KTM India has refreshed parts of its street and supersport portfolio with new colour schemes for 2026. The updates apply to the RC 160, 200 Duke and 250 Duke models. No mechanical revisions have occurred as the changes focus entirely on new colour schemes.

1. KTM RC 160 Gets Three Paint Finishes

The 2026 KTM RC 160 now comes in three paint finishes. Previously, the motorcycle appeared only in a dark-themed version. Now buyers can choose from Ceramic White Matte and Electronic Orange Matte as well.

Orange-finished alloy wheels complete this look. Electronic Orange Matte features a bright body shade combined with black painted alloy wheels. The price remains at Rs. 1.85 lakh (ex-showroom).

RC 160 Chassis And Suspension

The RC 160 continues to use a steel trellis chassis. Suspension components include 37 mm upside-down front forks and a preload-adjustable rear monoshock. These components deliver reliable handling for urban riding.

Braking hardware consists of a 320 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc. A dual-channel ABS system provides safety during braking operations.
