's more likely that such new sportsbike class would be limited to capacities around 660/675 or similar, but not almost 900. We will see...
@@Statek63 So, we may get a new Yamaha R9 based on the MT09 triple and basically there to replace the R6, as they can't produce 120-130hp from a 600 and meet the emissions regs. If this happens then other brands will follow suit, as that hp figure is seen as a bit of a sweet spot for sports bikes. Also like most things in life, these things go in cycles, people will buy their rs660s, R7, RC690??? And then they'll want that next step in power a few years later (Which isn't a 1000cc bike, they're too mental to be used for anything on the road regularly and not lose your licence), Ducati has the V2, but it's 150hp and a massive jump from an 80-100hp bike and once again too much power for the road in every day terms. The only thing that'll stop KTM making a sports bike bigger than the 390 is that they haven't made anything since the RC8R and said they wouldn't......I really hope they change their mind as I'd love to have a whole load of crazy orange Austrian sports bikes to buy one by one over the next 10 years
could you not kit out a duke 690 in supersport trim, seen a few people do that with a street triple 765rs
this vid is hilarious, KTM staff look a riot. Bike looks really cool.

I've picked up a brand new 390 duke four days ago as of posting this, and I can say its bloody great. Mossy's right, you don't need masses of power to have fun, it just brings a stupid grin to your face. and I have no doubt that the 390 rc is exactly the same, especially with that adjustable suspension and the aerodynamic body work!
Flyer is literally me when I returned to the track after the roro shutdowns. I’m happy to see him for this review

Glad to see Mossy back at it! Looking good mate, great vid as always.
And 20kg lighter? Why, that's 44 POUNDS INNIT.

Mossy is the boss, what a great complement he is to the 44 T staff.
Absolute delight to watch mossy in action. Also looks like Utd's Manager.
Finally someone on youtube that actually talks sense . Good stuff mate, keep it up
Great video Mossy! You'll be needing custom plugs for your burst hole.....
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
We ❤️ you Mossy!
Love the smaller capacity bikes, they're so much fun on the road cause you can pin them (almost) everywhere & do the kind of things that, if you tried on a 1,000cc, you'd put yourself through a hedge 🙈
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
Love my 390. It may be old, but it gives me all I need in the twisty back roads where I live.
I love mine too, but that doesn't mean that I'm not a little bit envious of the new model!
@@jfu5222 Would love a back to back go ect to see how much better over the original, Is it worth it for day to day riding..

Bloody good to see you back Mossy! Missed you.

Love the honesty of Mossy’s reviews. The race version sounds a hoot. Big gains compared to the standard!!!
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
i just love Mossy...what a lovely accent! He does great KTM reviews,i remember his KTM 990 Supermoto review very well....
Nice one Mossy!
I probably had more fun on my old RD350 LC than any other bike I’ve owned. That was a similar weight (149kg) and power (47 hp). So I can well believe the 390 is a right laugh. My only reason for thinking it may not be quite as much fun now is I’m no longer 8 1/2 stone wet through 😂
I ride a 1290 SDR and a few months ago I got on the track with my dads mate, he’s 67 riddled with cancer and dying by the minute. He beat my ass through the corners and when I asked him how he rides so fast he said, “ I don’t have the energy to pull the brakes” I laughed and had to admit that the speed he could hold through the corners on that old sv1000 was admirable.
These little RC 390s remind me of that, They can bite into turns and still hold a better line than a big bike can. Great little package I think, Would almost get one just for the track considering how cheap they are.
Since ‘99 I’ve known, that having great fun on a motorcycle, isn’t a result of how many horsepower it has. 1999 was the year I bought myself an NC30. I’m actually happy to see that small capacity sports bikes is returning.
And to think yesterday I didn’t know anything about Mossy’s hymen.. Every day is another opportunity for learning!
Some things are better left unlearned...
What a lovely looking KTM, MOSSY you looked so young riding that bike 😆 🤣
Good joke, but that's the last fucker I want to see on 44😂

Fantastic straight to the point great review, top man

I love this guy. I was laughing and smiling all the way… Great Review
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
I've got a 2015, done suspension on it, quickshifter, race pipe etc. As said brilliant laugh for the size.
What a difference this one looks to the gen 1 2015, I had as well. Looks far more premium so amazing they've kept the price from the original.

Great job Mossy! Was that Rok Bagoros showing off behind you?
I had a Duke 690 for a few years, had a blast. That motor in this chassis would be very cool.
Mossy, sounded like you were blown away by 44hp on 44teeth. Love the get out my way overtakes. Haha nice review🤙🏼

I don't ride, I wanna ride and as much as I love seeing the lads smash around on the super bikes having this content helps me see what's out there for me excluding some 50cc thing. Top work.... I'll be on track some day.
Go for it before your to old and look back and wished you had fulfilled your dream there’s loads of little bikes out there that would put a smile on your face just as much as a big 1000cc bike would.
What an Awesome little bike👍.
I’ve been a fan but always a little reluctant to purchase because of over heating issues with earlier models. Too many tales of cutting out in traffic and head gasket leaks. I’ve seen that KTM increased the radiator size on the adventure model with a combination of lowering the cut in temp for the fan.
I don’t suppose that this model indicated any temperature issues during this press release. Especially riding on open roads and track.
Great video 👍🎥
Holy banging off the rev limiter Batman.. Jesus lol.
Solid bike that looks finally promising for KTM!
"This corner I fooooookin haaate..." ... Subscribed haha
I absolutely love my 2017 RC390, but I've had a bit of electric issues with it, and I've owned it from new to now with just over 6000 miles on it. I love how magical it is on track, but I'm getting tired of replacing my crank angle sensors lmao.
2022 probably fixed that. They changed a few things in the newer model.
Raced and rode a 42 hp gs500e for several years. It was a great bang for your buck option.
44 Teeth has the best cross section of British accents of any motorcycle channel. Hands fookin down.
Mossy, you're the man! I know this was a while ago and 390s are finally starting to show up in showrooms. My question is more about the prototype they had there that you rode. Did they mention anything about that becoming available? Would some of the parts become available like those race fairings? Seems like the supersport prototype was the star of the show and I'm wondering what it would take to build that or if they are just going to sell it like that...any insights on that? Looks like the power parts catalog still only has a slip on exhaust, but no fancy bits like you showed. @KTM please release more information about this bike!
Hahahahaha love the commentary! Absolutely hilarious!
I got the previous version to test when my Superduke SE was in at the dealer for it's maintenance. The first feeling : OMG, this feels like a 125cc :).
But the more backroads you ride, the more you lean it over, you realize it's a weapon ! I've never ridden a true Supersport bike, but on the RC390 I felt like I was a MotoGP rider, even though it's power is ### :)

Mossy got a better camera! Thanks boys. Love you, Mossy!

I just bought a 2023 yesterday and stoked to get back on the road.
Love the 390. Such a lovable motorcycle
Always wanted a 390 but was turned off about the head gasket issues. Hopefully they have that sorted this time.
THE Most Perfect Review. Thank u 🤘
Listen! Saw Mossy was in a video and immediately thumbed-up!. More please.
Love my commuter 390 Duke, what superb pieces of kit.

I am a fan of the redesign. I know most people are not, but I think it has RC8 vibes.
Mossy is a quick boiii. Great video
Great review and a funny man .🤣🤣🤣

Great to see Mossy again.
The man, the legend, just Mossy 😆😆💪💪
Never seen you here on 44T before but you are a true journo gent! Love the 'proper' review too. I bet you would love to test the RC8C. You should be given the invite for sure!
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
Can we please get more of this mad lad on screen!!! PLEASE AND THANKS!!!
I actually really love the look of this.
Genuinely interested in this bike. Might have to do a test ride at the local one day
Good to see Shaun Anderson 👍 a top man!
My local track. Expat, your comment on the worst corner is in fact the best one. Great vid can see you enjoyed it. 990 Superduke.
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
such a hoot.... you did good.... great review.....
Will the old fairings and mask fit on the new? I like the features of the new but I prefer the look of the old.
Good to see Shaun doing the translation
Black Orange combi looks 🔥
Always KTM fan....each models looks both aggressive and beautiful.I own 125 duke..really nice.i'm not able to afford to buy a 390.I Hope in the future I will.KTM is always my first priority bike brand .LOVE KTM❤️🥰
Always admired the RC390 from afar. Looks like a great little bike for commuting and thrashing about on but being 6' 4" can't see me getting comfy on one?
Awesome video.
It’s pretty big and wide actually, as a small guy I hate the riding position but it should be a lot more comfortable for you
I've had a MV Agusta Dragster RR, a Monster 1200, a Monster 1100, and Ninja 250. Guess which of those bikes I had the most fun on? THE 250. I'm looking into getting this.
I had brilliant fun on my Aprilia RS 250.
I'd have similar fun on these little 390s.
You are about 10kmh faster down the straight on the prototype bike, nice
Mossy, what can I say you are an 'Urban leg-end'! I'd love one of these, but it would be good if there was some serious 250-400cc competition in this space. The Kawasaki Ninja ZX25r is similar power output, lighter but as focused as this but 'not for the uk market'. I think we need a good uk race series for teens on bikes like these and then 'Surprise! Surprise!' these bikes would have a market. Anyway, keep you end up and don't go forcing anything orange and rubbery into any other orifice!
the bike no doubt is fun, however I never get to ride on my own and my daughter is sitting on the back seat helmet and leathers on before I have wheeled it out the garden. For this reason I am sticking with my S1000R bmw. I rode a TSR 125 round London for years on about 30 horsepower. Totally agree with the attraction of small bikes
Had the previous version following me yesterday on my mt10 and was very impressed with the speed the guy was managing to get out of it.
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
I love the look of this bike. I wish KTM would make one with the 890 engine in it that isn't track only.
how you find my motocross video th-cam.com/video/cnwTdOmsHZk/w-d-xo.html .,...,
Traction control?.. reaaally?! Great job Mossy.
RC390 in the right hands can beat the pants off the big bikes on the track. It can be shocking, really.
Why is it shocking? You could have 300hp and still get spank by 44hp... no matter how powerful the bike,you can only go so fast around a tight turn..big bikes are a WASTE OF MONEY, unless you're paid to ride one or race for a living..
Great review, thank you sir
great work mate
Mossy is undeniably entertaining. But, this is also a good review. He doesn't have a lot of preconceptions about the bike. Too many other reviewers will constantly repeat terms like 'beginner bike", "commmuter bike" etc. for anything less than a litre sportsbike. Special mention for the pliers orifice extraction and the Rok cameo.
..."this corner I fucking hate".... LOL
Mossy's commentary is GOLD !!
I bought a 2015 model this month. Awesome bikes
Hi
What was the diference in spec between the standard bike and the prototype supersport bike.
Do u think it would benefit from rearsets?
Just got through watching an RC390 pull off a win on the Junior Cup over at MotoAmerica channel.
Wow. I have NEVER seen someone wearing the exact same Furygan jacket that I have.
"Alright let's do this bloke 'cause he's shit on the fuckin' brakes" Lmao, you still got it old man !

I'm a simple man, I see a Mossy review, I press like.
Are those bikes already broken in before you get on them? I notice the tach was functioning like a broken in bike (past 620 miles) rather than blinking at about 7K RPM like a low mile new one.
I didn't like the bike at first when I saw it in the day of reveal. But the more I look at it the more I like new RC390.
The new one actually has a slipper clutch according to KTM.
They do since 2017

More chance of understanding Eva than we do Mossy 🤣Only Teasing
Great review mossy 👏 👌 👍
So... that looks nice. Are they putting the 890 into it?
Thanks Mossy, love to see this no track pitted against an original works Manx Norton, the same b.h.p. but would the handling be good enough on the old Norton to give the modern trick KTM a run for its money.
That was a stonking review, loved it so much I’m thinking of ‘investing’ in a 390 hooning weapon 😜

Same here, looking to get a duke 390..I got gsxr750 now but my riding buddy got a ninja400..we do 95% street rides n that 750 is pointless.. the Duke would be more thrilling....had wanted a harley but waaaay too expensive n not much performance for the price
These 390s are brilliant. But having a Duke, i only wish there was a 2 cylinder version, hence why I am waiting anxiously for the 490 series.
Love the styling , good looking bike .

Nothing like a small bike fast...
Still got one of the 90s i4 250s that go to 20k, same power.
