Said a sad farewell to the RC8 a week or so ago, and it occurred to me that I never really did anything to mark the occasion.  Changes like this are never easy, at least for me, and this one was particularly rough.  Absolutely one of the nicest motorcycles I’ve ever owned and/or ridden.  Unfortunately we have some location changes in the works, exciting as they may be,  that would have made hanging on to the bike virtually impossible.  I hope the new owner has half as much fun with it as I did.  When I return to these shores again, if a scary V-twin is in the cards for me, I know I’ll have a really tough time buying anything other than the latest version of whatever KTM has to offer!
