Whoa !!!!!

That bike is hot! I had to enjoy that video a couple of times. The color goes with it just fine IMHO. I am sure their flat black would look sweet too.

Seems like KTM is trying to make a statement

I think the black one's a Super Duke, which is a fair bit different (& about $5K cheaper) than an RC8.
I do agree that the colour's just a preference thing, & it's fortunate for those that like the colour. I wouldn't let either the colour or the slab sided fairing put me off buying one, as I hear it goes like stink. & that would overcome any other shortcomings the bike has.

Yeah, the above pics: The balck is a super duke and not the RC8 also that pic of the RC8 is the protype pic and not the production pic.

The black RC8 looks just like the Orange but with orange stripes on a black fairing.

I believe you're only speaking of the reservation of the bike, yes I'll agree that that is not available in North America but they WILL be selling this bike in the USA.

Here's the white one:
