Even though this bike is already available in international markets, our country is still waiting for this mid-range sports machine. A new photograph has been released by the company's MD Diego Graffi on his Instagram account where he's posing on the RS 660 with the presence of the same models behind him. This picture was taken at the company's plant in Baramati, India. This motorbike will be launched along with its semi faired sibling Tuono 660.

We can expect this motorbike to be launched with a price tag somewhere lying around Rs 13.4 lakhs. As the motorbike is being imported, we can expect the same specs and features which is available on the international markets. In design wise, this motorbike surely will dominate and gains the road presence with its aggressive looks. The three element LED headlamp setup with the integrated turn indicators will never fail to grab our attention. The beefy fuel tank along with the fairings where the underbelly exhaust looks as a part of the fairing gives the integrated look. I think this arrangement will also become an advantage while leaning through the corners more.
Both the RS 660 and the Tuono 660 will be powered by the company's new 659cc parallel twin motor with the 270 degree crank angle which churns out 100hp on the RS and 95hp on the Tuono. The braking jobs will be handled by a 320mm massive dual discs with Brembo calipers at the front and a 220mm disc at the rear. The engine is mated with a 6 speed transmission and its sure that the bike will be offered with a handful of features including cornering ABS and the adjustable wheelie and engine braking control.
Will mention the full specs at the day of its launch and the motorbike will be offered in 3 colors that is acid gold, apex black and lava red. For my liking, apex black and lava red looks perfect. The manufacturer also unveiled its middle segment ADV named Tuareg 660 which is the third motorbike in the 660 segment and lined up for the launch after the siblings.
