- The KTM RC 200 is the new kid on the block, promising to be a hell lot of fun if you know how to use it and more if that is the genre of motorcycling that appeals to you. Our peanut sized boy racer tells tale of how he figured his #ManMachine #LoveStory.

i hope you guys become the indian version of top gear someday
i hope they don't
cause they are already a lot better than that
and the reason they are what they are now is because they are not trying to imitate anyone
JC Thakur Very well said!
पावरड्रिफ्ट की अपनी अलग ही पहचान है । अनूठी पहचान ।
powerdrift has its own different identity. Its Unique.
Rather hav to say top gear is uk version powerdrift 😜
No.. Top gear is the british version of Powerdrift..
For a second when Rohan pulled out the tab I thought he'd say "OLX pe bech de" :-D
But then, surprise surprise!! Sagar is in with RC review.. *eyes filled with tears of awesomeness of the review*.. :-D :-D PowerDrift , Yu guys r awesome!!
Avinash Naik Hahahahahaaahhahah! That one cracked us up! :P
Boy oh boy, what a refreshing change of reviewing style in a good way(even for pd standards). I think the dislikes for this video are from people who bought this bike just to pose.
This video was the only reason why I bought this bike. Now almost 7 years later still no regrets
Hahaha I swear bro I had an option between the duke 390 and rc200 this video made my decision easier and still with 0 regrets.
How many kms have you put on the bike?
No regrets still riding this machine 🎉
Good concept to show off the pros and cons of RC 200. But the video color palette was off it didn't show the bike or the corners correctly. Your Audi videos are more clear and stunning. Secondly editing was off too we dont wanna see distorted images in between a classic movie. For a teaser it's fine but not for whole video.
Rishikesh Kulkarni Awww! Someone is not happy. How about we come up with something better in the coming weeks to bring that smile back?
Great attitude and awesome and fun review ilove this bike i hope it comes to my country
You guys are best in reviewing bikes
Thanks. Do check out some of our recent reviews & remember to share them ahead :)
The Best Review there could be, of Anything in this world, is this.
PERIOD
Should I Cry or Laugh.
DJ ROY How about you hit us up with a Like & Share? :P
P.S. Thank you for the love.
PowerDriftOff Course,,,, Why not?
I should have done it earlier, Sorry, my bad
and you are welcome
the most sexiest review, watched it at IBW, i was laughing and den my jaw just dropped when Sagar just leans into the curve
Floyd Romao Did you miss out on the braking stoppie? Hawwww!
nope, i was speechless and don't have word's to describe it.
Here is my usual comment...I freaking love your reviews. Very entertaining yet highly informative. Powerdrift is the best out there. Two thumbs up.
What makes your car/bike reviews entertaining is the way y guys put all together with some fun, drama and masti. Awesome, keep it up.
absolutely loved it !! helped me a lot in understanding my genre of biking !! long way to go guys !!
NOW THAAAAAAAAAT IS THE TRADEMARK PD VDO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwesoooooooooooooooooome
*screams out loud enough to wake up the next door aunty*
OOOOYEAAAAAH !!!!!
Vaibhav Gupta Your comment screams enthusiasm. Damn, that was something. ;)
Still better then my shitty Yamaha R15 version 2.0.....
+Utsav Atre R15 is not good?
I don't agree with you brother. I had R15 V1 for 6 yrs and completed 50000kms on it and the bike has no match. The instruments quality, riding quality, handling, braking, engine refinement its the best in the class now i own a duke390 but i still miss my R15. But yes the engine is under powered for the current times when compared to new bikes of same range launched in last 2 yrs but then the R15 is there from 2008.
R15 V2 is quite good. But RC 200 has all of R15 good handling + inverted forks for better handling and more power!! giving it a lead.
what unique style of review!
Make videos same as one
PowerDrift And I thought the Scorpio review was the best desi narrative video my eyes could possibly get. Meh! :/ I was wrong. You are never settled, are you? Love these new concepts and story-lines. Love the way you review these powerful motoring units with a subtle touch of narration and genuine creativity.
Kudos team PowerDrift. A job well done! :)
#fanboy #PDArmy PS: I don't know why this video didn't show up in my sub feed. :(
Mayank Bhattacharya Good times are yet to come. And we shall never be settled cuz the energy will always be flowing. Cheers to the #PDArmy for your continuous support. :)
Hyy sir u too

RC 200
POWERDRIFT NAILED IT
This is not the kind of review we deserve, but the kind of review we need. Kudos to you +PowerDrift , you guys have a new subscriber
Wow, thank you so much!
Do check out the Blockbusters then. We highly recommend :)
Very Good Concept to Review it PowerDrift Keep it up !! Waiting Forward to Pulsar RS 200 Review !!
one of the greatest videos! after all these years, i often come back to this every now and then!
PowerDrift Deshpandyani dabyat Omelette Pav, hahahaha. that one cracked me up real good......Yet again, a legendary video.. Thumbs up guys!!!
The humour quotient of this video is way better than the AIB Roast. Kudos PD.
You guys are the best out there when it comes to reviews and this one set a new bar! Kudos and the review was spectacular as always... :)
Thanks Dinesh, we like to keep resetting them like lap times ;)
Ooops!!! Shocked for the first few minutes!!! I have a RC 200 and I don't have any back pain yet!!!!!.... The iPad God really help other RC Reiters to ride this amazing machine... Thanks guys for this amazing video.... Waited for a long time.....

I can't remember the number of time I watched this video, and here I'm again...
केशरी रंगाची चाक मिळतात :p
#PdArmy
Man you people have a good sense of cinematography , kudos to the man responsible, really.
prasad meher We are a TEAM & everyone applauds that. :D
Ab puri family ki video hi banalo :)
Good solid video again.
I wish ktm guys would change the gear ratios of rc390 and also provide better brakepads.
***** Thank you. :) Since we made you happy, do you consider not being heartbroken anymore? :P
Hey team, that was very well done. Its the best way to answer the golden question of many, when the RC bikes were launched. Cheers!
+Nipun Shivalkar #MissionAccomplished it seems :)
Glad that the #PDArmy loves this one!
Which one of our videos is your recent favorite?
My favorite video is the one on Triumph Daytona 675r. By far the best one. After the RC 200 review, I decided to buy the Duke 200. Cheers!
Why this is my favourite video? *in your own host ten hat's style* I thought you had never ask...
First. The very bold step of marathi dialogue for a very chunky portion of the review. Being a mumbaikar, I was a little surprised and very much overjoyed. Marathi gave that character to your little prick no other thing could have. And we all instantly connected with him.
Then there's the style. It's unique. Yes, it is tongue-in-cheek and over the top. But the last time I checked, we Indians loved that kind of movies the most in Bollywood. So if a couple of videos go the entertaining route, no one should complain. All the statistics regarding rc200 are present everywhere. It can all be compiled in a single sheet as numbers.
I have seen people on reddit and other forums complaining that you guys look like top gear rip offs. I had say no. Not rip-offs. You guys follow their philosophy. And Indian motoring needs that philosophy. Motoring, just like reviewing, shouldn't be only numbers. It should be fun. And if in your pursuit, people are reminded of top gear, you all are ticking all the right boxes as someone new to the field with limited crew and budget.
And that brings me to the most important point why I love powerdrift, not just this video.
It's that you guys actually give a s**t. You patiently take in criticism and evolve. You guys seem to genuinely care about the state of motoring in India. You guys have the basics going right. It's not just reviews. But launch alerts, specials like the isle of man, the bike week, California school, spiti. I could go on and on.
So after this, if you want me to tag my favourite video, honestly, I can't. But if you want me to tag the one motoring channel I have the highest hopes from, that I immensely love watching, it's #PowerDrift. (after top gear, of course. :-) )
So congrats on the milestone, #25MillionOnPD.
Hope to see a hell lot more of you guys. Loads of regards and good wishes.
Thanks +Aamir Khan, the thing is when it comes putting fun and automotive in one sentence, it would be tough to not have Top Gear in that sentence. It has been an iconic show, and we have enjoyed watching it as well. But that is where the overlap ends, we still talk a lot more about the product than chase dry brit fantasies! Rest, we are awed by the comment! :D
+PowerDrift Don't get me wrong folks. My intention was not to compare you to top gear. There are way too many differences. I did say, people are wrong if they say you guys are ripping off top gear's style and mannerism. And yes, I do agree there is a lot of content in your vids. At times, content that no one else has, like the underbelly scraping of rc at high lean angles that I have pointed out before.
All I intend to do when I mention top gear and powerdrift in the same comment is that you both have the heart in the right place. Nothing else. And To me, that's all that matters. So my apologies if I sent out the wrong message to you guys. As a follower, that really wasn't the intention. :)
wow... finally got to hear the vocals ..... :D just awesome.,,,
It hurts whn I see channels lyk Autocar india having more sucribers than powerdrift ...
Those all cant even execute something properly..
Rock on #Powerdrift
Pratham Kuril Time for you to tap the Share button and spread the word. :)
why does this channel doesn't have much subscribers it should be its an awesome channel!
+Debojyoti Jana Ummmmm...lets see what we can do. Like, Share and spread the word :)
+Debojyoti Jana ..yah dude they are giving such trusted reviews and only less suscribers !!! feel sad for that :P
watching it nth time....I like this video sooo much....awesome description bro
Yay! What's your favorite part about this video?
Around 5:20 the wording "KTM RC200 has the makings of perfect beginners sport bike and this focus begins clear the moment u swing our leg over it....." Awesome editing, description...Thank you powerdrift we r waiting for full review of KTM RC390 2017 edition
From 5:09 the video nailed the show like anything....No words to mention
You guys mentioned something about the RC scrapping its belly in the curves , does it really scrape that bad when your lean angle is more?
This was just too epic XD XD Hahah amazing work PowerDrift
YOU PD ARMY, SERIOUSLY GOT AN ART OF TELLING STORIES ALL CLIMAX MAKES AN STATEMENT WHEN "SARGE" ARRIVES,HE'S AN SERIOUS "MEDJAI" IN YOUR ARSENAL.HATS OFF PD ARMY.
+Amit Gogna thank you so much for the kind words! They mean a lot to us!
its not that bad touring on RC until u know how to position yourself correctly i cruise on My RC390 every week for about a 400km
+Most wanted 2 u need to give some time to be comfortable with this extremely sporty postion...
Great video, reminded me my college days..:D
P.S. Guys please do a video on power mods like big bore kit, turbo etc. for Indian bikes.
+Vijay Sheel Awesome! Yes, that is a good suggestion for sure.
I watched the review twice just to hear @tenhut speak in Marathi!! :D #kothrud#Punekar.
Superb review by PD. I think the only group of people who follow the philosophy of top gear. Reviews don't have to be boring... Kudos.
+Aamir Khan Eggjactly! :P
Quality Content.
***** Then do remember to share this ahead :D
IN A series of 11 months I have seen this video 7 times the first time for the review and the rest for the story line lol bravo it was too relatable
+Abu Musa Ha ha that's great! Saw any of our Blockbusters? They have a story line touch to it!
YEAH SAW ALL OF EM I AM A FAN OF THEM I AM ACTUALLY WAITING FOR MORE I HAVE WATCHED EVER BIKE REVIEWS AVAILABLE IN POWERDRIFT :D
the blockbuster 3 the one with Suzuki hayabusa was really witty and hilarious looking forward to the next bike blockbuster the blockbuster cars were great but the two wheelers touched my heart hahah
hilarious video as always😂😂😂
:D Have you seen this? bit.do/GSXS1000F
+PowerDrift Yup watched every video of powerdrift ,thanks for reply am big fan you guys please make every review fun like this
I've come to own this bike for a year now. And it's my first bike. Only one disadvantage, once you've bought this machine, you'll never stop at it. You'll spend countless nights watching the 675r Daytona review by these guys. RC200 is a deadly tease of what you may get to experience on a 675r. It's a disadvantage for me coz I'm fucking poor and can't afford a Triumph. For the rich folks, BUY THE FRIGGIN DAYTONA!
Kya h ye video ? Kya maanu mai ? Bike achi hai ya buri ? Pehle bolte ho kamar or shoulderrs me dard ho gya . Fir ekdum se itni taareef
Awesome review of rc 200.. Fun, informative and explained the users what really this bike accomplishes..Not for highway , not for city but only for tracks... Everything put together in a desi way... Kudos to Tenhut and powerdrift team...
Best review ever for KTM RC 200!👍
Hats off to PowerDrift team for bringing this together.😎
Jayesh Saini Glad to know you loved it! #LikeAndShare
PowerDrift u guys are gonna kill it. Best automobile reviewers👍
Hey PowerDrift just subscribed . Contacted you just to know all about RC200 is it good in city?? And just wanna tell you something YOU ALL ARE THE BEST THAN ANY OTHER CHANNEL.Keep THE GOOD WORK GUYS.And the scenes in the video along with the touch of different language was just a different benchmark.
RC 200 is a true budget oriented sports bike.
I simply love you PowerDrift.
shahid sarwar We always wanted the love to be simple! :D
might have watched this video several times..... man. you guys at the powerdrift are jesus!!!!!!! thanx for the addiction of pistons and smell of petrol!!! keep it up guys you rock
Jinklas Mitra...... Power Drift Rockzz
Perfect review guys. A buyer don't need anything else to clear his mind to what he is looking and what he is going to get from RC200. Perfect and superb concept to presenting it...Thumbs up...:)
I loved the way you initially set the context in this 1, team PowerDrift ! Very tongue-in-cheek, as to what criteria most college going kids would have when they decide on the rc200... 😆😂😂😂👍
Video was good, but can't hold a candle to your benelli 899 vid man! That is now my benchmark- every bike vid that you now post will be judged against that now, for me :)
i hope you are reading this
the quality of videography is amazing, you guys are making the best video not only in india but internationally, so much so that i can directly relate you all to top gear uk which is the most successful automobile show ever on tv.
i feel sad only 3 lakhs views on your videos, your work should be seen to be like to 1 million easily
your work is simply amazing
be it script be it camera be it rider or be it sound & music
you people have excelled in all the aspect
i am very proud to have you all in india,
ps i am a biker, photographer and a videographer
i had to appreciate your work because i know how appreciation feels like
keep up the good work and keep us updated
and if you ever do come to delhi i would love to ride with you, with my group BRAWN RIDERS DELHI

You guys rock as always.
Thumbs up. :)
Arjun Karat Hahahah! It sure cracked us up too. Many more videos lined up just for the #PDArmy. :D
PowerDrift Keep going :)
idk why but i never had any back issues with my RC. Mine is the new bs6 model that i had purchased 4 months ago and i rode it upto 87 km in one sitting but i wasn't having any back issues yaa my palms were under a bit of pressure but it was very minimal and i m not extremely tall either my hight is avg. about 5.6 and i almost use it daily to go to office and so far i am not having any issue but yaaa if you plan to ride it with pillion well good luck with that😂
THAT TROLL FACE!! OH GOD I'M SO ON FLOOR LAUGHUNG! HAHAHAHA BRILLIANT!!
1:21 exactly my reaction when I first saw the RC 200 😍🔥
Never knew comedy was your genre too (Sorry, I don't watch any car reviews)!!! That's an excellent surprise... Please come up on main stream television...
I don't know why I haven't seen this one yet.. but I saw it today.. and reminded me of PD of the yore.. brilliant storyline!
Awesome composition man... powerdrift rocks and the KTM RC series is really a god's gift.. i wish they provide ABS as an option in 200 too.Good job guys..
+anunay vatsal Thanks comrade. Glad the #PDArmy loves this one :D
same happen with me while getting fz or apache 160

+Achu MS Entertaining enough? :D You just might like this more: czcams.com/video/LK2Cm56mKbg/video.html
I really like the way you guys make your videos these days, First the Scorpio's Halloween edition and now this. It is nice that you guys are bringing something different to the overall game of reviewing motors. I mean who wants to watch the same old just spec reading and driving. It is way better with a certain story line and punch to it. Makes me wanna watch more!!
Keep it up guys!!!
Umang Paliwal Glad you loved it. Expect a lot more from us in the coming future. Also, we highly recommend that you abuse the replay button. ;)
U dont know how happy i am right now powerdrift!!!! Hohhaohheohha!! Thank you!!!
Ssly guys you've killed it ! One of the best reviews by far...being a Maharashtrian I enjoyed a lot ...keep it up folks !
+Aakash Kale How about this then? bit.ly/TheDhoomBike

Ten Hut la vishesh jamlay!!! Awesome job guys... U guys nail it everytime! Keep doing this it makes us happy!
harshad purohit Lol, thank you Harshad. :)

Charan Balakrishnan Phew! Quite a task indeed. ;)

Rohan dada aap toh filmo mein hone chahiye ......
Sarge great work man ......
The start of the video is epic! Hahahaha. Glad I know Marathi :D Your reviews never seem boring! Something new every time :) Keep it up!
notyetfrusciante Well. have you seen this? czcams.com/video/laI_WotAIe4/video.html&lc=z132ub2igq2gfzue2235dnnrkm3kenpqi04
PowerDrift Been there. Seen that! Loved it. And yes, I did hit LIKE! :)
After all that criticism why should i pick rc200 over yamaha r15?
I know its powerful and bigger wheels but if its uncomfortable is it worth the pain?
Cause ur gf will be be much more comfortable on rc than r15, for the riders though both are just as comfortable/uncomfortable.
+saarthak khanna It really depends on person to person. Why don't you take a test ride and decide for yourself!
And tell us what you booked :D
PowerDrift I'm going to wait for rc250 or the 2017 version.
Review is awesome but please upload some cornering tutorials everyone is not free to go bike school to learn cornering if you do this it will be helpful to the beginner rider's like me.
Akash the typical middle class Indian boy but don't forget that only middle class people r the biggest power of any country and middle class boys own this type of bikes because rich people owns cars and then they stuck into the traffic.power drift many many thanks from ur loyal subscriber pls keep up the good work.
thats ONE HELL OF A REVIEW guys. *applause*
+Sir Vanlalruata Thanks comrade. Glad to be able to live up to the #PDArmy's expectation!
@Powerdrift.
Thanks for the reply .. I got it fixed the problem was my bike's pick up coil... they changed some sensor there and it works fine now.. it was about 600 o 700 not really sure but it was cover under warranty.
+Nikhil Anthony Great! How was your experience with the service center?
I own RC 200 done 300 km in a week no back pain but my wrist killing and I always wait for red signal in traffic but riding is enjoyable and power delivery is excellent
+S Fabregas Alright. That's good on you mate!
Saw any of our blockbusters yet? For example this: czcams.com/video/7qlxbEnyuls/video.html
After so many years when see this.... ..............just brings back my memories
This video makes RC look like a superbike.I am blown 🤯🤯
I agree with all.. the best channel on youtube... All the best.. n come such lovely stuff coming.
Amit Sawant Woot woot! :D
I own an r15 and i was thinking up upgrading to rc 200
Should I pr should I not??
Whar are the possible alternatives in the similar price range?
So this is all i can say about you guys i know the bike is awesome
YOU guys did an

Love this channel!
Thanks for all the kind words :)
We would love to review every possible machine in the years to come ;)
I'm badly waiting for the Pulsar 200RS review😁
***** Here is a head start - www.vessel.com/videos/f3wpoht4C
Hope we'll get abs in rc200 as well for real soon. like our legends use to says"& ABS which would make this a perfect learners tool"
At 8min 15 sec of this video i just had my heart in my mouth n will remember this wen eva i Lean in too much wen cornering

Most such slides wont result in a crash, unless the surface is loose. I have had my share of unexpected surprises.
