KTM 990 Supermoto R On Road The 990 Supermoto R combines irrepressible power and effortless handling. The KTM engineers did their utmost to develop a “machine” that would exploit to the fullest every last inch of leeway in road traffic certification: Fully adjustable 48 WP chassis, ultralight chromium molybdenum tubular trellis frame, enhanced seat ergonomics for perfect drifts as well as “R”adial brake performance from Bembo all ensure pure pleasure in the curves. Out of the rut and into the race.

KTM 990 Supermoto R On Road CHASSIS

• OVERVIEW Without question the KTM 990 Supermoto R is the brightest star in modern Supermoto heavens, a supremacy underlined by an exceptional appearance, KISKA designed R optics with an orange powder coated, high quality tungsten arc welded frame, black coated swingarm, white fairing components, carbon heat protection on the stainless steel silencer, dark tiain coated forks. No observer can profess the slightest doubt concerning the mission of the 990 Supermoto R, a lighting quick street bike that will give a headache to many a superbike rider.
• COCKPIT The compact and extremely lightweight cockpit is dominated by a central rev counter. Alongside, an LCD display provides data on speed, time, coolant and outside temperatures, and risk of ice when necessary. Other features include a trip odometer next to the digital tank display that automatically switches to counting down the remaining mileage on reaching the reserve fuel level. Two separately switchable trip mileage displays enable practical tour planning. This modern unit provides the rider with simply all the information they need.
• FRONT END The flat faced front mask features a lightweight headlight with scratch proof coating and H4 bulb.
• REAR END The very slim rear end underlines at first glance the sporty personality of the Supermoto R. Pillion riders find perfectly integrated foot rests to counterbalance the bikes sheer brute force. Ultra lightweight carbon heat shields prevent passengers from being injured by the hot end pipes.
• TANK The new fuel tank with its 15 L capacity was designed to be slimmer in favour of better ergonomics, with the filler cap being shifted from the centre.
• BRAKES At the front the 990 Supermoto R is restrained by two 305 mm brake discs, each with a radially mounted four piston monobloc calliper from Brembo. To the rear, a 240 mm brake disc and a Brembo twin piston floating calliper deliver powerful braking performance for the most radical brake drifts.
• WHEELS Highest quality forged Marchesini wheels reduce the rotation inertia and unsprung masses on the wheels, resulting in easier handling, faster acceleration, improved braking and better grip. Coated rims underline the extremely sporting appearance of the wheels.
• SHOCK ABSORBER The fully adjustable WP shock, with its 180 mm of travel, delivers everything needed for the fastest laps. Tiain coating of the piston rod results in substantially more sensitive responsiveness, hence more precise feedback and better grip. Besides which, the reduced frictional resistance also increases the shocks service life.
• FORK The 48 mm tiain coated upside down fork is not only fitted for visual effect. They can be set completely to meet individual requirements and always provide proper feedback from the road surface.
